1950 Flattie Klamath Area, OR $40,000

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

The seller seems to be listed in the Klamath, Oregon, area, but is listing the jeep in California (probably due to the price). Looks like a nice rig. The jeep looks familiar, but I couldn’t find it in my archives.

“Registered as a 1950 Ford but is actually an early 1940’s. It has been painstakingly rebuilt from the body up by owner. Updated axles, transmission and engine. Too many upgrades to list but will answer any questions when you call.

Asking $40,000 since owner currently has $50,000 invested. Less than 1,000 miles since completion of rebuild.

Please contact me if you have any questions or would like any further information.”

Just A Few Updates

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

No updates today, but I did recycle a few old posts below. Ann’s grandfather passed away a couple days ago and his funeral was yesterday (lots of family in town last night). He lived a full life, so more relief than sadness that his suffering is no more.

1953 Photo and Story from Alaska

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

Paul’s Goddess is always watching jeep photos. This photo includes a good story. This photo and story was assembled by Laurel Bill and posted to Facebook. I couldn’t locate an original story and link on Laurel’s website.

Alaska-photo-deborah

“A group of Cordova Airlines passengers boarded jeeps at the May Creek Airfield in 1953 to go check out the ghost town of McCarthy and the old mining town of Kennicott where the Kennecott Copper Mine had operated. The two men in uniform were the pilots of the plane that flew these folks to the area, and the caption said they were having just as good a time as any of the passengers.

McCarthy was the turnaround station for the Copper River Northwestern Railroad, and hotels, restaurants and stores quickly popped up. Since no gambling or drinking alcohol was allowed in the mining town of Kennicott, McCarthy offered many diversions for the miners and railroad workers with its saloons and “red light” district.

At its peak, about 800 people lived in the town. But when the copper mine closed in 1938, McCarthy became a ghost town.”
