This vehicle, dubbed a “Super” Jeep, was featured on the cover of Mechanic Illustrated magazine in April of 1968. Unfortunately, the article provides very little information. Hopefully, this is still sitting in someones garage, somewhere.

Charles Bachman wrote a testimonial for Willys-Overland for his Parkhurst Motors company out of Syracuse, New York. The accompanying photo is interesting as it has a mid-mounted spare tire.

Circa 1950 Wagon Foldout Ad

I spotted this circa-1950 foldout-wagon ad for a good price on eBay. The wagon folds out horizontally to reveal the interior of a wagon.

It starts like this:

1950-wagon-brochure-foldout1
1950-wagon-brochure-foldout4

The wagon then flips horizontally to reveal the wagon interior and more text.

The backside of the image shows the exterior of the wagon:
