Anybody Remember Back When?

Built in 45 would have been a MB or GPW WWII-style Jeep. M151's didn't come along until the 60's.

Shows how old and confused I am getting. In retrospect you are right. The one we sent to the museum was the WWll version, Willys stamped in the front grill. I need to find a copy of the old TM for those. Probably on Ebay.

Remember the 1949 Birds egg blue Ford car that was a change from the turtle back fords built in '48
Also cannot remember but did it have the Naugahyde leather seats . the '52 models had?

Pity the Extinction of the Naughta animal in having to produce all those tough car seats for vehicles.
I do understand a few are in captivity Northern Missouri.

When I was a kid, one of our neighbors worked for Uniroyal, and helped develop the process for dying shedded nauga skins.

I had a Plymouth Volare, the model that Richard Montoban sang Volere In the commercial.
I Purchased if from Hertz as a used vehicle only to discover it had been abused, like had wrapped around a pole. LOL they cancelled the balance of the lease so I got it for virtually peanuts.
Hertz claimed that it was the actual Volare from the commercial!

As a teen I had my share of VW's and remember gas at .36 cents (CDN GAL), LOL, showing my age!

I hope you only drove it in a white suit with huge lapels.

Makes me think of the Cordoba Ads
