“I’m selling a cj2a from 1946 because I just don’t have time to finish it as I planned. I have done a lot of work to it such as: boxed in the frame, adapted Buick v6 motor mounts, adapted 1978 3” cj5 springs for a really nice ride along with a 4” lift, I put a amc 20 rear end in it along with a Dana 30 disc brake front end, it has a “shovel” cross member/skid plate(this makes the frame very strong and protects the tranny well). I have all the body parts but the hood. It has factory 1978 chrome cj5 wheels. All parts are in good shape, no rot. It has original vin tag.”

“Up for sale is my 1946 Willys driver, I bought it about 6 months ago as a fun toy and it was a blast to own. It was previously restored in 2006 to make this a bulletproof driver. It’s not perfect by any means, but the patina is PERFECT. It is very reliable, gets all the looks, compliments and conversations. Unfortunately the time has come to part ways with her. I just don’t get to drive it as often as I thought I would.

With the chevy 4.3l it starts right up, every time, and has plenty modern day power and torque to enjoy the driving experience. Message me for running driving videos of the truck I can send you. Truck is mechanically sound and doesn’t need anything. I have the rear seats as well if anyone is interested in adding that into the truck. Has a 3in body lift and oversize tires. Please let me know if you have any questions. Can try to answer to the best of my knowledge and supply any additional photos you might need.

Title is in hand, and registration is non-op. Just need to transfer and pay registration.”

Cookie Monster’s FJ-3 Foodie Truck

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

UPDATE: There’s an update here on Cookie Monster’s Foodie Truck (and associated items for sale).

Thanks to Gayland for spotting this Sesame Street FJ-3 fleet van that was made into Cookie Monster’s Foodie Truck. You can learn more about the show and the truck on the Muppet Fandom Page: https://muppet.fandom.com/wiki/Cookie_Monster%27s_Foodie_Truck

cookie-monster-FoodieTruck-Logo

There is both a two dimensional fake FJ-3 and a three dimensional real FJ-3. This is obviously the fake one:

And here are two photos of the real one:

This photo is from the Muppet Fandom page: https://muppet.fandom.com/wiki/Cookie_Monster%27s_Foodie_Truck

 

In an episode of Buttermilk Biscuits and Honey, the FJ-3 makes a brief appearance at the start of the show (it likely appears in others, but I don’t have the time to watch them all):

5 Folded Brochures of Different Models on eBay

• CATEGORIES: Advertising & Brochures, Features This site contains affiliate links for which I may be compensated.

UPDATE: There are more of these five-brochure sets on eBay. View all the info on eBay. These are five out of the 20 issued (Form 600-01 through 600-20) during 1960. Slightly different, but similar brochures were published in 1959 (Form 59-01 through 59-20). The form number can be found at the bottom of the brochures. I’m working on assembling an entire list for each year. 

(02/09/2017) I bought and received a set of these. By the time you factor in the exchange rate, this is a good price.

“These are five small format (22 x 9 cms) six page two colour sales brochure folders for the 1960 Jeep range for the US market.
Produced by Willys Motors Inc in Toledo Ohio, in English and undated, but they are around 1960
All open out to about A4 size with good pics and specifications.
Covers the following models:
1960 Jeep Universal CJ-6
1960 Jeep Utility Wagon
1960 Jeep Pick-up Truck
1960 Jeep FC-150 Forward Control Truck
1960 Jeep FC-170 Forward Control Truck”

1959 or 1960 Mailer Brochure?

• CATEGORIES: Advertising & Brochures, Features This site contains affiliate links for which I may be compensated.

Anyone have this brochure?

I don’t have it; but do have these old pics from a 2013 post. The problem is I can’t quite tell what the date (aka form number) is from 1959 or 1960. If you have this brochure, the date would be great. Scans would even be better, but I know that’s not simple for everyone.

I’m also interested in other 1958-1962 brochures. These all have date related-form numbers. I have a bunch, but not all of them. At some point this month I will create a list of what I have and what I need to more fully document the brochures from this era.
