Fantastic Caverns....
« on: November 11, 2012, 11:23:08 AM »
Here's a link to my photobucket album from a recent trip to see teh jeeps at Fantastic Caverns off of route 44 in MO.
http://s1296.beta.photobucket.com/user/FBilljeeps/library/#/user/FBilljeeps/library/Fantastic%20Caverns%20tour%20jeeps?&_suid=13526504133710489053313373467

And a few pics, if I can get them to load...





Lots more pics in the album including some of the old powerplant machinery, a maytag engine, and a display still.

The green jeep is supposed to be either a late 2A or a 3A depending on who I talked to.....and it has been restomodded with an amazing amount of chrome and a repro body with some interesting features.....

The red jeeps are late 80's wranglers (YJ) withe a propane conversion and automatic trannys installed. They drive visitors thru their caves, on a 1.5 mile long path. I was on a schedule so I couldn't take the tour, but it looked like something you would want to see if you had time and the $24 for the ticket.
Owner of the world famous?? Pintojeep 3A and one yet to be named stock project 3A.
Based in central TX and upstate NY.

I love that little green Willys.  Great Christmas display.  

I wish my wife could figure out how to get another one under our Christmas tree.
