  1. Hello, my name is Rodery and I have a 1950 Willys Jeep Pickup that I bought back in May of 1977. I drove it 72 miles one way back and forth to work for 4 yrs, from Gardena, Ca to the Santa Monica mountains offices, then transferred to the La offices until the Company outsourced our jobs to contract Labor. Two months later my brother threw the rear end out in 1994. It had 523 gears so he was burning rubber he says. With no job The mechanic could only find one with 383 gears. The truck is still sitting with hope of fixing it up to leave to 1 of our 5 sons. Well, on 03/7/2017 I’m on Workmen’s Comp. I’m 63 now. I’m hopeful of driving the Jeep to a Jeep Only event and pray that I can get it fixed. It’s a blessing to see this email you sent me. Enjoy!
