UPDATE III: This is a merge post, adding a nicer scan of the Commercial and Jeep Sales Bulletin, this one dated October 29, 1954, to the original Gran Hydraulic Lifter history post. This doc welcomes the Gran Hydraulic Lifter to the Willys Special Equipment list.
More on Military DJ-5s
Gayland shared these photos showing the military DJ-5s offered by AMC in the early 1970s. Time has tinted the images. The “brown” Army jeeps are actually OD green for the Army, while the Navy “white” jeeps may actually be haze gray.

I see a lot of junkie jeeps out there being sold for high prices right now. I constantly look all over the country at Jeeps and this is well worth what I’m asking for it.

“Selling my 1957 Willys “Jeep” FC-150 4×4 with a canvas top. It has been sitting on my grandfathers farm for the last 15 years. Now with my grandfathers farm getting sold, I figured I get this gem back home to find someone who can enjoy it and bring it back to its glory. It is a project truck, it does have the stock hurricane F-head (F-134) engine with a 3-speed manual transmission. With a new battery and gas I was able to get it running. The right rear wheel hub was seized due to the brakes being locked up, new hub has been installed. Does have a blowing heater/defroster. I do not have the seats, there is some rust but overall the body and bed is intact. The title has been lost but a quick trip to the DMV we can get the title transferred to you. Hate to get rid of the little truck but I just don’t have the time to start another project.”
CJ-2A and one other Ledyard, CT $999
