1963 Studebaker Zip Van **SOLD**

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

UPDATE: **SOLD** Was on eBay.

Mike spotted this FJ look-alike. Is there some type of connected history between these ‘Zips’ and the FJ-3 & FJ-3As? Or was USPS dictating the design?

“BUY IT NOW OR MAKE OFFER on this very rare US MAIL 1963 Studebaker Zip Van that has spent it’s life in southern New Mexico and is sun baked with the cool ratrod patina everyone is looking for. It has been sitting for years and does have a lot of surface rust and little rust through on the body(look at closeup pictures of the rust area’s).

1963 FJ-3 Fleet Van Niles, MI **SOLD**

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

UPDATE: WAS $500.

This is a 1963 Willys Mail Truck that was turned into an ice cream truck at some point. The truck needs full restoration, it has been sitting outside for a long time. Both rear leaf springs broke with the shackles holding the axle tube on the drivers side. This could be a very cool project for someone. “

1960 FJ-3A Northampton, PA **SOLD**

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

UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $13,750.

“1960 Willys FJ-3 4 cylinder 138 cubic inch “Hurricane,” partnered with a Borg Warner T90 automatic transmission. This Willys Jeep FJ-3 Fleetvan had a full rebuild 5 years ago. All exterior panels that rusted thru were removed and replaced with stainless steel, prior to a full paint job. All the interior panels were removed, sand blasted, sealed, painted, and reassembled. After the body was finished, work started on the machine itself. It has rebuilt brake and master cylinders. The brake shoes and emergency brake cable were replaced. It also had new tail lights, signals, signal lever, and new wiring to them. Since I have owned it there are new plugs, wires, points, condenser, Optima RedTop battery etc… new OEM carb and valves have been adjusted. All fluids have been flushed and refilled. This Willys Jeep fleetvan is ready to go.

All Original manuals come with it.
As you can see from the pictures our goal was to use the FJ-3 as a moving billboard for our business.

We made modifications to the interior and back door opening. These modifications were made to allow our Italian Ice cart to fit into the jeep. We have installed a false floor in the FJ-3 with an electric winch and wireless remote. We still have the mesh cage that goes behind the driver and all the parts for the back door. The paint colors, which we think were rolled on, are Flat Green and Flat White. The logos are all wrapped, which means they are not painted on, and can easily be removed.

We are selling the FJ-3 because after loading 1,000 pounds of Italian Ice and our Italian Ice cart onto the jeep it becomes very top heavy.

This Fleetvan was used for 2 Seasons on CBS Show “Vegas”.

There are only a number of FJ-3 Fleetvan’s left, and there are even fewer out there in this good of a condition.

So, we have put it up for sale and the asking price is $13,750. We are located in the Northampton, Pa. 18067
Original mileage is 46,988, speedometer……….”
