I hope every has a happy father’s day. I’ll be enjoying it by taking the day off. Here’s a few old pics of Dad from the Wandering Willys Jeep Club Scrapbook. I don’t know the history behind any of them.

Looks like he has antifreeze in one hand and kerosene or gas in the other. Since he was wearing a hard hat, maybe the club was cutting trees for some reason? Circa mid 1970s?

I think this was a pancake feed at the Region 1 play day circa 1981. I don’t remember that hat.

Maybe 1970? Looks to me like he’s woken up after drinking. He has that hangover look, which is something I never remember him having. Maybe taken at the Beverly Sand Dunes. That’s my sister on his lap.

Dad’s not in this pic, but I thought I’d post it anyway. It’s a photo from about 1980. I think we are above Cle Elum here, but I couldn’t swear to it.

Year? CJ-8 Mail Jeep Palmer, AK **SOLD**

UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $700.

Here’s another CJ-8 Alaskan Mail Jeep. This is obviously a project.

“clip from wikipedia: 
“A full length steel hardtop CJ-8 was made for the Alaskan Postal Service, using right hand drive and automatic transmissions. Instead of the rear tailgate, the steel hardtop utilized a hinged barn door opening to the back. There were only 230 produced and sold in the U.S. It was also widely sold in Venezuela and Australia as the CJ8 Overlander, with small differences including full length rear windows on the Overlander.[38] Steel hardtops used on these postal Scramblers and Overlanders were known as “World Cab” tops.[39]”

If you’re interested, text or call me and we’ll go from there. 
Yeah its rough and its got “a” motor inside the jeep, just not sure what it is and what all it has. You just need to come look at it. And I need it gone.
And I picked a random year because I’m not even sure what it is. No title, buy as is.”
