Yesterday I was looking for something when I stumbled upon a Jeep collection in Lindon, Utah,(a short distance north of Provo, Utah) called the Jeep Guy Museum. It’s the first I’ve heard of it. I guess I’ll be back down to Utah to visit the kids sooner than expected, lol! The Jeep Guy currently offers private tours (possibly requiring a donation?), but hopes to move to a new location where they can be open to the public.

“The Jeep Guy Museum is a private jeep collection consisting of vintage to new jeeps from 1944 to 2021. We have rescued and preserved jeeps to keep them in their original form and bring the ones that need it back up to running condition. We have also built very capable jeeps at The Jeep Guy for offroading and exploring the outdoors.”
I didn’t know his place was open for tours either, that’s cool. He’s got a good youtoob channel as well, that’s how I first heard of the Jeep guy.
On the far left it looks like one of those square headlight aircraft tugs the Air Force had when I was in.
Probably surplussed out of nearby Hill AFB?
I’m planning on visiting Utah soon, I’ll have to stop by.
Nice collection! Besides two FC’s, I think that light green one is a Jeepster Commando with a CJ5 front end.
If I had known second generations Keeps gets with CJ-5 front clips were a thing, I would have bought one instead of my M38A1.
A great practical dog car, perfect for my basset.
BTW…anyone else remember the 1970 TV series “Longstreet”? They used a new Commando as the main vehicle. It was useful in hauling the German Sheppard guide dog.
Sorry, meant to write “second generation Jeepster”… not ” keep”!
Good to see he has a 48-49 Jeepster in his collection and now he needs a Surrey!
Also happened across this the other day and was going to mention it to you.
Howdy all! I am the owner of the collection and we are opening to the public in April. We purchased a new building in Fillmore, Utah so we can house all of them in one location.

Thanks for the note Zach! Good luck with everything. I know my wife and I will be through at some point!

Amazing how so many private individuals can accomplish what the City of Toledo can’t.
Looks like a nice collection. I’m also going to try to visit.
Zack, just so you know, apparently on one of your social media accounts a few incorrect comments were made about your pasture green CJ2A and other tractor company ties (John Deere) . I’m NOT the person that posted, but the person let me know that he was blocked afterwards.
Hi Keith,
thank you for letting me know. I’ll look into it. The people that handle our social media have a standard policy to block anyone that doesn’t keep things on a positive note. We get lots of people that have different opinions on Jeep history and like to argue about it. Our page is just to enjoy Jeeps. 🙂 We have enough negativity in this world. I dont want my social media to be a part of it.
Hi Zach, Michael Myers here. I am the person that Keith is referencing regarding the social media post… I screenshot the whole conversation, moreso to justify that I was in no way inciting negativity, but rather correcting what you call internet misinformation. Though Keith, and my over 20 yrs of being involved with Willys research, only stand to share facts….. And as Keith stated, it appears that I am blocked, as I cannot reach any of your social media platforms…. Peace, Michael
Zach, I agree. I see it every day as Moderator for the CJ2Apage.com
Admittedly our crowd behaves pretty well so most of my concerns there are managing scammers and spammers. When opinions get confused with facts, that’s where Joe Friday and the “Jeep Police” get involved to provide “Just the Facts” to the Jeep crowd.
If you make it to Toledo this year for the Toledo Jeep Fest, stop by Mike’s booth. If everything comes together he will have his unrestored 1945 CJ2A-10033 there. (Only surviving “civilian” production Jeep from the CESOR farm introduction) . It will be sitting there with 1944 Pre-Production Prototype CJ2-06 AgriJeep and possibly Joe Caprio’s CJ3A which is commonly known as the Knorr Jeep. I hope to be there also.
