August 1960 Jeep News

Like the April issue, this issue includes a variety FC and Surrey images.

The March 1956 Issue of Popular Science included a small story of a CJ-2A with a Gutter-Vac installed. It was used in Washington, D.C.

Just some commentary on the Haag Drug contest, They refer to the DJ3A Surrey as a JEEPSTER. Somebody running the contest didn't know their Willys Jeep models. Note that in the write up, Willys news makes no mention of Jeepster.

Well, all the other Surrey features are great, full of historical photos of these fun little cars. Thanks Dave for running them!

Mike, I'm sure the Jeep News editor was likely cringing at that sign a bit. Branding can be hard!

That's one heck of an FC camper! Thanks for posting.
