Modified Jeep in Florida
Josh forwarded this ad for a modified jeep. It’s not quite as nice as Wally Cohn’s, but you’ll still spend some time looking at it. Note the plow setup on the front.

Steve’s got his ‘weather block’ prepared for winter!
“With the days getting shorter, and the weather patterns starting to change, it’s time to set up my Weather Block. As you can tell, this photo was taken on a cloudy day. Here are the instructions I place in my kitchen so when I look out the window I will know how to interpret my weather block. What else do you do with an old Willys engine?
Dry Block – Fair weather
Shadow under Block – Sunny
No Shadow under Block – Cloudy
Wet Block – Rainy
Invisible block – Foggy
Swaying Block – Windy
Horizontal Block – Wind Storm
White block – Snowy
Bouncing Block – Earthquake
Water Flowing Around Block – Flood
Flashing Block – Thunder Storm
Missing Block – Tornado
My Weather Block even tells you the season:
Hot Block – Summer
Leaf Covered Block – Autumn
Cold Block – Winter
Grass Growing on Block – Spring

UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $4950.
The motor is updated. Looks in good shape.
“This Willys is in great. Original wheels, tires, seats, body. The engine was swapped for a Ford Maverick inline 6 and had the brakes and steering upgraded. Which makes for a much better ride than the original flathead 4. This would be a great start for a full restoration or you might just be looking for a fun hobby and sunday cruiser. Either way it runs and drives beautifully.”
