Joseph buys his first car, a 1951 Wagon

Joseph might look pretty young to own his first vehicle, but after a trip to Moab with his dad Pete, who runs the OWF, to attend the 2012 Willys Overland Rally Joseph caught a bad case of the Willys sickness. As his father knows to well, there is no cure for this dreaded disease.  With Joseph’s fate sealed, he decided to buy a wagon with his own money that he could rebuild himself (with some help from dad).

The wagon needs plenty of work, so they located a good donor frame that’s already been modified and strengthened, saving them lots of time and work.  They have collected some ’76 Wagoneer axles, XJ rear and YJ front springs to fit the already modified frame.  They also have located a variety of additional parts to help round out Joseph’s project.

You can follow Joseph’s build here: http://oldwillysforum.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=25&t=3549

Good luck Joseph!  I’m sure you’ll learn a lot 🙂

Ok, it’s a stretch, in celebration of Thanksgiving I thought I’d post a few Turkey and jeep pics.

1. This CJ-3B was part of a 2008 parade in Turkey. You can see more vehicles here: http://www.military-vehicle-photos.com/picture/number9536.asp

2. Down at the Shonto Ranch in Kerrville, TX, you can shoot your own turkeys for Thanksgiving in a Zebra Jeep: http://www.shontohunting.com/content/zebra-jeep-camera-safari

UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $3250

This needs a starter. This appears to have the original bumper.

“Cute Willys Jeep (former owner said it was 1944). Runs great, but needs a starter. Turn heads and always draws attention. World War II with civilian hood and later windshield. Former owner made a tailgate, which was not with the jeep originally. Located in Oxford.”
