Light Duty Rescue Truck Brochure Form W-F56-1

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

UPDATE: Dan’s got a good thread related these trucks at the Old Willys Forum. The 1956 June-July issue of Willys News included a reference to this vehicle.

I suspect this brochure, Form W-F56-1, was published in 1956, so I’ll republish it here as we are attempting to move through the 1956 brochure year. My guess is that this eight page brochure was a lunch brochure for the light duty rescue truck.

One great thing is that it has a list of all the equipment that is supposed to come with truck, plus a picture showing how it was organized in the back.

The seller was unsure what model this was, but I’d guess based on the body and grille that this is a late 1946-early 47 CJ-2A.

4 Renegade? Rims Danbury, CT $400

These might be a set of Renegade rims.

renegade-rims

“I have a set of 4 Renegade rims. 5×5.5” bolt pattern. I’m not sure, but I believe these are original to the 72-75 renegades, but will fit any CJ.

They are all stamped “FORGED” on the back side. Also a number is found stamped on each rim. 3 have the number 3153655, and 1 has the number 3153542. These numbers don’t mean much to me, but they may to someone.

These are in really nice shape with no damage and should look like new with a good polishing. $400 for the set. Would consider shipping at your expense, but pickup in Newtown CT preferred.”

“I am posting my 45 MB for sale. Basically I am looking for a house and need to free up some money for a downpayment! My loss is your gain. Open to offers!

Here is a 1945 Willy’s MB. All body sheet metal is original. New safety glass windshield. The motor is I believe an early CJ2A. It’s a strong runner (can do over 60 easily), but I believe is developing a leaky rear main seal. T-84 trans; and proper WWII style transfer case. Earlier transfer case as it has the external parking brake. 4 original combat wheels with newer firestone NDTs. New rear springs as of 2 years ago.

Older canvas and foam seats but a like new top made by Farrel Fox 3 years ago. Does NOT come with the dummy machine gun but does come with the dash mount installed. Data plates are reproduction. All original rebuilt differentials. Radiator is original war time. If you’re from the Albany NY area you may recognize her; she’s done a lot of events up here since 2010! Just want to see it go to a good home”
