Gayland visited the First Cavalry Division Museum in Fort Hood, Texas. He saw a variety of jeeps and other military vehicles. Here are some of the photos. I can’t believe the museum spelled “Willys” incorrectly.
2 M-38s and 1 CJ-2A Metairie, LA **SOLD**
UPDATE: **SOLD* Was $4000.

1950 CJ-3A/DJ-3A Thomasville, NC **SOLD**
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $5250.
Jim spotted this one. The 3A has a DJ body.
“This is a project that would be fairly easy to complete if someone has the time. Its a parts jeep to my knowledge an early willys frame and a later model body. The frame is in great shape and body is as well except for a few dents and rust spots in floor. I have a Willy engine that was completely rebuilt and was running smoothly when i took it out. I have tons of parts for it and have done a lot of work but like I said just don’t have time to finish it! I’ve done all the hard work, trust me when I say it will be easier to rebuild than it was to take apart! Please call, txt, or email with any questions as this jeep is completely disassembled and I can take more pics and answer or get answers to any questions you might have! This is a PROJECT JEEP! 5250 OBO”

(12/12/2016) Colored like it was a Fire Jeep at some point.

Brakes work great, Shifts good through all of the gears, Low and High Range work, as does the four wheel drive. Parking brake works great and holds like it should. Horn works.

1972 Commando Jeepster Racer Ledyard, CT **SOLD**
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $5000.
Dan’s got this racer for sale.
“This is a heavily modified and lightened 1972 Jeep Commando Racing Jeep. Full roll cage. It had an engine/transmission swap now sporting a LQ4 Chevy V8 Iron block w/ aluminum heads and a 4L80E transmission adapted to the Dana 300 transmission. Engine/transmission/wire harness/Computer came out of a running 2001 Silverado HD 2500 with 80000 miles on it. 4.10 welded differentials. Corvette radiator, fuel cell, exhaust, transmission shield, suspension seat come with the jeep. Need the electrical done, fuel line run, shocks, and tires. I am pretty sure brakes work but have not tested them yet. I was building it up for short track offroad racing (See cc4w.org) but ran out of time and work has gotten too busy for this season and so i bought another racing jeep. Have $6500 into it so far and will finish it if no one offers a reasonable amount. I’ll settle for $5000 to give me garage space and to see it go into another racer’s hands. ”
