UPDATE:  **SOLD** Was on eBay.

What is that on the passenger side, an emergency brake?  For $3400 this looks like a good price.

” Military flat fender style jeep.  4X4 with a solid, good condition drivetrain.  134 c.i.d. L-Head 4 cyl. engine that runs strong.  The speedo reads 01851, but I don’t have any idea if it is original miles and turned over once or not.  Powerful PTO winch that works great.  Tow bar attached to the front bumper.  New floor panels.  Soft top and soft doors included, but it is not a full enclosure.  Body is in great shape-no rust.  Spare tire carrier has been moved to tailgate and the tailgate is tack welded closed.  Everything is original except the front bumper (has a grader blade welded to the original bumper) and the tail lights are replacements.  Tires are sun rotted and not highway safe.  Clear title.  I can deliver the jeep within 100 miles, but no further.  Cash or cashier’s check for full amount at the time of pick-up and title transfer.”

UPDATE: Was $9000.  **Status Unknown**

(08/19/2009) This looks very stock and in good shape.

“Up for sale is a 1950 Willys jeep that is stock and in good condition. This vehicle is all legal, runs/drives well and has low mileage for it’s age.”

UPDATE:  This was first listed in 2009.  It was originally listed for $13,000 or make offer.  Now it is just ‘make offer’.  The first listing only had one pic.  The new listing has more pics and makes it appear that the jeep has been well taken care of (with the exception of those yellow lights on the grille — oh the inhumanity!). 

“1952 Willys Jeep restored and running. At the moment it needs a master cylinder to be replaced. Not being used anymore due to death in the family. I have a plow for it also. Make an offer. 763-755-4384”

“This is a very fun and reliable toy. 4 cylinder motor, was government owned for most of it’s life so it was well maintained. Has some rust but not much. 6 volt system all works. i have parts for a full top and doors that need to be repaired. this is a lot cheaper than a rhino, terex or the other side by sides and you can drive it on the street too. License is current. it has had a lot of parts replaced, it is ready to use.”

UPDATE: Status Unknown. Was $5800.

(09/15/2012) This has a rear PTO.  The drain holes have been filled.  It has a later model tailgate.  Other than that it looks like a good restoration candidate once the price drops.

UPDATE: This jeep was sold on eBay.

The jeep looks great.  The seller has plenty to share.

“Hi, I purchased this Willy’s from a gentleman in Texas who performed an approximate 3 year, nut and bolt, frame off restoration on it. As far as I can tell from the paper work, and speaking with the previous owner, this vehicle has always been in Texas up until now. I have a photo file of over 2,500 images on three compact discs that contain every aspect of the restoration, as well as a meticulously kept journal of hand written notations, and a box of receipts totaling well over $20,000. I have included 12  images of the restoration in process prior to my purchasing it, as well as 12 images of how it appears today. Every single part of this Willy’s has been disassembled and either rebuilt, renewed or replaced (for full disclosure I should mention that I’ve noticed the rubber boot on the shifter and a couple other rubber bits show some age). Every part, including the motor, transmission, drive drain, suspension, complete electrical system….. has been rebuilt. I can provide you with a before and after image (and receipt) of practically any and every part on this jeep. The entire vehicle was taken down to bare metal, primed with a rust inhibiting primer and painted. No corners were cut and no expense spared. This was obviously a passion and not a money making venture for this man. I have owned it for about a year and half now. When I received the jeep it had an oil leak coming from the main tranny seal. When the restoration was done, an original felt seal was used and they are notorious for leaks. I replaced the transmission with a new, rebuilt T-90, and installed a new rubber, steel spring main seal. When driven around town, only a tiny drop or two will leak from the seal when it is parked,  but when driven off road it will leak a bit more. Maybe a tablespoon’s worth. Other than that, the jeep starts, drives, shifts and performs strong. Only 850 miles have been put on the Willy’s since the restoration (see odometer)  and only 300 on the tranny. There are only a few flaws I would like to mention. One is that the fuel gauge works intermittently, mostly it reads empty. On occasion, with no rhyme or reason, it will kick in. The headlight switch works, but sometimes requires that you push it in and out a few times before the lights come on. Once they are on, they stay on until you put the switch in the off position. On the neck of the radiator, where the cap locks on, the seal will leak some fluid. But again, only when driving off road and it doesn’t amount to much. other than that, this Willy’s is pretty much bullet proof. They are fun to drive around town and climb like you wouldn’t believe. What you see in the pictures, aside from a few spare parts, receipts, repair and owner’s manuals is what you get. I do not have a top for it. All original and hard to find parts were used in the restoration, from the turn signal switch, to the horn and side steps. It retains it’s original 6 volt charging system. Once again, rebuilt generator, new regulator and battery. If you are interested in entering and winning any beauty contests with this jeep, this is not the one for you. All the body work was completed without the use of body filler. Although at first glance it appears show quality, with a closer look you can see where body repairs were performed, welds made and sanded. Areas on the hood which had had rust were not filled in, just treated and painted leaving evidence of past pitting. The good news is, is that there is now ZERO rust on this jeep and it is straight and solid as can be, no reason it won’t be around another 62 years. I hate to be selling it, but our family is moving to Los Angeles and I don’t see having much use for it there. …. see ebay add for additional info”
