VEEPSTER Builder’s Guide and Assembly Manual

This 48 page VEEPSTER Builders Guide & Assembly Manual was listed on eBay the other day. It’s a detailed document on how to build a VEEPSTER with the kit supplied by Sun Valley Autotech. There’s no date on it. Learn more about VEEPS, Scamps, VEEPSTERs and eVEEPSTERs here.

Glenn M. Rogers, Morrison, Newgren Snowplow

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

UPDATE: This is an a rewrite of a couple different brochures to document the snow plow and scraper relationship between the Glenn M. Rogers Company, the Morrison Railway Supply Company, and the Newgren Company.

I believe Morrison manufactured the Snowplow and Scraper based on a Rogers design and the completed item was marketed through the Newgren Company. As I’m no expert on these plows, or the relationship between these companies, this is all conjecture based on the brochures.

Here are several different brochures through the years and a couple Sno-Dozer data plates at the very bottom. This first brochure shows the Glenn M. Rogers company marketing the snow plow. This 1948 brochure does not mention the Morrison company.

Scan10126-glenn-m-rogers-earth-scraper-plow

Scan10127-glenn-m-rogers-earth-scraper-plow

In this brochure, also from 1948, it appears Newgren is offering a Roger’s plow setup that’s been combined with Monroe hydraulics (with three different hydraulic options no less).

newgren-morrison-snow-plow-lores1 newgren-morrison-snow-plow-lores2

There’s no date on this brochure, but in it Morrison is now credited with the manufacturing of the Rogers design, with Newgren still marketing the package. There’s no mention of the hydraulic options. I am leaning towards this being a circa 1949 – 1951 brochure. This brochure may have introduced the “Sno-Dozer” brand name.

“For sale 1960 FC 170 DRW. I bought this just the way it is. I got the 226 Super Hurricane unsiezed and I am starting the restoration. It has the add-a-wheel type dually setup that allows the same wheels to be used all around. This includes a clear TN title, and extra frame with an automatic transmission and transfer case.

The price will go up as more of it gets completed. I am updating my ad to show the progress to this point. I have all new gaskets for engine, hoses and belts, fuel tank with sending unit and line for the fuel and brakes, mounts for the engine and transfer case.

I ordered a windshield which should be here in a couple of weeks. I’ve got the engine cleaned up, painted and moving freely. I also cleaned up and painted some of the frame.”

“This is a very nice 1965 jeep FC 170. It has had some minor rust repair and although it is not a professional paint job, looks good and is a great driver. The odometer reads 49,400 miles which I believe to be correct. It has its original six cylinder engine with the original transmission and transfer case. Mechanically, it is in good condition and starts, stops, and drives as it should.

UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $900.

Terry pointed out that the larger parking lights suggest this is more like a 1969. Per Colin, the “V4” engine is probably just a typo, as the V and F are near each other.

Here’s a really rare DJ-6 project at a good price.

“This is a very rare 2wd Jeep that has the original Hurricane V4 Engine. The starter is missing and it needs some wiring work done but the engine is not locked and should run. I was planning on slamming it to make it a one of a kind! Title has been lost but would not be hard to get one”
