Hi from the Birthplace of the jeep ! Great site here with a wealth of information and knowledgeable members. I'm a steelworker and Retired USAR. Engineers.
I have a tribute to my service Cj7. Loaded with many offroad additions and getting more all the time..lol. I have a Bantam trailer. That was built at the factory with remaining parts of the war trailers. Very early production Civilian, so I am told.
I also have a 1952 Strick M100 that needs some love. It's my current project.

What an irony - there is a knucklehead here from Butler - TN :beer:
welcome aboard - better do this member proud with a hometown name like that to represent.

Thanks for the Welcome ! O.k. here are the pics..lol

My wife found the 1952 strick about 3 miles from home. She bought it for me. $100 with title. I found the Bantam on a classified add site. The elderly gentleman had several military vehicles that he drove in parades. There were no "tags" on it,the front was replaced. It has a few minor holes in the floor. Missing the brake handle as well,ect. One of the gentlemen that restored the bantam trailer in Butlers history center, told me that it was a very early civilian that was made up of leftover war trailer parts. It's number is 154979. I love it no matter what it is. Got it as is for $400 !
My 79 cj7 has a 360,auto, dana 300 tc, with d44's fr & rr , lockers, ect. It's my money pit.... Jeep = Just empty every pocket.

Welcome aboard from a former(most of my life) Pennsylvanian. Butler sounds familiar but being in MN for 17 years or so can't remember where. I was from the Morrisville, Levittown, Quakertown, Perkasie areas. NE of Philly not far.
