I'm planning to bring a Willys to the show. Don't know which one yet.

UPDATE:
Yes, the Gettysburg National Military Park is closed due to the Government Shutdown. If our elected officials cannot get their act together by the time we do the "Battlefield Tour," I have a Plan B! We will meet at the same time and place on Oct. 26th. We will follow our guide into Gettysburg, where we will park our Jeeps and go on a walking tour of sites significant to the battle in July 1863.
You know us Jeep folk are always prepared! All we need is some sunshine!� ;)

I took my CJ-3A to the Mason Dixon show yesterday. Had a great day looking at all the Jeeps and talking to my friends!
