David Silberman pointed out the ‘Leaping Lena’ article from the October 1941 issue of Popular Science (I thought I’d purchased this issue to scan, but apparently I didn’t do that). It’s an interesting review of the prototype jeeps. You also can view the entire issue on Google.

UPDATE:  **SOLD** Was $2900

(08/13/2012) This has a M-38 windshield and a lot of diamond plating.

“1946 Willys CJ2A for sale. Originally belonged to my dad, it was his toy. I inherited the jeep back in the 1990’s. It has remained garaged and unused for over 13 years. The title could not be located when he passed away, but I do have adequate probate paperwork reflecting my proof of ownership. Not an easy decision to let it go, but it should be used more often and I really could use the garage space again.

Buick V6, 2-barrel Carburetor, Hydraulic Clutch, Buick (tilt) Steering Column, Power Steering, Tow Bar.

New wheel cylinders, brakes and turned rotors all around. Also new Battery and cables, new chrome air cleaner and element.Runs, drives and stops great. For off road use only. Video of Jeep running here: http://youtu.be/LG6nnBhXKCA”

UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $500.

The owner contacted me and sent a photo of what this jeep looked like prior to the work that was done. It appears this was some type of APU jeep. Note the hood and the holes in the dash.

Perfect Weather for Biscuit Work

On Monday I spent the day repairing Mom and Dad’s tractor mower, fixing Mom’s computer, getting the chainsaw and weed eater working, and more. Dad made sure I was doing everything right, as you can see in this photo.

dad-david-workingOn Tuesday I got a chance to work on Biscuit. I started by cleaning up the frame some more so that I could deciding how the engine, tranny and tc would be mounted. The T-18 I’m installing is a bit shorter than the automatic TH-350 I’m replacing, which is the reason for the redesign.

2014-05-13-biscuit-1

Here’s where I started today.

When I bolted the T-18 to the adapter to the Dana 20/18 (Dana 20 housing, Dana 18 gears) I discovered my custom mount is too tight against the T-18. So, I’m going to have to alter that.
