August 1961 Jeep Service And Parts News

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

This four-page August 1961 Jeep Service and Parts News issue begins, as usual, with discussions of $$$. Page two notes the important of the correct type and amounts of grease for the cam. Curiously, page two also requests dealer service departments review the 1000-mile inspection information for the FJ-3A Fleetvan, specifically Service Bulletin No. 539. I can’t remember another model mentioned so specifically; Unfortunately, I don’t have that bulletin.

Page four highlights some of the early products from Cutlas (Cutlas had just formed circa 1960, it’s president having previously left the same role at Free-Lock .. still don’t know the reasons for the change).

Never heard of this club. I was unable to locate any info about the club. My guess is that it intended to be mounted on a vehicle.

1956 DJ-3A Greenville, SC $7500

Here’s a pretty complete convertible, though no indication of a top and the top side bits are missing. Given the KS 0-8 speedo, I’d say this is a pretty early one. It’s missing the filler in the back; maybe it no longer has the rear tank?

I’m not sure if this is intended as a drag racer to just a fancy road rig.

This needs to be assembled, but may be in good shape. Looks like the body may be a replacement.

Looks solid. It appears to have some body liner texture on the pedals.

“This was my “Covid Lockdown” project. Purchased partially restored from an estate. It was built with parts from a ’46 and ’48 and is registered and licensed as a “48. The engine is the L-134 “Go Devil”, and the engine serial number indicates a manufacture date of 1944. The engine appears to be a recent rebuild that runs strong, with no leaks or smoke. I had the transmission and transfer case professionally rebuilt. I replaced the springs and shocks and went back to “military style” tires. Exhaust system, radiator, carburetor, fuel pump and fuel tank are all new. New paint inside and out. New weatherstrip around windshield and frame. Added electric wipers and seat belts. The top is in good condition, and comes with a brand new, still in the box replacement canvas. Brakes and clutch are in good condition. All receipts available for inspection. I took this up into the Colorado Rockies for a test run and it ran like a champ. Now that the project is done, I’m ready to let someone else enjoy this classic Jeep.”
