1963 ‘Jeep’ Panel Delivery Brochure on ebay
Marc found this rare brochure. I’ve added pics of the panel delivery that was for sale a couple of months ago.

This is a Kaiser Jeep Panel Delivery Truck Brochure for the 1963 model year. Unfolded, it measures 8 1/2 4″ and it is in excellent condition as you can see by my photos.”

3 Ford GPA Photos on eBay
Bankhead Highway Memorial Convoy
Gayland shared these photos.
He writes, The Bankhead Highway Memorial Convoy rolled through Ft. Worth last Monday and I was ble to get some photos. Only one GPW in the bunch. M38’s, M38A1’s M37’s, M151’s, assorted Heavies (Many of which I have ridden in in my career) and 1 M3 (I think; I am not a Halftrack expert). The Packard Navy Staff car was my favorite!
