Merlin Hanson, Mike Gardner, and Joe Beadenkopf will be headlining a new youtube show called Throwing Wrenches. Merlin and Joe joined us for the trip to Alaska. Most folks probably don’t know Joe. A testament to Joe’s mechanical ability is that he’s driven his modified CJ-3B across the US and back (a couple years ago) and all the way from Maryland to Alaska and back (via Portland) last year without issue. He also drove farther in his jeep than any other Alaska Or Rust participant.

Here’s the inaugural video. Mike tells a nice story while driving at the end of this episode:

Bill spotted this one. Seller indicates it is aluminum, but to me it looks more like stainless and galvanized steel parts. I’d be the body is a little longer than standard, too. It includes a variety of other parts.

“Hi, I have an Aluminum Jeep Body the body and the frame are in good condition. Motor ran when I pulled it has been sitting out in the weather for a couple of years has been tarped only the past 2 years has it not been tarped. Some of the parts I think are rusted too use any more. Most of the ports in the motor have been taped over. I don’t know the year of this jeep body. No title. 2,500 O.B.O. Please do not email me. Feel free to call or text me with any questions and I will get back to you as soon as I can.”

Ted shared this one. I don’t follow the prices on these close, but he felt it was the best price on one he’d seen in a while.

“1985 Jeep J20 Pioneer

AMC 360 V8, 3-speed automatic transmission, Dana 44 front, Full Float Dana 60 rear axle. Reliably runs and drives, title in hand

See and hear it here: https://youtu.be/MHv6ba9Oj1U

Originally a farm truck in Kansas, then transfered to new ownership in New Mexico where it sat for a number of years. I purchased and shipped the truck to NH in December 2016. The frame and body are incredibly sound with no real rust damage, only patchy surface rust. There are multiple small dents around the body, it was a utility truck but all in all the body is good and straight. The J20 starts, runs, drives, cruises, turns and stops well. I’ve put a lot of work into the Jeep to make it reliable, fun and safe to drive. I had plans to finish and fully restore it but my military obligations have changed my plans.

This jeep is a CJ-3A body on a CJ-5 chassis. I am told it was initially put together by a guy who had a bunch of miscellaneous parts. This is being sold by Kevin, a young jeep enthusiast who helps out at Merlin’s Hanson Mechanical shop.

“I am selling my Jeep Cj. It has the F134 4 cyl engine, T90 trans and D18 transfer. It is an older restoration from before i owned it. It runs and drives, brakes are good, new starter, new regulator, rebuilt carb and other normal maintenance has been performed. Tires are about 1 year old. I have a clean title in my name. Also has a soft top and tow bar (not pictured). ”
