Joe just picked up this rare Topeka Highway Mower last month. Joe would love to find a soft door setup like is shown on this Topeka.
Topeka like these were assembled with jeep parts. I’ve updated the Topeka Mower info.

Marc found this great photo of jeeps positioned outside Weatherby’s sporting goods. The jeep on the left appears to be a GPW, while the one on the right is a CJ-2A. It was posted at the gentlemen’s sporting club. There is more history about the Weatherby’s, sporting goods, safaris, and rifles, but I’ll have to save that research for later.
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was on eBay.
Marc spotted this one. We’ve seen the photo, but his is an original press photo that includes a caption.

Maury spotted this ad showing a famous shot of a slat grille charging over a hill.

A road literally built for a jeep.

Just a few updates today as I’ll be in mid-flight to New York by the time this posts. Charles forwarded a variety of pics.

Maybe it doubles as a golf cart?
“This is an original press photo. The New Jeep Station Wagon by Willys-Overland MotorsPhoto measures 10 x 8.25inches. Photo is dated 07-23-1946.”
I guess even jeeps need a guide sometimes?
“This is an original press photo. H.L. Henderson if frontPhoto measures 7.25 x 9.25inches. Photo is dated 04-23-1956.”
Looks pretty good for a home made hardtop.
