Actually, I do not know if the videos below are of off road racing in South America. I just saw Ecuador in there somewhere. Is your spanish better than mine? Where are these races? No matter where the location, they look like a lot of fun! They remind me of the obstacle races and wheel to wheel races that I used to attend with my parents in the 70′s and 80′s. There is no big suspension travel…just a lot of people out having fun! I see Jeeps, Toyota Land Cruisers, a 66-77 Ford Bronco and even the odd full size truck.

How about these moss covered Willys Wagon and Jeep CJ-5? Are they worth saving? As a photographer, they are a dream. As a Jeep enthusiast, it saddens me. Via JeepForum.com

Best off-road vehicle I ever owned. 1956 CJ5 3spd, 134 with an oil bath air cleaner, twin stick, 5.38 axle ratio, drums all the way around, manual everything, heater and defroster were worthless, totally stock except for wheels, tires and custom roll cage.

We recently came across a little known off road racing video that was produced by Jeep in the 70′s. Action, Out Of Sight covers a variety of off road racing across the country. Everything from desert races to family play days featuring obstacle course races. Remember the powder puff races, terra tires and 3 inches of wheel travel? This video is for you! What do you think of it?

1956 Willys – Jeep CJ5 playing on the coal refuse banks at Blackwood in the 80′s. Facebook users, does this photo look familiar? Via…

In 1959, Life magazine photographer JR Eyerman tagged along with a Colorado Jeep club. The following photos appeared in the December 1959 issue of Life magazine. Thanks to Ewillys.com for the photos!

Members of the Great Lakes 4×4 forum have posted some awesome photos from their four wheeling adventures in the 80′s. l find it interesting to go back in time…do you have any photos that you would like to share?

Well, it is not really a barn find Jeep CJ-5 camper, but it might as well be! Off Road Action reader Jeep Looker found this factory camperized 1969 Jeep CJ-5 on Ebay and posted on the Jeep CJ-5 Camper restoration article. This is probably the most rare Jeep as only 336 of these were made in 1969 only. I have never seen one in person and have seen very few photos of camperized Jeeps. Of course, this one needs a complete rebuild, but is has so much potential! The problem is that if I purchased and restored it, I would not want to take it off road and go camping. Knowing my luck, I would end up putting over a cliff like this driver almost did in these vintage Jeep CJ-5 camper photos. Imagine restoring one of the most rare jeeps, then driving it off a cliff….

We had lots of interest in our recent article about the restoration of a CJ-5 with a factory installed camper. Leo, one of our readers, directed us to Mike Leavensworth’s Flickr page. There we found photos of a camperized Jeep CJ-5 about to roll off a cliff! These photos were taken in 1969. Does anyone know more about this incident?
