Craigslist DNS Issues

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

I had some time this morning to do a few updates, but I have having a horrible time getting Craiglist ads to open.  It seems Craigslist is having some DNS issues.  Hopefully, this will be resolved later.

Bantam Trailer Lodi, CA **SOLD**

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

UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $600

I thought this trailer might interest someone.

“I bought this trailer several months ago with the intent of doing a factory restoration. But its cutout tailgate was perfect for hauling dirt, gravel and those occasional Saturday trips to the dumps. So that’s what I used it for, but now I no longer have any use for it.

Email me your phone number and we’ll talk. Otherwise, don’t bother. I’m not being an ass, just simply trying to avoid scammers and tire kickers.

– Current Registration to my name
– Stored indoors for 50 years based on info from the previous owner
– Tows great
– Solid body, no rusts or holes
– Solid frame
– Modern hitch welded to the frame, but can be cleanly removed
– Tail gate cut, but original panel was used
– Solid Military-style Kelsey Hayes rims
– Frame and underside of body have untouched and unpainted original OD paint
– Exterior body has been primered, but a quick pressure wash revealed the original OD and what looks like a surplus number painted in yellow
– Attempted to reveal the USA number, but stopped. I’ll let the new owner bask in that glory.”

Three Milestones in November

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

A quick update; It was a good month:

1. Total page views topped 11,200,000 as of the end of November since eWillys began.  Almost half of those have been in the past twelve months.

2. In October and November total page views per month topped 500,000.

3. The total number of posts on eWillys passed the 20,000 post mark.

4. This was the best advertising month ever, which helps keep the lights burning and my fingers typing.  Because of that, I’ve been able to purchase a few brochures and other useful content items which I will share over time.

Just a few updates this morning and tomorrow so I can focus on writing.
