“Selling my 1957 Willys “Jeep” FC-150 4×4 with a canvas top. It has been sitting on my grandfathers farm for the last 15 years. Now with my grandfathers farm getting sold, I figured I get this gem back home to find someone who can enjoy it and bring it back to its glory. It is a project truck, it does have the stock hurricane F-head (F-134) engine with a 3-speed manual transmission. With a new battery and gas I was able to get it running. The right rear wheel hub was seized due to the brakes being locked up, new hub has been installed. Does have a blowing heater/defroster. I do not have the seats, there is some rust but overall the body and bed is intact. The title has been lost but a quick trip to the DMV we can get the title transferred to you. Hate to get rid of the little truck but I just don’t have the time to start another project.”

May 1951 Wagon Comparison Brochure

This 34-page May 1951 Form No. SWC1-10M-551 wagon comparison brochure is one I’d never seen before it hit eBay. The size is about 5.5″ by 11″.  It’s not in the best of shape, but it’s there and readable. The front page has a rectangle cut out so that the table of contents on page three shows through cover.

I wonder if an equivalent brochure was made for the truck? I doubt anything was made for the universal jeep, as there wasn’t much to compare to it by 1951.

October 1954 Willys Welcomes Warn Hubs

I wasn’t aware that Kaiser Willys put out a series of Commercial and Jeep Sales Bulletins, but I now have examples of at least four of these that I will publish over the next week or so. It’s unclear how many were published or how long this lasted.

This particular example, dated October 08, 1954, welcomed Warn Locking and Automatic hubs to the Willys Special Equipment Line. To the best of my knowledge, it was the first time Willys included hubs in its Special Equipment line. As of 1954, Warn was likely the largest producers of hubs. Free-Lock quickly became the second largest producer of hubs, but that wouldn’t be until 1956 (See Free-Lock Hubs history for more info). To the best of my knowledge, Free-Lock was never added to the Willys Special Equipment Line.
