From Jeep Driver to General by Jesse Allen on eBay

• CATEGORIES: Books, Features This site contains affiliate links for which I may be compensated.

This is a brand new book I spotted on eBay. I’m sure it is available through other books sellers, too.  I haven’t read it, so I can’t say how many jeep stories there are in it.

“Retired General Jesse Allen saw it all in his military career. An army jeep driver in the U.S. Army Air Corps serving General Patton’s Third Army in World War II, an air force fighter pilot in Korea, and a fighter squadron commander in Vietnam, Allen held every rank from private to two-star general.A cultural history as well as a memoir, From Jeep Driver to General reveals an insider’s perspective of the U.S. military during some of its most significant triumphs and failures.”

Ann spotted this photograph on Facebook and wondered if someone could do the same think in the shape of a jeep.  I told her I’d post it in case someone one wanted to give it a try . . .

1941 Russian GAZ Yerevan, Armenia eBay

• CATEGORIES: Other 4x4s This site contains affiliate links for which I may be compensated.

This appears to be an early GAZ 67B that’s fairly original (though I’m no GAZ expert).  Here is a similar example at a Moscow Mueseum.  The bigger question is whether to bid at all given this is located in Armenia.

“GAZ 67, a Soviet military jeep dating from 1941. All the parts on the vehicle are its originals. The car doesn’t run. It needs to be repainted, the seats need to be rebuilt.
If you are really interested in the car, but want it fixed, we can get it done. But obviously, the price will go little higher.
For the payment, PayPal, deposit/transfer on bank account or contact by e-mail for other arrangements. The car can be shipped worldwide, the price can vary from 500 to 3000$, depending on the location.”

Year? Model? Project Atascadero, CA **SOLD**

• CATEGORIES: CJ-3B, CJ5 This site contains affiliate links for which I may be compensated.

UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $800

The frame has been powder coated and most everything is there, but the seller claims this is a “mystery jeep”?  I’m gonna bet the seller also doesn’t have a title for this. This just sounds a bit sketchy on the face of it.  I’m gonna guess this is a late 1950s/ early 1960s CJ-5 or CJ-3B?

“mystery jeep for sale. I have all the parts you need to put it all together except motor! The frame has been powder coated, brand new springs, shocks, tires and rims!!”
