This video demonstrates how many different types of vehicles were participating. At several points you’ll see a rare siting of an Austin Champ going offroad. Note also the nearly brand-new looking Tux Park. Great stuff!

Wow, a 3B with an engine fire. What could have caused that?
The CJ-3B was typical , put it out with beer or dirt , done it myself . No one carried a fire extinguisher . On my 48 Jeep Truck , off road , it was the gas fuel strainer bowl broke . My brother in law was at this Jeeper Jamboree , he went to all of them . He had a 59 M38 A-1 , Chevy 283 , fat tires , painted orange . I don’t see him in this movie . I have a box of his old movies , if I can find them . And the Jeeepers Jamboree dashboard emblems . I think I sold the M38A-1 to an Oakland A’s pitcher , or he looked at it years ago .
Thanks for the memories Vernon! I’m always interested in vintage jeep footage. If you ever find the movies, I’d be interested in trying to digitize some of them.
