Saturday at the Bantam Festival

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

Mark, Bob, and Sebastian all reported that Saturday’s weather wasn’t the best, with either rain or threats of rain.  Still, there was plenty of to do and many jeeps to photograph.  The most photographed vehicle seems to be the Concept FC.  There are many fans of that rig.

Mark has posted some photos at JeepTruck’s Facebook Page:  http://www.facebook.com/pages/JeepTruckcom/108141260309

Parkway Conversion Brochure on eBay

• CATEGORIES: Advertising & Brochures, Features, Fire/Police/Industry Vehicles, Willys Wagons • TAGS: This site contains affiliate links for which I may be compensated.

One of the arguments for the Parkway conversion is that the delivery wagon “can now be registered as a suburban vehicle, which grants it access to boulevards and other zoned sections where commercial vehicles are not allowed.”

Anyone know how restrictive this zoning was?

1960 CJ-5 Minnetrista, MN eBay

• CATEGORIES: CJ5 • TAGS: , , This site contains affiliate links for which I may be compensated.

Buz spotted this one.  It is a no-reserve auction on a beautiful, stock CJ-5.  You’ll want to look at the pics of this one.  Compare the picture of it to the brochure below in the next post, too.

“Selling for my computer inept friend.  This 1960 Willys Jeep CJ5 is in Beautiful Original Condition, probably the nicest original CJ5 in existence.  Totally Original Paint, Upholstery, Engine, Miles, Everything is ORIGINAL. 21055 miles. Clear Title.  Original Spare Tire is not shown in the pictures but is included in the sale.  The tires are believed to be the originals and are in good shape with normal wear and no weather checking.  The Jeep has been stored in a carefully climate controlled building and has seen just enough use in the last many years to keep everything functional and working well.  The Jeep starts easily, runs perfectly, goes down the road as it should, and it needs nothing.  The Hardtop appears to have never been removed since new.  All fluids are fresh and the battery is new.  Look closely at the pictures, they tell the story about this vehicle better than words, more detailed pictures are available if you request them via email.  The Jeep shows very minimal use and wear with no damage or repairs.  All sheet metal is in oustanding condition and the only corrosion is very minimal, located near the tailights on both sides, the pictures show this clearly. Floor pans, fenders, quarter panels hood, undercarriage, were undercoated early in this CJ’s life and have been remarkably preserved.  There are no hidden problems, repairs, or any funny business … This jeep is the real thing, a near museum quality original, unmolested survivor.”

1958 FC-170 Helena, MT **SOLD**

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

UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $1800.

This appears worth a look.

“I have for sale a 1958 Willys Jeep FC 170 Forward Control 3/4 ton pickup with a 9 foot bed. Very cool old 4 x 4! This would be a one of a kind truck once you got her done! That’s the good news. The bad news is, it needs quite a bit of work. I was told by the previous owner that the engine had just been rebuilt and then reinstalled but that’s where the project was abandoned. I have not had the time to mess with it so it has not been running since I’ve had it. It appears to be all original and mostly complete as well but it will need a new back window and one of the sides which I was quoted about $150 for the pair. I do have one replacement door glass and several other small unique parts that will go with it. It does roll so no problem to load it. I do have a clear title on the way from the DMV so there won’t be any paperwork issues. Come check it out! I am also a gun dealer so I’ll accept fireams in trade as well as tools, old cars, parts, or other cool stuff. ”
