“I take cash or PayPal. Firm on price. First with payment takes it. Located in Shipshewana, IN. 1959 Willys Jeep CJ5 with Auburn Jeep-A-Trench. AgriJeeps were a standard CJ with aftermarket farm equipment, making a dual-purpose vehicle.

This is one of very few operational trencher Jeeps left. I can send you a video of it trenching my backyard. This particular trencher is the latest, greatest version available for the Jeep. It sits inside the bed, rather than hanging off the back. It removes quite a bit of stress from the chassis and body. Hydraulic boom raise/lower and gear-driven chain. Has a new heavy duty clutch kit, fuel tank, fuel pump, lines. Tires all hold air. Runs and drives nice.

A trencher was on my bucket list. I found it in Illinois as a basket case. Engine had no compression, all the shifters were seized, ripped tires etc. I installed an engine I had, installed a rebuilt PTO unit, decent tires/wheels, and general fixes. I’m including the engine I removed as well as the original 4 wheels.

No title (not that you’d want to drive it on the road anyways). Engines smokes, and no brakes. Needs general TLC, although it is turn-key trenchable. Yes, it’s as fun as you think it is.”
