The First CJ-5

Sparky, sent you a PM. I just heard back from Uncle Vin.

 

Did you get some pics??? Send me them and I Will Host them permanently!

 

I didn't yet, but he's going to burn me a CD and then I'll host them on Photobucket and post them here.

 

If you or Joel want to figure out how to set up a separate gallery of them here, let me know, Sparky.

 

Subscribed.

 

You all are nothing but big TEASERS! were are the pics?

 

Haven't gotten them yet. UncleVin said that he sent me a CD a couple of days ago, so I should get it by today or tomorrow maybe.
:edit: I got the CD today. I should have them uploaded by tomorrow. Sorry for the wait, guys.

 

Enjoy the pics fellas. I sent Bren some additional Willys eye candy as well. I will take much better photos of #1 when the owner moves his shop, which he is planning to do soon. I'll be there on Saturday to bring home my brother-in-law's freshly restored 63' Willys pick-up. Perfect factory restoration, right down to the original interior fabrics. Bren, please post those photos as well. I just purchased a CJ-3A off ebay. Take a look at the thread I left on the CJ-3A board.

 

Ok, guys, sorry this took awhile, but here we go. Sit back and enjoy and thank UncleVin again! I'm trying to get in touch with the owner, a Brian Hainer of Brian's 4WD Parts in Branford, CT.
Here's the link to the Photobucket album for all the rest!

WOW! Those are some really nice jeeps. :drool: Glad someone got a hold of em before some junkyard.

Whats up with the rims of the hanging chassis?

 

Nah, no junkyard will get them I'm sure. They're in Brian's collection. I can't speak for what he's going to do with them, but I'm sure junking them isn't in the cards.
And the rim has a cutaway in it, apparently as part of the display it was intended on being.

 

Ah, thanks for the explanation.

 

Lots of those trucks look familiar, real close to my neck of the woods.

The '6 tow truck is awesome...man, that's tempting....

 

Would love to find out where this guy is, to think these are all right down the road from me ......somewhere

 

I have his phone number too if you'd like it.

 

Very COOL!

 

I'd love the 5 with the snow thrower. That would be great for clearing trails during winter trail runs.
