That’s one large front bumper! Despite that, it looks like a good price.

“Good condition Jeep Willys. Engine runs great, recently replaced the water pump. Brakes are good, recently replaced the parking brake cable. Body in good condition with no major rust. Set up for towing behind another vehicle. Has a PTO off the transmission which runs the winch. Lights and gauges work, but speedometer does not work. This jeep is clean and ready to head out in the mountains or just cruise around town.

Most importantly, does it fire live rounds? lol … I wonder why the rear rims are a dark semi-gloss that doesn’t match everything else? Learn more about the M-38A1C.

No Updates Tuesday

UPDATE: This should have posted this morning, but the newest version of WordPress has a glitch that causes posts to randomly miss their scheduled appearance. 

Despite Charter Communication’s claim of ‘Blazing Speeds’, last night it was more like tortoise speeds. It was so slow I couldn’t get their Internet Speed Test to work. So, I’d say that calls for the evening off. I’m sure everything will be working by tomorrow night.
