1953 Truck Northridge, Ca $4000

Mark has this listed over at Jeeptruck.com.

“I was recently willed my brother’s 1953 Willys pick up. I restored it for him about 15 years ago and he drove it occasionally around town in June Lake, CA. It is pretty much stock, except that I converted the electrical to 12 volts and installed a stereo and CB radio. It runs fine and I just drove it in a 4Th of July parade. I did discover that it now leaks oil from the front transfer case seal. The paint job is showing signs of neglect and is peeling on some of the edges.

It has a 4 cyl F4-134 engine and a 3 speed manual transmission w/ 2 speed transfer case. I replaced the 6 volt generator with a 12 volt alternator. All new wiring was installed along with 12 volt lights. I added turn signals w/emergency flasher. The radio is a 50 watt Pioneer AM/FM stereo with cassette player. The CB is a Uniden that has been “tweeked & peaked” to 7 watts. As far as I know, the speedometer has always worked in the 30+ years that he owned it, but it only shows 07161 miles. That could be accurate, as it was parked outside at his vacation cabin and infrequently used. If anyone is interested, I also have a 6 cyl Willys engine, transmission, front & rear ends that could be included for a few extra bucks. I would have to try to identify the engine & year of it and the rest.    $4000   Currently it is Northridge, CA (Los Angeles)    Richard   phone 818-886-5730.”

1961 Truck Rocky Ford, CO **SOLD**

UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $13,500.

“1961 Jeep Willys Pickup, serial number 55268-64738. The title is clean and in my possession.

It is powered by a Ford 302 small block V8. The engine is used but starts and runs nicely. The three speed transmission and transfer case are original. The four wheel drive works great. There is an aftermarket overdrive installed and it will cruise at highway speeds. The rims are aftermarket chrome-alloy and the tires are barely used.

Mechanical updates include: power brakes, electrical engine fan, new fuel tank, and dual exhaust with cherry bombs. The steering is still original but has been overhauled including a new steering wheel. The bed is lined with Herculiner roll on bed liner. The interior is restored with new upholstery, rubber flooring, and door panels. The door and floor panels are new and made out of an oak veneer.

The carburetor needs a tune up and the suspension is sagging and needs updated. There is a crack in the top corner of the driver’s side window. If the battery is not unplugged after driving it will drain over long periods of time. The paint is in decent condition with only minor scratches and chips. Rust is minimal. ”

Gerald is all ready for the Bantam Festival.  Note that I will be riding with him in spirit, as he will have a picture of me and Biscuit on or near his jeep.  So, stop on by, say hello, and get your picture taken with my picture. 🙂

Gerald writes, “We had my Dad’s 46 (red), Brother’s 48 (blue) and my 63 (cj3b) all in the same place for the first time.  My brother also has a 50 M-38 to add but here’s the 3 at the Butler Farm show with a couple other flat fenders from our club.”

UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $3000.

Norm spotted this ad.  The jeep has an interesting hardtop and unusual back.  It appears well done.  Does anyone know if the airforce owned or had other CJ-3As like this?

1960 FC-170 Pueblo, Co **SOLD**

August 9, 2011 • CATEGORIES: Camping, FC150-FC170-M677, Unusual This site contains affiliate links for which I may be compensated.
4

UPDATE: **SOLD** Was on eBay.

The camper isn’t original to the FC, but fits pretty well I think.

“This is a forward control FC-170 (1-ton) that has a camper built on the back.  It was converted to a camper sometime in the early seventies.  The interior of the camper has new paint, counters and cushions. It makes into two double beds and two single so it sleeps a total of six. Has original 1950s propane stove with an oven (there is a normal removable propane tank in an exterior compartment).  Gas and DC lights, ice box and sink.  The water tank has been removed but there is a place underneath to mount a tank.  The engine was changed at some point and replaced with a 302 Ford V-8.  The engine fires up and sounds good.  The truck drives fine but has been parked for quite some time.  I purchased from the person who had built the camper and had owned it for many years.  He had used it for camping with the family and hunting but not in recent years due to his age.  There is an overdrive unit that goes with the vehicle but needs to be repaired and was removed.  I was told by the previous owner that the windshield was recently replaced and it does appear to have been.  The tires are pretty old and hard.  There is also a set of black spoked 15″ rims are included. There is also a box of misc. gaskets and parts included.  The truck has quite a bit of power with the V-8 and would probably get up just about anywhere and has plenty of clearance.  There were not many of these trucks made and they have become very collectible.  As you can see from the photos the paint is faded but there does not appear to be any serious corrosion anywhere.”

Stuart seeks some original GPW seats in North Carolina

Stuart writes, “I am in need of proper, adequate, if not original seating situation for the “front” of my 43 gpw. As you may be able to see from the pics below, someone has “bubba’d” the driver’s seat and stretched it about 10 inches. I understand the passenger seat isn’t correct either. What i do have to trade or sell to someone is a purpose fabricated roll cage w/ bucket seats, a full width rearview mirror and a console/armrest/cooler/cup holders (not shown) that fits between the center rails.”
