It reads more like a press release than an article. Given its timing in conjunction with the release of the CJ-2A, it most likely was.

1963 CJ-6 Longview, TX $8000

• CATEGORIES: CJ-6 This site contains affiliate links for which I may be compensated.

The last image contains some ‘facts’. To the best of my knowledge, there’s no data available regarding how many CJ-6s were exported vs. kept domestically. Then, there’s the Kaiser reference which isn’t quite correct either. 1963 was indeed a pivotal year,  marking the move away from Willys branded jeeps. But, by that time, Kaiser interests had owned Willys-Overland assets for almost a decade. Instead, this was a re-branding move, a time to ditch the Willys moniker (and its baggage/identity) in favor of the Jeep brand that saw the introduction of the Full-size Jeep line.

Kayline Soft Top and Cab Enclosure Hardtop Stayton, OR Make Offer

• CATEGORIES: Parts • TAGS: , This site contains affiliate links for which I may be compensated.

TJ shared Therese. The seller listed these at $100, but it sounds like that is just a place holder. Seller is really looking for offers.

https://www.facebook.com/marketplace/item/246167143348842

“I’ve got an arctic top off a 47 cj2a and a Kayline soft top. The Arctic top has been on the Jeep for many years just sitting in a barn. Pretty dirty and definitely needs paint, but structurally sound. The Kayline top I just got for the Jeep, as I am starting to fix it up, but it is not going to fit the full roll cage that I’m using. Seems to be in decent shape, just needs to be cleaned. Honestly, I’m not really sure what to ask for these tops, so if you’re interested, just make me an offer.”
