My first scout parade with the jeep! I had 13
people in the jeep and trailer for this event consisting mostly of Cub
Scouts and Tiger Cubs from a friend's local pack/den. This was the
first 'real' test of the jeep in a parade hauling people and it worked
pretty well. One small gremlin appeared towards the end of the
parade and it began to run a bit rough. More on that later... |

A bit further up the parade route in front of the
historic Paramount Theater on Congress Ave. My friend Tim is
riding shotgun and his wife Trish is in the back looking at the camera. |
