February 1956 Willys Service and Parts News

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

This February 1956 issue shows repair part kits for wheel cylinders. Unless I am confused, certainly nothing extraordinary, it seems the newsletter is suggesting that CJ-2A, CJ-3A, CJ-3B, CJ-5, CJ-6 and DJ-3A all used the same Wheel Cylinder kits, but actually the DJ-3A, unfortunately, is different from all those.

Andy shared this Louis Marx “Build-Up” plastic jeep kit, which looks a lot like the domestically produced Fix-All jeep. Note that the windshield on this jeep is broken (passenger arm).

“Rear wheel axle plastic support broken missing as picks show plus front windshield one end broken missing.trolley jack missing.there are 5 wheels only 4 tyres. unsure if large red disc is for this?.the bonnet is very tight only opened as far as pics show didn’t want to force as might snap one or both lugs so beware on this.the grey tin lid with number eight will not come with this as I’m pretty certain it’s not for this”

1953 CJ-3B Vancouver, WA $5800

• CATEGORIES: CJ-3B This site contains affiliate links for which I may be compensated.

This may be a good price. Paint has been brushed onto it.

“1953 willys high hood cj3b in good condition. My grandpa wanted to get rid of it and told me if I sell it I could use the money towards college. It looks amazing in the photos but it does have flaws. My grandpa painted it with a brush in his garage this bright red and then painted the bumpers and such black. Has some runs in it and isn’t the best but looks better than it did. Has some rust but isn’t the worst. Besides that it runs great, runs smooth. Has decent 33s and a spare also. Comes with winch and a flat tow. I’m no jeep guy so if your really interested you can come take a look”

Barney shared this lefty. Note the plaid half-seat. I believe this is home made; at least, I’ve not seen one quite like this (one of the black and white pics in the ad partly shows it installed).

This is a couple hours away from me. It looks promising. This has a V-6 badge, but unclear what engine is actually there.

CJ-2A Sears-Style Half Cab St. Helens, OR $350

Includes a set of homemade doors.

“From what I can tell this is a Sears top. It fits my Cj2A but I’m not sure if it fits the 3A. I went with a full top so I don’t need it. It has one original door and both hinge pieces . I also have included two home made doors( they will need new glass). The home made doors are very stout.”
