The Summer 2023 issue of Dispatcher Magazine arrived in my mailbox yesterday. That cover photo is beautiful (much better than my lousy scan would suggest). The issue includes an unknown-to-me story of how the Olympics helped sell the Jeep Comanche.

Daniel Strohl’s Last Article with Hemmings

Bill shared Daniel Strohl’s last article for Hemmings, which is less an article and more of a wish list of articles he had hoped to write, but, for various reasons, couldn’t. One of those article was the FC-150 Commuter Van, but he never uncovered it. You can read his “Untold Auto Stories” below:

Grant forwarded this ad for a VEC 2A. Unclear how much value is here4. I’ve never heard these referred to as “General’s Jeeps”.

“It is AVAILABLE, don’t waste our time. This is located in MISSOURI’s Salem. Please note this is a column shift Jeep ( sometimes referred to as a General’s Jeep ). I have 2 original motors ( out of Jeep ), you can take your pick. I have a good title for it. Will not sell parts. Might trade in on a side by side, no other trades.”
