Title: The CJ3A page and ewillys website inspire me.
Post by: Quebec Jeep on December 21, 2013, 10:15:06 PM
Hello everyone.

Since I bought my 3A 1950 almost three year ago after seeing it on ewillys.com, I got the jeep fever (for old jeep) and can't recover from it.

I got also involved here on the cj3Apage and it kept me busy with website stuff. I discover a new hobby.

So here is my last creation.

http://jeepwillysworld.com/

It is not perfect I know. My English is not so good but who care? It's a jeep thing! But you are welcome to send me grammar and spelling correction.

The idea is to create an online picture book of old jeep with their owner's story.

I will ask you to give me your feedback, good or not.

I already notice that the site is slow and I talked about it to my hosting service provider. I choose a US server to get a proper speed but obviously something is not working right.

Just hope that my new baby will find is way into the jeep world!

Hi,

My website is still slow. My host provider told me that as soon as the traffic and interest will go up on my site it will move it to another server. Actually I share a server with 14 other website...

I added a lot of thing on my website like old advertisements and brochures;

http://jeepwillysworld.com/old-jeep-brochures/

I will add the exact same brochure as John mention here:

I'm the un-official archivist of the Folbot forum and have scanned dozens of old documents.
That is the kind of rare thing that I'd like to see in the public domain.
I've bought things off eBay in the past for the sole purpose of publishing them. For example:
http://home.comcast.net/~jrburch_h/jeep/wagon/54_catalog/catalog.html
Did that one for the benefit of the guys on The Old Willys Forum.
I already put my 1950 Sale data book pdf file also.

And if you permit Ryan_M, I would like to post your Monarch Pump stuff ( http://www.cj3apage.com/index/Accessories/MonarchPump.htm )on my site as well.

I added a section for the Willys World Newsletter from the Willys Club;
http://jeepwillysworld.com/the-willys-club/

You should be able to find the answer of that thread:
http://www.cj3apage.com/cgi-bin/yabb2/YaBB.pl?num=1392308770
 in it.

I decided to post my DJ-6 project on my site instead of having to post it on too many discussion forum. To see it, you just need to browse my blog by category and choose "My DJ-6 1965 project".

Thanks

I just finished my new header of my website. I think I'm getting some skills with paint brush.

What do you think about my Grilles Header?

I left out many of them like;

Willys Quad
Bantam BRC 40
Ford GP
Kaiser M606
Grand Wagoneer
Jeepster commando
Cherokee
Grand Cherokee
Mutt M151 151A1 and 151A2

All mitsubishi model....
And Patriot, Liberty...

Since I want my website to focus on 1942-1990, I choose those grilles.

It's look like more easy then it's really is to make those with paintbrush.
It took me more than 4 hours to did it.

So the 3A website was my test site...now I'm learning with my own site so the next update of the 3A page will have very high expectation! ;D
