1958 Kayline Soft Top Brochures

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

This set of Kayline Soft Top brochures cover Kayline’s Delux Quality, Kaylux Quality, and Convertible soft tops. These brochures also suggest that, as of 1958, Kayline was not working with Kelly Manufacturing yet.

Kayline Ski Rack and Sunliner Top Brochures

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

These brochures from the mid-1970s highlight the Ski/Luggage racks offered by Kayline. The top brochure also shows Kayline’s ‘Sunliner’ soft top, which features windows on the top’s roof to let in light and improve visibility.

This brochure page included actually swatches of the denim used in making Tan and Blue tops. I have a tan Kayline Denim convertible top, but have not compared the swatch to the top yet.

Sta-Bar Kit Brochures

UPDATE:  This 2012 post has been updated to reflect the existence of two different Sta-Bar Kits.

Two different manufactures (were there any others?) offered stabilizing kits that were meant to reduce some of the horizontal shifting that can occur when using a rear lift.

Here’s a detail look at a Monroe 3pt Hitch without a stabilizer hit.

The Roper Manufacturing Company out of Zanesville, Ohio, manufactured a set of bars that pivoted on special vertical plates attached to the ends of the PTO bar and attached to the lower links as highlighted below:

Here’s the Roper Sta-Bar Kit brochure:

The Green Manufacturing Company’s Green Star-Bar Kit has bars that appear to attach to the outside of the lower links in a similar manner to the Roper kit. I can’t tell how the kit attaches to the PTO bar or how that might differ from the Roper setup. The pricing shows it was slightly less expensive than the Roper Sta-Bar Kit.

WWII Photo with Woman, Soldiers, Jeep and Camera

Givnethe camera, his *might* be a press photo crew of some sort? The square appearing gas tank suggests this might be an early MB. For some reason, the seller thinks this photo is a “Original 1910’s WWI Photo”, which  would indeed be a rare photo, lol.

It’s come time for me to part with my 1962 FC-150 WideTrack. No specific reason, it’s just where I am right now. I’ve driven it ~18 miles in the last 3 years. Runs great and the electric fuel pump is a plus. It’s located in NE Pennsylvania. I can confidently say, you won’t be disappointed. Just to be up front, I don’t have to sell it, I just don’t have the passion anymore and I have no doubt there are others on here that do. Here’s the breakdown if you are interested. I also have pictures during the build if you are seriously interested. I figured I’d post it here first. Thanks in advance for your consideration.

I think this is a cab enclosure hardtop, but can’t tell for sure.

“Very well used hardtop with doors which came on an M38 project I bought. No rear hatch door.”

1964? CJ-3B Coatesville, PA $7000

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

UPDATE: Price dropped to $7000.

Ranger Bob suggests this could have been a 1963 that could have been on the production line when things switched the 1964 model (see comments).

Though listed as a 1964, I imagine it is earlier (maybe 1963) given the Willys stampings. It could use some body work and paint. Still, it’s hard to find a 1960’s 3B for sale.

https://www.facebook.com/marketplace/item/1417200568485274/

“Putting my 1964 Willys CJ3B up for sale. I’ve had a lot of work done to it in the last few weeks as you can see from the photos. These are not getting easier to find and to have one that has a hardtop and is in good condition with all original drivetrain and low miles is nearly impossible, especially on the east coast. I will NOT respond to any pre-made Facebook messenger messages. May be interested in trades depending on what you have. Please don’t waste my time. Price is $7,500 obo”
