Tom need some help with his FC bumper and asked me to post this. He hopes to either locate the brackets and spacers he needs or get templates for them.

He writes, “Recently, I was able to buy a Ramsey Winch Bumper for my FC-170. Unfortunately, the bumper did not include the mounting brackets and 1″ spacers. Please let me know if you have any of these parts. Even if you aren’t interested in selling, I would like to get some paper templates so I can recreate them if necessary. Your help is appreciated. Here are some pictures of the parts I need.”

Steve forwarded this request for help in locating a Jeepster.

My name is Tami. My dad was Howard F. Post, “Bud” as his friends and all called him. I am very interested in tracking down his ’48 or ’49 Willys-Overland Jeepster. It had a Caddy engine and a Buick automatic transmission(??) as far as we could remember. Attached are the pix of his Jeepster showing the License plate (Calif.: DYH 159) and the modified dash. The “pull lever” was the shifter. My sis always said that no one could steal it because it was too hard to figure out. :))

We were teenagers and in our early 20’s when he sold it. At that time we didn’t wonder or ask why or who. My mom passed away and they sold the house about ‘69-‘72 and that was approx. when he sold the Jeepster and his Willys Jeep. He and 3 buddies painted all of his Jeeps to match. All I remember, everyone in town knew the car well, and it was his baby. My dad raced motorcycles, midgets, and more. My Mom asked him to quit when my sis and I were born.

I joined the Willys Overland Jeepster Club about 3-4 years ago. They published an article about my dad’s Jeepster but no answers. My dad helped start up the Jeep Jamboree in the Rubicon Canyon and I had some pix of the early days–as I recall he went up several weeks ahead of time, and I thought he told us they poured a concrete pad for dancing and to set up camp. I got a bunch of pix together and didn’t go much further with it. I had pix and not a lot of info. The W-O Jeepster club has lots of Jeepster and a lot of them for sale.

My dad was a fabulous guy (of course:), but I know he was a great mechanic. His dad was a tool and die maker, and my dad was his understudy and a great mathematician. He worked for Ford when he was 17 ‘till WW2 and was in the Navy with 3 Ford dealers, and worked for each of them from Washington State. to So. Cal. and then settled in Vallejo for good.

OK, thank you for your consideration and for any info you can help me to find my dad’s Jeepster.

Sincerely, Tami

Here’s a trade that might interest someone.

“Trade for older vintage Jeep CJ CJ4 CJ5, wanting a more original Jeep than a lifted modified one.
Let me know what you have, condition.

1980 Harley Roadster XLS 1000 Sportster. Heres some info on the bike. Mostly original, tank is perfect, fenders are nice. More rare model than the Sportster. Blacked out engine from the factory. XLS came with factory extended forks, blacked out engine, 16 rear wheel, Roadster 3.3 gallon tank among a few other items. 

The tires seem okay but they are the ORIGINAL! Goodyear tires. So that tells you the bike has been babied. No leaks from engine around bike. I put on a new Mikuni 38mm Flatslide carb, with new adapters and throttle cable from Barrett Clutch. A few extras included. Sisssy bar, original carb, whatever else I have.”
