First official show

Here is some photos of my first official show.

I was with the Club VASL (Voiture ancienne du Saguenay Lac-St-Jean). We were five Willys at the show. One M38, two CJ3A and two CJ2A.

Me with my CJ3A 1950. I think it was the most original Willys at the show.

Here is the CJ3A dressed as an  M38 1953. It was a good thing that we were side by side. I was able to tell people the difference between a civilian jeep and a military one.

Here is a CJ2A 1948. It has a new body and has some mechanical part from a CJ5 like the differential and brake. It also has an overdrive.

I didn’t took the photo of the other CJ3A.

Anyway, it was a good show and a very good day. I enjoy it.

Here is my Cj5 diesel parts jeep

Some pictures and details I found about it.

Based on my research, this jeep was built in November 1966 and it was the second. As you can see it here (Serial number documents from CJ3B.info), not very many diesel jeep was build.

A look to the motor;

Here is the engine serial number 2509325. It’s hard to read, I know. I will try to take a better picture.

I found this tag in the parts book. It’s mention that the engine serial number is really 2509325.
