Vintage SoWal - Babo on the Beach in the Blue Goose

This jeep was called the "Blue Goose" and was the best in a long line of beach 4WD vehicles. My grandmother, Babo, is behind the wheel in front of my cousin Maunsel White's, house. Since the windshield had not yet rusted off, this was probably around 1970 or 1971.

My brother Keith pretty much learned how to drive behind the wheel of this jeep on the old dirt roads of Seagrove. We did the natty white hood ornamentation and fender striping ourselves no doubt using house paint and a brush. This was a 1949 CJ2A.
