Command Vehicle
Sometimes the fastest way into Jeep Shots is to make us laugh, in addition to sending in a good picture, and Mike Galey of Ridge Farm, Illinois, did just that. With a largely stock '53 M-38 A1 that has received new tires, a rear Lock Rite, and a Rancho 2.5-inch lift, he was sure he'd get into this section by telling us what it was built for: "To serve as a command vehicle in the war against boredom."
Daily-Driven CJ-2A
We aren't sure which part of Kraski Gochev's submission we liked more, all the snow wheeling pictures in a '47 CJ-2A that he restored in high school or the fact that its his daily driver now. Seems that his TJ is too loud to drive into work - the neighbors even complain when he fires it up. So the CJ get daily duties, and hailing from Mountlake Terrace, Washington, we can't imagine that being a warm proposition.
A Family of Flatties
From left to right : Jay Fritz and his '47 CJ-2A with a 289 Ford V-8 and Warn Overdrive. The red '48 CJ-2A belongs to Bill Fritz, who bought it in 1950. A swapped-in Henry-J engine, Warn overdrive, and rear PTO have found their way into the Jeep over the years. The black '50 CJ-3A belongs to Jason Fritz and is basically stock, with the exception of 31-inch tires. All three hail from Stoystown, Pennsylvania.
