Last winter I had to go on a rescue mission a ways back in the woods to recover an engine block from a 1945 MB. The original block I intended to use for my 2A restoration was severely cracked. (I still have it in storage for a future attempt at repairing). Nonetheless, I felt it was more than appropriate to use my 59 4WD truck to assist with operation!

If I were your neighbor, I'd volunteer to go out and help you any time you had to do something in one of those Jeeps!

There's a reason it's called Ol' Unreliable

Jerry
I found an internet photo recently that showed a vec 2A with the word "wellwood" on the side (near tool indents), I see your jeep pictured at the airshow as the same word. Is this the same jeep? Were are you located? - home and airport The picture I download was black and white, but you can tell it's pasture green with yellow wheels. Also, in the back ground was an old caboose and a freight house; are you fimiluar with this photo? Thanks, Chris |

Hi Chris,
Yes, that was "Woody" in the pics. I'm in Cheshire, CT and the photo with the caboose was taken in Middlefield, CT. The one with the Corsair was at a show I produced in Stratford, Ct called "Corsairs Over Connecticut". Woody is a 1945 CJ-2A #11802 and fairly rare, especially since he's un-restored and in original condition. Pasture green with Autumn Yellow wheels. I learned to fly in New Haven (HVN), but Meriden Airport (MMK) is closer to me. Thanks for looking at Woody! Jerry Edited by Jerry45 - 04 Feb. 2017 at 11:05pm |

Nice Chris!
I'd always thought a matching set of Pasture Green and Harvest Tan 1945's would look good together. Maybe one day I'll get to the picnic in PA when you're finished with it! Jerry |

Used the winch on my 3B, to drag the old water heater out of my cellar. This made pretending to be a plumber almost fun
I also used the jeep to pack down some Road mix In front of my shop. |

I couldn’t agree more, any time I can add a jeep to whatever job is at hand it improves my mood Whether it’s feeding some calves on a cold day with my wife, putting some seed down on a new pond bank or taking the grandkids on a mushroom/squirrel hunt, if you can work a jeep into it, it can be fun!! |
