April 1954 Kaiser Willys News

A big thanks to Barney Goodwin (of Barneys Jeep Parts) for sending me this early edition of the Kaiser Willys News. This is issue #3. A couple interesting things about this issue. Perhaps the biggest curiosity is that there isn’t much related to jeeps in this issue, confirming that even by early 1954 there was still a lot of integration still going on. Issue #2, seen in the post below, also didn’t have much information related to jeeps. Volume 4 of the newspaper, which appeared in May (and can be seen below the #2 issue), had a few more jeep specific references.

This May 1954 issue of Kaiser Willys News is one I only have available in these smaller pics snagged off eBay back in 2013. There is a story about the Yakima ridge runners and the Jeep Rodeo, but it’s too small to read.

UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $2500.

The engine is from Kaiser-Frazer, so isn’t original to the jeep. I believe the disassembled photos are the latest ones.

“”46″ Jeep CJ2A , 1st year available to for civilian purchase. All original parts to re- assemble. Was going to do a frame off restoration but am going a different way. Comes with a top, doors, and plow. Has the original supersonic 4 cylinder motor. Currently sitting in my garage out of the weather. Would be a good restoration or an opportunity to add an SMC motor to make an off road vehicle. Do not have a title so I would supply a bill of sale to acquire one.”

UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $525.

Seller believes this was a CJ-5 hardtop at one point, but I don’t see any mods that would indicate that.

“I have a Willy’s jeep hardtop for sale. The top bolts to any flat fender jeep with a MB/GPW windshield frame. (Excluding CJ 3B) The top started off as a early aluminum CJ5 top. it has been highly modified to fit the early Jeeps.”

“I have a mid 1950’s jeep fc150 4×4 for sale. I have had this thing listed a few times now but did alittle bit more work too it.. the engine turns over great, it’s a 3speed. It does not run right now. It needs a new ignition wire & few other things. I’m not sure on mileage either ! The jeep has rust in the floors, & the common places. I bought this with the intention on restoring it for my business but I do not have the time at all & would love too see it go to a better home. No trades, cash only, no title”

This creative trailer looks to be the rears of two early CJ-5 tubs welder together, both with tailgates at both the front and back, capped with a Koenig hardtop, plus some additional customization. Looks like it does the job.
