3 MB Engines, 1 GPW Engine, 2 Bantam Trailers Waynesville, OH
Roger Martin has some stuff he’s like to sell. It’s best to contact him via phone: 937-477-5270.
- The red engine came out of a Chris-Craft boat and marine setup it’s an MB engine.
- There’s a gpw engine rebuild plate with the rods in the mains are turned down, too.
- I got a couple more civilian engines one more MB engine in there so I guess I got 3 MB engines one gpw engine.
- I have two bantam trailers I took a picture of one of them and then I have the carry-all trailer its built in Chicago
- I got transmissions, transfer cases, and all kinds of miscellaneous Jeep parts in that trailer.
Here are some pics. The MB Marine engine:

GPW Engine:
1943 MB & Many Parts Windsor, NY **SOLD**
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $6200.
Tim’s selling this large lot of parts with a jeep.
“1943 Willys MB Jeep. Rough shape but can be saved. Transferable registration. I believe the motor was rebuilt but cannot guarantee that so you should consider as needing restoration. Along with the Jeep is a lifetime collection of Jeep parts. Fully assembled motor out of a generator. 6 other blocks including a GPW. Cranks, lights, seats, hoods, jerry cans, electric parts, carbs, unchecked tires, grilles, radiators, new seat covers, intake and exhaust manifolds, wheels, windshields, etc…look closely at the pictures. There may be something special in here. I do not know Jeeps that well. Most stuff appears good. Some stuff is not. First $6200 cash takes it all. Bring strong friends and a big trailer. Will not separate”
Day 17 – Tuesday May 15th: Cheese N’ Hardware
<– Day 16 – Monday May 14th: Drive Them Jeeps! | Day 18 – Wed. May 16th: We’ve Arrived in Aurora –>
Day 17: We had another short drive today, going from Columbus to Macedonia, Ohio.
I spent the morning working on my presentation, so we only did a few things today. Our principle goal was to head to Ann’s Aunt near Cleveland for a visit. But, on the way, we decided to visit two cool spots.
The first was Grandpa’s Cheesebarn and Sweeties Chocolates near Ashland, Ohio. Ann loves this place, so in 2013 we stopped here, but it was closed. This time it was open. She tells me that “Grandpa” still works the store, or was there the last time she and her mother visited in 2015.
Though we saw no sign of Grandpa, we did get to sample all kinds of cheeses and other items. Sure, most of the items you can get elsewhere at slightly lower prices, but by the time we sampled everything, we didn’t have to eat lunch. So, it was cost effective for us. We only bought 4 cheeses and some fermented eggs in beets.
Father Thomas Asher Needs Some M-38A1 Parts
Father Thomas Asher expressed an interesting in sharing some history as part of a retreat near Los Gatos, California, this summer. You can read a short bio on him here.
He was most interested in finding one or more folks to bring their jeeps to the retreat and share some history with the kids, but it’s proven difficult to find help. So, he bought an M-38A1, but it needs some parts. He’s got shipping arranged out of Dallas (he grew up there), but if anyone has some parts and can help him out, he’d appreciate it. You can call him at 408-455-1720
I was hoping someone in the Dallas/Fort Worth area might have some of the things just to keep shipping costs down. Bob at 820 Jeep Service got us a few things but wasn’t sure if there was
someone else in this area. The things I would like to find fairly soon are all available on line I
just wanted to make sure someone didn’t have these things laying around that I could pick up for a better price.
Thanks for your help,
Thomas Asher

Day 16 – Monday May 14th: Drive Them Jeeps!
<– Day 15 – Sunday May 13th: Great Scott, Another Jungle Jims? | Day 17 – Tuesday May 15th: Cheese N’ Hardware –>
Day 16: Monday we drove from Cincinnati to Columbus, Ohio, via Roger and then Rick and Paulette’s places.
The first step towards facing your problem is admitting you have a problem. Yes, I have a problem. I have Jungle-Jim-itus. After saying our goodbyes to Scott, our first stop of the day was at Jungle Jims (just happened to be on our way, sort of). Our goal was to explore the gluten free aisle, then check out the coffee aisle. We were fairly well-behaved and managed to leave with only a few items.
Our second stop of the day was at Roger Martin’s house, where he plans on holding another Southwest Ohio FC gathering this summer. Since we won’t be around for that event, I got to have some early hands on FC fun. Roger’s been working on a green and gray FC-170. It runs great, but needs some more body work. He pulled it out of the garage and let me drive it around his property. I liked that it didn’t have a windshield!

“Currently does not run. I think it’s a carb problem. The engine is getting fuel spark and air so I assume it’s a mixture problem. Other then that when it does run, it’s good. Purrs like a kitten. 4×4 works. I’ve never had it off road. Well if you call being on some grass off road, then it has been. The tub looks good. It’s not really that great. It’s been patched… poorly. I got it to drive around and maybe fix later. I can’t afford to do that so it’s for sale.”

Day 15 – Sunday May 13th: Great Scott, Another Jungle Jims?
<– Day 14 – Sat. May 12th: Ann Gets the Boot | Day 16 – Monday May 14th: Drive Them Jeeps! –>
Day 15: Though we spent months planning the Alaska Or Rust Adventure, Scott Gilbert and I had never met until Sunday.
As Ann slept, I started Sunday in Lexington, Kentucky, with a coffee run that turned into a cool donut find. I’m not a big donut eater, but the evil donuts at North Lime Coffee & Donuts seduced me into trying a couple: a chocolate glazed and a sprinkled donut. The Chocolate glaze was cut square, giving it a unique look, but the better one was the simple sprinkle donut. It turned out to be a heavy, yet tasty, not too chewy, but substantive treat.
Each day, North Lime puts out a display of the day’s donuts. This was from a different day than I was there (You can see many more pics on YELP):
instead of the old fashioned donut boxes, North Lime uses branded pizza boxes. I thought that pretty clever and a nice update for the college crowd, as this was near the University of Transylvania in Lexington.
