Prof. Rebuilt starter installed last month.
Registered and drive it every week! Only thing it needs are the items that you want to update and customize for your taste and use.
Price is $7,000 because I now have a 45 MB military Jeep I want to put my efforts into. My new distraction with the MB is your gain as I need room in my garage.
No Scammers or tire kickers. If you know and like Flat fender Jeeps this is a great one to have for joy riding shows and parades, father & son project.”

The engine, trans and transfer case have all been rebuilt. The trans will be picked up this week from the shop. The frame has been sanded and POR. The body, fenders, windshield frame and tailgate is all brand new and has not been mounted yet. The power train should all be mated in the next few weeks.

Stanely W. Smale’s Magnetic Sweeper

UPDATE: I love it when I can combine old photos with documentation. In this case, I discovered that Stanley W. Smale had filed a patent for his metal sweeper. Stanley filed his Magnetic Sweeper patent on January 10, 1950.

From his patent: “An object of this invention is to provide an apparatus of such size and mobility that it can be used to remove ferrous articles from roads, parking lots or any surface over which vehicles may travel, in an effective, speedy and economical manner.

Another object of this invention is to provide a mobile magnetic field of sufficient force to not only pick up loose items, but pieces embedded below the surface which might normally be forced upwardly through the surface by frost or other disturbing influences.”

Roger Martin spotted both of these jeeps on Facebook.

The first one was describe by Jim Burrill as a British Jeep during Operation Veritable.

The second jeep was posted by Norberto Boddy and was extended in the middle (CJ-2L-like). I tried to hunt down “Crescent Poultry Products”, but didn’t have any luck. The phone number seems strange, as it include an “L” in it; anyone recognize that phone number construction?
