A Couple Unusual Alaska Hardtops

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

Paul forwarded these two photos of hardtops. Anyone know who manufactured these tops?

The first one is the same model of hardtop Paul’s dad had on his jeep. Paul notes, “This is an old metal hardtop which was used on the WW2 Jeeps. The windows in the doors are moved up and down by straps on the inside of the doors.”

This is another version of the same top. However, the doors on this top have been modified so the vertically sliding windows were replaced by fixed pieces of clear plexiglass. Rather a boxy design even compared to a Jeep.

The trunk is an interesting feature.

There is nothing more rugged and endearing than a Willys Jeep. . .especially one from the early 1950s with some patina. This 1953 Willys CJ3B is almost completely original and has acquired some battle scars over the years. Nothing serious. . .just enough to add some character. If you’re into off-roading or just want a beast to drive around, this Willys with a factory Hardtop, just may be the ticket for you. I know I have had a blast with it over the past 18 years cruising around my property high in the Colorado Rockies. This CJ3B is listed with a starting bid of $1,000 and a reserve well below what it is worth.

This has some old lettering. Unclear how much is left on the rest of the top. “Hi I’m selling my aluminum top it came on my jeep willys cj2a I’m not planning on plowing with it so I would like to either sell it or possible trade for a running drivetrain for a cj2a. The top is made by Sears and Roebuck it has a lift gate in the back needs windows for the doors or make some out of plexiglass. It has a very nice patina and a decal for old business in worchester mass this is a very cool unique piece. Won’t find to many like it. Even has the old style phone number on the door. I hate to get rid of it but could use the money or drivetrain to get my cj2a going”cj2a-sears-roebuck-top1 cj2a-sears-roebuck-top2

It’s got a dent, but the “Civil Defense’ on the back is kind of cool. Looks like a Koenig hardtop. The Pueblo Civil Defense Agency was eliminated in the early 1990s.
