May 1961 Jeep News

• CATEGORIES: News This site contains affiliate links for which I may be compensated.

Just one post today. This is the last of the Jeep News papers I bought last month. Hopefully, I can locate some more soon.

This May 1961 issue contains ALOT of Surrey and Dispatcher jeeps: Ice Cream delivery, Pepe ‘actors’, and fleet transportation are just some of the uses. The Kellogg contest fills an entire page with lots of pics. The Truth or Consequences Jeep Derby results are highlighted. Even the Utah Jeep Posse’s are mentioned.

The ‘Jeep’ Fleet line of ads look interesting (page 3) ; I don’t know much about those.

1965 Willys Interlagos Hollywood, CA BaT Auction

• CATEGORIES: News This site contains affiliate links for which I may be compensated.

Blaine shared this rare Brazilian-made Willys Interlagos for auction.

https://bringatrailer.com/listing/1962-willys-overland-interlagos/

“This 1965 Willys Interlagos Berlinette is one of fewer than 900 Brazilian-made examples built under license from Renault between 1961 and 1966, and was imported to the US at an unknown point. A refurbishment was initiated under previous ownership but remains uncompleted, and the engine has not been started. Several items of trim are missing and the fuel, brake, and cooling systems will need to be recommissioned according to the selling dealer, who acquired the car from the estate of its previous owner in January 2020. This Willys Interlagos is offered with a new front windshield and rear window, spare parts, and a clean California title listing it as a 1962 model.”
