We have all heard the infamous story about the chance to purchase a Willys army Jeep in a crate for $50. Have you ever met someone that had gone through with the transaction and actually purchased one? I thought not. The folks at Olive Drab did a neat article that believe it or not involved a lot of research on the subject!
I actually know someone who did purchase a willys jeep in a crate. It is ww2 surplus and he has had it for over thiry years and it is still in it’s crate. I have no idea how much he payed for it but dont try to get it for fifty dollars. ya might get shot.
It is still in the crate? Awesome!
