This photo from the October 1954 issue of Kaiser Willys News got me thinking. Anyone know when the first jeep trenchers were manufactured?

Needs work, but looks pretty stock. Given those steps have survived it might not have been beat up too much.

1964 CJ-5 Wheat Ridge, CO $2500
Seller believes the Koenig hardtop top came off of a DJ, but that top wouldn’t have fit the wider windshield of the CJ-5.
“Been slowly fixing this cj5 up over the last year or so.
Recently replaced-
All fluids
Axle seals
Greased wheel bearings
Brake master cylinder
All brake slave cylinders
All brake shoes
Brake flex lines
Ignition switch
Tail lights
Distributor cap, rotor, points and leads
Spark plugs
Coolant hoses
Fan belt
Installed delco 145amp alternator.
And more I have forgotten about!
The original f134 motor runs well and I have driven the jeep around the block a few times. Still needs some work to be roadworthy but not much. Body is in good shape with very little rust.
Has a interesting Hardtop and doors that I suspect came off a dj5
Vehicle is fitted with a Ramsey pto winch and PTO.
Vehicle needs new rear leaf springs and the parking brake fixed before it will be roadworthy. Also the fuel tank really needs to be flushed and sealed.”
