I spotted this 1950 picture on the Buckles Blog, a blog that presents circus history from all over the world.  I with this picture was bigger.  According the blog post, “Here we see a Jeep with a power take-off in the process of raising the sides of each seat wagon. The outer corners were supported with long braces and then the front end of each vehicle would be lowered to form a grand stand.”

This ad appeared in volume 2 No. 13 issue of Montana Sports Outdoors of Missoula, MT. The magazine includes a full page ad for an unusual ‘Jeep’ being endorsed by UNITED CATTLE COMPANY OF BIG SANDY. I can’t imagine this ad ran in too many magazines. The text of the ad notes that the cattle company was purchasing its 18th jeep.

Eric spotted this one.  The seller doesn’t want to junk this.  There could be a little value in this poor, sad jeep.

“Old Willys Jeep. ROUGH SHAPE. Might be good for parts. Would like to see it used instead of going to the crusher. Any interest call 617-898-7440”
