The Boston Top, an Aluminum Hardtop

UPDATE: Mystery solved. I found a couple brochures about this top. They were published in a 1947ish Willys Overland Equipment Book (thanks to Jon for letting me scan that particular folder). The suicide doors were original to this top. Examples of The Boston Top below:

H.C.L. Sieberg Netherlands “Peace Jeep” Importer

• CATEGORIES: Airborne Lightweight Jeeps, Features This site contains affiliate links for which I may be compensated.

The Netherlands firm of H.C.L. Sieberg began selling jeeps in 1946 after acquiring 1400 jeeps from an army depot. The firm bought an additional 1000 jeeps. In May of 1946 Director L.F.J. Mählmeijer visited Toledo to secure an agreement for supply Sieberg with parts. Sieberg got permission to import four CJ-2As, called the “peace jeep” in the Netherlands, for demonstration purposes. It was an uphill battle, but overtime, the government allowed the company to import more jeeps for agricultural purposes.

Below are some examples of Sieberg brochures printed in Dutch. Thanks to Charles for sharing these photos. The photos and the history was published at conam.info in Dutch. You can read an english translated version of the page here.

UPDATE: Price dropped to $2700.

(08/24/2015) This was owned by Evil Kneivel’s father-in-law. It doesn’t run at the moment, still it appears worth a look.

“Original condition Willys Jeep that has been in storage since 1991. It will need a new battrey, the gas tank cleaned, a few new oil seals and maybe carb repair to get it running again.

I purchased this jeep back in 1972 from the original owner and did convert it to 12 volt. I have owners manual and sidesteps plus a 390 page service manual, army gas can, etc…The first owner installed a tow bar, a power takeoff winch and a airplane altimeter in the dash (see pictures). It has always been kept in a garage and has very little rust.
FYI, the first owner was Evil Kneivels’s father-in-law.”
