Someone sent me this on fb. It's supposed to be the only original jeep loader. Not sure how true that is but it's interesting.

I think that shot was taken last June at the 8th Willys Jeep Rally. There was also an article in the Dispatcher Magazine on its construction.

How much work can you really DO with that. Looks like it weighs half as much as the whole jeep!

I sold mine to Todd Kerzic. It think it looked much like regular snow plow cyl with up and down pressure.
Mine wasn't that tall.

Hi All, Yes, The MAHL Willys Jeep loader exists today at the home of its maker, Standard Iron and Wire Works in MN. I sure had fun at last year's Willys Jeep Rally presenting the history of this unit. A video of it in operation was recently on one of the computer news sites. I talked to George recently, a retired SI employee, who brought it to the show. At that time SI had no plans to display at a Willys show this year. Contact me if you are planning a Midwest Willys event and I'll put you in touch.
