Puzzle Jeep

• CATEGORIES: Features, toys This site contains affiliate links for which I may be compensated.

I bought this wooden puzzle jeep the other day.  It came assembled, so of course, I took it apart.  It turns out that putting it together wasn’t as easy as I thought, but I did get it together.  You can see me celebrating my ‘victory’ (well, that’s the fuzzy version of me — I am celebrating no-shave November)

The Jeep Board Games and Puzzles

• CATEGORIES: Features, toys This site contains affiliate links for which I may be compensated.

This rare game was listed earlier this month at a live auctioneers.com.  It didn’t sell.  I contacted the auction company and was told the consigner isn’t sure whether they will list it again or not.  You can also learn more about the Jeep Board at the CJ-3B Page.

“Rare first edition the only one I can find is in a museum The Jeep board a second World War period board game produced by the George S Carrington Company of Chicago Illinois usa in 1943 The game is complete with its original components comprising box rulebook and pegs”

This has already hit $110 . . .

“if your looking for a very nice Antique or Vintage 1960,s Tonka Jeep Wrecker diecast model toy this is it! this is a 1960’s Model Jeep Wrecker made by Tonka toys. it is about 10 inches long by 6 inches high,and about 5 iches wide something like a 1/16 scale. this vintage collectors Jeep is very rare it is almost like in new condition,only for a few small spots of paint missing and they are very small. and this also comes with its original Box and is also in good condition and its rare to find a Jeep in this condition with a original box this nice also. I have added many pictures to show how nice this Jeep is and there is no rust at all on it also as you can see from top to bottom of Jeep. I am selling this for a friend that needs money pretty bad or he would not be wiiling to sell this special Jeep, for he was giving this from his Grandmother in the early 1960’s and has kept it in storage and never really played with it, it also has the original string and hook from the Jeeps wrecker. he going to star it at a great starting price well below its worth.”

Surrey Friction Jeep on eBay

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

Here’s a neat friction Surrey Jeep.

“Vintage Pink Surrey Willies Overland Jeep CJ Wrangler Scale Metal Friction Model!
Please view the images for condition.

Here we have an awesome tin friction car modeled after some old Jeep, not sure of the exact model. Friction motor was locking up at first but appears fine now and seems to work alright. Looks like there may have been a top over the passenger compartment at one time as there are six of the typical tin holes for extra parts to fit into on the rear of the jeep and the windshield frame. Overall great condition, might need some cleaning in the tight areas and does show some minimal wear. No maker mark or country of origin stamp on this one. Totally excellent jeep!!”
