UPDATE: **SOLD** Was on eBay.

Maury shared this Kelly hardtop for sale. It looks like it will need some metal work.

“Kelly All-Metal Cab For 1955 – 1975 Willys Jeep CJ-5. Condition is Used. All glass is good with no cracks. The top has surface rust. The doors have rusted through in places on the exterior panels. The door glass is not broken. I am not sure but I think this is a 200 series cab. It was made by Kelly Manufacturing Co. of Charleston, WV. This cab was on a 1959 CJ5. Local pickup only.”

Evans Clearfloat Lighter w/ CJ-5 **SOLD**

UPDATE: This sold for $66 plus shipping of $15.

This unique lighter with an entombed jeep model has already reached $26 (+$15 shipping) with four days to go.

dudley-cj5-lighter

“What a great piece. During the 1950s and 1960s Evans teamed up with the Clearfloat Company to create various see through lighters with miniaturized items “floating” inside. This one has a miniaturized figural Willys Jeep.

The lighter is also marked “Dudley”. Likely, this piece was a gift from the Jeep Dealer of Dudley, Massachusetts to their Jeep Customers. If anyone knows more about them, please drop me a line and I will add it to the info.

The Jeep inside this great decor piece is superbly detailed. I have pictured it from all angles for your inspection. Since the craftsmen at Clearfloat made these lighters by hand, there are no two of them alike. This special piece is in excellent condition with a snappy action. The flint tube is clear and a it has a great spark from the new flint that was installed for your convenience.

Here is your chance to add this Good-Looking Evans Clearfloat Décor Table Lighter to your collection – Thanks for looking.”

Maury shared this nice looking CJ-6.

http://www.earlycj5.com/xf_cj5/index.php?threads/1959-cj-6.143054/

1959-cj6-westmonroe-ny

“I am not here to troll or post and run, but I do have a very nice, clean, running, operational 1959 CJ-6 that I am looking to sell. THE ONLY reason I am selling is because I have expanded my business … It is all there, the metal is good, no real “rot” and has had some previous body work done. My goal was to give her a proper restoration and show it as well as drive it during the fair weather months. That said, she starts, runs, drives, turns, stops and shuts off properly. There may be a light bulb out, there may be a little oil leak here or there, there may be a squeak or rattle, the gages may not all operate every day of the week, but it is a very solid 6. It is currently NY registered, insured and inspected. I drive it at least weekly around town to keep her from getting ornery. The previous owner built the rear bumper, which is also an air tank. The front bumper is aluminum and also obviously not original. The seat brackets are fabricated to flip forward to access a compartment built into the floor. The rear seat bracket is also made to flip back for “tailgating” as he (previous owner) put it. He also installed some aftermarket gages. Aside from those items, everything else is original, or appears to be.

UPDATE: This post has been merged and reworked after I figured out that the two tops were actually related. 

In July of 1963, Fresno-based Automotive Fiberglass Company placed an advertisement in Four Wheeler magazine for its new fiberglass hardtop. I wonder if the builder of this top was also a member of the Fresno Jeep Club?

This is the 1963 ad:

1963-07-fourwheeler-fiberglass-top-ad

July 1963 Ad from Automotive Fiberglass

This Automotive Fiberglass top appeared on a CJ-5 for sale in Fresno in 2010. It is the only jeep I’ve seen with an Automotive Fiberglass Top:

CJ-5 with 1963 fiberglass hardtop from Automotive Fiberglass. 

TIMELINE —
July 1963: Automotive Fiberglass places ad in Four Wheeler Magazine;
November 1963: Top King Manufacturing files design patent for an altered version of the Automotive Fiberglass top;
February 1964: Top King top is advertised in the Four Wheeler Magazine;
September 1964: A more detailed ad is placed in Four Wheeler Magazine.

A few months after the Automotive Fiberglass advertisement, two design patents were filed and assigned to Top King Manufacturing. You’ll note that the rear side-angle has been reversed. The mid-section insert piece for the side was also changed, altered from a triangle shape to a rhombus shape.  Here’s the design patent information from the Official Gazette of the United States Patent Office:

 

1963-design-patents-jeep-top-king

November 1963 Design Patent filing for Top King. Note that I haven’t had the time to investigate the designers mentioned in the patent. 

By February 1964, King Top was advertising the newly redesigned top in Four Wheeler Magazine. Curiously, the company listed its name as the Top King Fiberglass Company rather than Top King Manufacturing (could be a relic from the Automotive Fiberglass company days):

1964-02-fourwheeler-pg42-king-top-fiberglass-ad-lores

February 1964 Ad from Top King.

Seven months later, this second ad was placed in the September 1964 issue of Four Wheeler Magazine. The company had corrected its name for the ad back to Top King Manufacturing. Additionally, Top King announced it would soon have flatfender versions of the top available, along with a half cab version. Have any of these survived?

1956 Forms W-25X-XX Brochures

UPDATE II: This poster was based on the 1956 W-25X-6 brochures. This also seems to confirm that there was never any Form W-251-6 brochure (which had been a lingering question of mine).

1956-form-w-250-6-brochure-jeep-poster

Original Post From Feb 17, 2020 (but with all new text): Below are the front pages from a series of 1956 brochures. I think I’ve got everything sorted out … 

  1. Form W-250-6 V1 (CJ-5/CJ-6/CJ-3B):
    1956-form-w-250-6-v1-brochure-2nd-3-lores
  2. Form W-250-6 V2 (CJ-5/CJ-6/CJ-3B) … this form replaced the one above:

  3. Form W-250-6X (CJ-5/CJ-6/CJ-3B) Export:

  4. Form W-252-6 V1 (Trucks):

1956 CJ-5/CJ-6/CJ-3B Domestic Brochure Forms W-250-6

July 3, 2020 • CATEGORIES: Advertising & Brochures, Features This site contains affiliate links for which I may be compensated.
1

UPDATE: There were two different Form W-250-6’s produced during 1956. The first one shown below is version one I believe. Making the one at the bottom version two. Both differ significantly from the export version of the form, which is Form W-250-6X. 

What’s the difference between them? Both forms open up to 11″x17″, so the sizes are the same. However, the front page is completely different. In version #2 of the brochure (at the bottom) you can see that the front page is more harmonious with the Wagon (Form W-253-6) and the Truck (Form W-252-6) brochures. The second page, reached by opening the brochure horizontally, shows part of the vehicle line in version #1, while the vehicle line is absent from version #2 at bottom. Maybe version #1 of this brochure was pulled because Willys Motors’ management wasn’t ready to introduce the FC-170? I can’t say for sure.  Finally, you’ll also notice that “WILLYS” is absent from the front of version #1, while “BY WILLYS” is prominent on the front of the bottom brochure.

Because that reasoning, I believe this is Version #1 of Form W-250-6 …
