Bill shared this video about the origins of the Land Rover. The early footage is particularly interesting.
Camping in the 1970s
Blaine shared this post showing a vintage camping thread from the 1970s. If like me, you camped with a motor home, I expect this will feel very nostalgic. There are even a few jeep pictured. There’s some great Utah/Colorado scenery as well.

Look over pictures to see the exact item you will receive and to determine the overall condition of this item.:
1960 CJ-3B Las Cruces, NM **SOLD**
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $5500. Not surprisingly, this didn’t last long.
Seems worth a look at this price.
“New parts within the last two years:
New aluminum radiator
New windshield
New battery
New toyota starter (better than stock)
New master cylinder
New tires
New fuel pump
New throw out bearing
and probably more I forgot…
This is a 1960 Willys CJ-3B. It is by no means perfect, but starts right up and would probably drive anywhere you want as long as you don’t want to go fast.
The body is fair, the interior is pretty good.
The motor runs great, the brakes work but pull to the left. The tires are reproduction vintage, so they’re only a couple of years old but look like OEM. The lights all work, and I’ve got a clear NM title.
The speedometer was broken when I got it, I replaced it with a different one, I have no idea what the actual mileage is, but you can tell how slow you’re going!
I’m asking $5500, and would consider partial trades for ATV’s, dirt bikes, Willys parts, maybe others.”
1955 CJ-5 Riverton, WY $4900
UPDATE: Price dropped to $4900.

“1946 Willys Jeep. This Jeep only has 11,488 miles since being restored. It’s in excellent condition and a lot of fun to drive. It has a GM V-6 engine, 3 speed manual transmission and a Ramsey Winch. This Jeep has been kept in a climate controlled garage since 1990. Just had the carburetor rebuilt, a new fuel pump installed, the radiator drained with new antifreeze installed, a complete tune up and new Goodyear Wrangler tires installed on mag wheels with a matching spare. The body is in very good shape with no rust and the paint is a 9 out of 10. All lights work including blinkers and the windshield wipers work. This thing will go anywhere you want to go and get you back! It has a 3 speed manual transmission with hi-low range, 2wheel drive-4 wheel drive selector and PTO engage shifter. I have an aluminum top that was custom made for it that is not pictured but comes with it. It runs very good and shifts smoothly. I have the title in hand. Asking $15,500. Located a few miles south of Tyler in Whitehouse.”
