“These are really great. Late 50’s or very early ’60’s — 3 pieces: 11″ Willys Jeep, 10.5″ Searchlight trailer (complete but insides were rotted so I rewired it and the light works now) & 18″ Troop transport truck”

I never had one of these growing up.
“Antique toy jeep. Approximate age 70 yrs. Original paint. Right tip of front bumper missing/broken off. Pop-up windshield missing. 10.25″ Long X 5.50″ Wide X 3.50″ High.”
Here’s a very unusual Go-Kart/Toy/Lawn mower (strange combo) on Ebay for $9,995 that was spotted by a reader. I did a quick search to see if I could find the museum that houses the other one of these prototypes, but couldn’t find it. I have no idea what this is worth or whether this is really what the seller says it is.
“For sale is a unique Jeep Jr. built by wheel horse for the Jeep company in 1978. Only three were ever made. One is on display in a museum, one is destroyed, and one is sitting in my garage. The Jeep Jr. runs and drives and has been well maintained over the past thirty years. This Jeep is truly a collectors item. This jeep jr was produced as a prototype in 1978 for American motors and is an actual lawn mower. The jeep goes pretty fast up to 25 mph, and even faster if set up right. Perfect for car collector. Can be driven on street or grass….”
“Vintage 1940’s Willys Jeep from MARX Toys. Closet fresh. Jeep measures 11 1/2″ long hitch to front bumper, 5 1/2″ wide and 5 7/8″ from wheel to top of windshield. Push on the steering wheel and the horn honks. This toy was definetly played with in it’s day, but very cool…. ”
