Here’s another CJ-5 that’s got the Jeepster Commando grille.

“1957 Willys CJ Jeep. Oldy but goody. Original 4 cyl engine -runs good. Electric fuel pump. 12v alternator. May need a starter and a clutch before long. I have replaced the old split rims and put on radial tires. Also have replaced original lock outs with new Warn lock-outs. Use it as it is or would make a great project to restore or use for parts.

Yes, the readers of “Finding Virginia” now span from the Northern reaches of Norway, thanks to Even, and to the Southern region of South Africa, thanks to Claus.  There are even a few books at points in between the two!

Even wrote to tell me he was sharing his copy of my book with a friend of his named Reider Haugen.  He added, “Reidar is among many Jeepers in Norway that keep himself updated with Ewillys every day  He is also one of the members of Flatfender Fellows here in Norway. I brought my sample of “Finding Virginia” for him to have a look as you see from the picture.

Reidar is almost done with his very nice Willys Utility Delivery with a GM engine and some Scout parts underneath.  This is going to be a nice daily driver next to his Willys Pickup Truck sporting a Volvo engine. Remember we are close to the Swedes . . .

In the middle you can see my Jeep Cj-7 Golden Eagle that I have owned for excactly 24 years today. 

Now you know how far your book has spread around the world! We both wanted to thank you for the best webpage ever for us Jeep-enthusiasts”

Thanks guys, I love the picture!
