Cletrac M2 in 1943
Update: this looked like a modified MB to me at first, but smarter folks than I straightened me out!
Kees Heids spotted this ‘tracked jeep’ in a Frontline segment on WWII. It looks different from the O’Laughlin.
You can see the jeep between timestamps 11:55 – 11:58. It appears only for a brief couple of seconds.

Man Killed When Vintage Jeep Falls off Block

Patrick spotted this story.
The Ridgecrest, California, earthquake resulted in a one death. The man who died was working on a flat fender when (they presume) the quake knocked the jeep off of the jack and blocks and onto him. I couldn’t say if he was an eWillys reader, but none-the-less my deepest sympathies go out to his family.
