Item History Please note: Items in the 'Item History' section are meant for informational purposes only. To see the exact condtion and contents of this listing, see ' Contents/Condition ' information in section above #7000 Army Official Jeep Combat Set - Steering Wheel In 1964, the original GI Joe marketing plan was simple. Sell them the doll...err...action figure :-) and then sell them plenty of outfit/accessories to go with it. Seems simple today but it was unique in the toys for boys market (but successfully implemented with Mattel's Barbie 5 years earlier) of the early 1960s. Each item is displayed w it could easily be seen on a store shelf - each one sewn on a card and visible through cello window or seal. In addition to outfits, Hasbro introduced a few vehicles for Joe to travel in . The 5 Star jeep was the first vehicle introduced. In 1965, Sears did an in-store exclusive of the 5-Star Jeep - this version of the Jeep differs from the non-Sears version in the following ways - 1) T is no Moto-Rev motor (even though the cylinder area in the mold for the motor is present). The cylinder area was removed from the mold in 5-Star Jeeps after Hasbro dropped the Moto-Rev sound in 1966. 2) The Jeep does not have hub caps, however it does retain the same first issue tires with the 4-visible holes, as the 5-Star Jeep. 3) No spare tire or spare tire mount. Regular 5-Star Jeeps have a hole drilled through the passenger side of the jeep to fit a tire mount - the Sears version not only doesn't have the mount, but the wall of the Jeep is smooth with no hole drilled. 4) T is no painted 'HQ-26' on the front bumper. 5) T's no hose from the Jeep to the trailer. 6) The connection from the Jeep to trailer is just the 1-pin and chain. The two 'L' chains seen in non-Sears Jeeps were not included. 7) The box & instructions were altered to account for the aforementioned changes. Since the Moto-Rev option was deleted in 1966, t was no reason for the Sears exclusive, and it was sold in 1965 only. Each Jeep included the following: - Five Star Jeep w Gear Shift Lever - Moto-rev sound (on certain models) - See above - Steering Wheel w/Mount - Windshield w/Plastic Glass - Searchlight - Recoilless Rifle - Rifle Rockets x4 - Tripods x2 - Equipment Trailer w/Chain & Pin - Connection Hoses (on certain models - see above) - American Flag w Pole - Spare Tire - Instructions This listing is for a 100% original, 100% Hasbro Jeep Trailor Hitch pinl - bet yours is missing or you wouldn't be ! :-) Go ahead...you know you need it.ALL ORIGINAL!! 100% VINTAGE * 100% AUTHENTIC * 100% ALL ORIGINAL * NO REPRODUCTIONS * NO KNOCK OFFS!
