Parts Trip #2 - March 2006 (continued)


This is Travis. He was sad to see it go, and didn't want to be in the photo.
A once-in-a-lifetime barn find. 1944 Ford GPW sitting in hibernation. Not a spec of rust and only 3 minor dents.
98% complete, still has the 1944 dated lube order under the hood and the original engine crank on the rear panel.
A huge thank you to Travis for allowing me to purchase and keep his Grandpa's memory alive.


You can't see the yellow paint on the cab enclosure, but it's there.
We think it may have been a follow me jeep at an air base. Enclosure was made out of aircraft aluminum and riveted like an aircraft too.


Seeing the light of day for the first time in over 8 years. I let Don steer it out of the building. He was just as excited as I was, and I had the camera.


Headed for the semi. The family did not want to watch. Grandpa bought this just after the war, and it was only used for occasional hunting trips.
Always stored indoors. Odometer only shows 16,200 miles.


Gingerly being loaded onto the semi for the trip back to it's new home in Minnesota.


The first load getting tied down. No, the Chevy is not mine, that was purchased by Jeff.
This load consisted of an M5H6 International cargo box loaded with 2 M5H6 cabs and front clips, and a ton of other loose small Dodge and Jeep parts.
Jeff found a bunch of old Chevy stuff too.


All tied down and just ready to depart. Jeff and Don survey the tie-down job.

But wait, we aren't finished yet ...
