Popular Science: Alaska Fire Jeeps & M-170
The May 1953 issue of Popular Science including the following 2 jeep-related short blurbs:
Cold Alaska has so much warm water (from volcanic springs) that 17 new Jeep fire engines being sent there for civil-defense duty are equipped with special “heat exchangers.” They’ll cool the water sprayed on fires — cold water put out fires faster.
===================
The same issue also includes an unrelated mention of the new M-170:
1952 CJ-3A Smoker/BBQ Stanwood, WA **SOLD**
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $1500.
For $1500 you can buy a pretty good smoker and a bbq.
“1952 Willy’s Jeep BBQ/Smoker. This smoker is tow-able and works great. Has built in fold down table in back with storage in cab area. We’ve used it for many years.
$1500 obo or trades (dirt bikes or boat)”
1947 CJ-2A Rapid City, SD **SOLD**
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $11,450.
Appears solid.
“This Willys classic “military style” Jeep is a “no Brainer.” It spent most of its life in Nevada and has NO RUST on either the frame or the body. Powered with the classic, 4 cyl. “Go Devil” gas engine running through the 3-spd transmission and 2-spd transfer case. Starts easy with 12v electronic ignition starter and runs as smooth as they come. So why am I selling it? I am too old, too heavy, too stiff and have bad knees and a bad lower back making enjoyment of this WWII era Army style Jeep nearly impossible. Time for a new owner.

https://easttexas.craigslist.org/cto/d/yantis-1946-willys-jeep-cj2a/6972014533.html
“This is a great running jeep. I have owned it since 1970. Don’t have any use for it anymore but would like to see it go to someone that will use it. It has a PTO winch on the front that I have used to pull out my tractor, pull down trees, pull up stumps and many other things. It starts and runs great. I use to run it on the highway but I think those days are over unless you put a lot of money into it. It is just a hard worker around the ranch. I have the windshield frame but the glass is broke so it would need some work to put back on. It has been in the family for 50 years. We call it little red and I really hate to let it go.”
