Here are a few photos of my two Jeeps in Woodhaven, New York. The 1945 Willy's hasn't seen daylight since 1951 until I acquired it from its 93 year old (Pearl Harbor survivor) owner who had it stored in a garage all those years. The 1947 was rescued from a gas station that went out of business. I am still in the process of getting the two road worthy. With the help of Kaiser Willy's, it shouldn't take long before they are on the road. More information on these jeeps to follow as the work continues.

Mike, I was asked for pictures. Here are a few. I have many. We also have 2 full cabinets of toy flat fender jeeps from 3/4" to 12", metal, plastic, new, old, but mostly green. My dad bought our jeep in 1966 for $600 at a used car lot. He wanted something to tow behind his truck & camper to use up elk hunting in the back woods of Washington state. My wife and I dated in this jeep and we went on lots of outtings with it. My dad passed away in 1976 and my mom gave it to me. We rebuilt it in 2002/2003. We've won a few trophies and plaques at local car shows but I still use it the woods each fall. Here are a few pictures of our 1942 Willys MB. Thanks, Gary & JoAnne Christensen Des Moines, Washington
