July 1959 Jeep News

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

I got this July 1959 issue of Jeep News for free, but it is an incomplete and damaged issue. On page one, the “Millions Will See ‘Jeep’ Vehicle Displays …” article continues on page four, but page four seems to be missing. So, this issue may be six or eight pages in length.

The last page of this edition might be the most interesting. On the lower left is an article showing an FC-170 modified to handle parking an maneuvering big trailers. One the lower right of the page is an article about Tootsie, a South Dakota coyote that became the official state animal, who got to ride in a jeep station wagon on some of her trips.

March 1960 Jeep Service and Parts News

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

The best part of this four-page March 1960 Jeep Service and Parts News is how to fix an annoying “rumble” in a CJ-5. According to page three, get yourself a pry bar and increase the clearance between the floor pan and the Flywheel housing bolts.

“I have a 1976 Mitsubishi J44 Jeep for sale. $12,500 This Jeep was manufactured by Mitsubishi in Japan in 1976. I imported this vehicle in 2009. Since then, it has lived inside my garage here in Ponte Vedra Beach Florida. I have a clear Florida title for the Jeep. This is the LWB soft top “Troopy” model Type J44 and it does have the right-hand drive (steering wheel is on the passenger side).

The engine is a great running 2659cc 4-cylinder Type 4DR5 diesel engine. The Jeep has a 4 Speed on the floor shifter transmission. I have all the necessary parts to convert it back to the original column shifter. These parts will be included with the sale of the Jeep. This Jeep has aftermarket power steering and A/C installed. The A/C will need some attention before it will work. The Jeep has 24volt electronics.

The Jeep has 31 x 10.5 x 15 Yokohama tires on non-OEM rims. No lift needed. I do have the original split rim wheels that will be included with the sale of the Jeep. Included in the price is: (1) 2x disc brake conversion for front wheel brakes, with knuckles and Aisin free wheeling hubs. Ready to be installed. (2) PTO winch. Koening type. Mounted on original mudguard. Wire cable on spool. All parts that are needed for the installation, drive shaft, to attach to transfer case are there. Check eBay to appreciate the value of this. I would prefer to sell these items with the Jeep but may consider selling them separately. This Jeep has been garage kept since 2009. This is a 47-year-old Jeep so do not expect a “new” Jeep. It still turns heads and is a great conversation starter.”

“All original runs drives and stops. Previous owner rebuilt the motor and put a reproduction body tub on it. The Jeep also has a brand new Besttop Top that goes with it. I currently have it off, but can put it back on in a few minutes . It comes with five original 15 inch wheels and a set of 32 x950 super swamper tires. The wheels in the pictures do not go with the Jeep they belong to another Jeep that I own. Carburetor could use a cleaning. It has tons of new parts including gas tank, fuel lines that I have not installed yet and new gauges..  no trades no lowball offers it’s not 50% off day or a fire sale. The body tub alone cost nearly $6000”

Has a large driver’s side patch. Runs and drives. It includes a “sports bar”?

“Great running and driving Jeep. Engine has been gone through and it starts, drives, stops, like new. F134 Hurricane with the 3 speed transmission, 2-speed transfer case with Warn locking hubs. The frame is in really great condition – straight and solid. Previous owner had put some undercoating on it too so it’s pretty well protected. The body is straight and fairly good for the age but it needs attention. Driver floorboard under the gas tank is the worst spot – it’s on my list to repair. The rest of the body is good other than a little rust hole here and there – all cosmetic. It comes with a sport bar, new bikini top, and a set of boat speakers that work with the little Bluetooth radio the previous owner installed. A solar trickle charger, 4 brand new tires and an older spare.”
