UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $9500.

“For sale is a very nice example of an unmolested early Willys Jeep CJ5. Its a 1957 with just over 14,000 original miles.. Starts, runs, drives, and stops as it should. This would be an incredible piece to do a full restoration on or just enjoy the originality and patina of it and hop in and go just like it is. That was my original intention on this one, just to address a few of the minor rust spots and enjoy it just like it is and was meant to be.”

UPDATE: Still Available.

Maury shared this nicely restored CJ-5, but it it’s not cheap. This also appears to have some rare Cutlas Bulldog hubs.

“Motorcar Studio is pleased to offer this fully restored 1959 Willys Jeep CJ-5. After WWII, Willys smartly capitalized on the success of their military Jeeps and began producing a ”Civilian Jeep” – or CJ – and the rest is history. This ”Universal Jeep,” as it was marketed at the time, was a huge hit and over 600,000 CJ-5s were produced from 1954 to 1983 – but few have been restored to this standard.

This CJ-5 was used as a grounds service vehicle for a drive-in movie theater in Cleveland, Ohio before being discovered and purchased in 2010 by a gentleman who embarked on a frame-off, nut-and-bolt restoration to exacting standards. The original tub was deemed to be too far gone to practically restore so a new steel tub was sourced from Willys-Overland Motors in Toledo, OH. The original fenders, hood, grille and windshield frame were in good condition and were retained for originality. The frame was media blasted and detailed. The correct President Red paint is excellent outside, inside and under the hood and the body is super straight.

UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $3700.

Looks like a good price. It has some early Cutlas PowerLock hubs.

“Runs great. 4cyl manual 4 wheel drive.”

Tom shared this low-mileage CJ-5. It has a documented history. Seats have been changed to cloth (read story), so at first they look worn, but it’s just the type of material. Overall, it seems in great shape.

http://www.sellajeep.com/mjs/sale18/adm347/adm347.html

“This CJ5 is all original. It has only 39,359 miles. Runs very well and has been driven a couple times a month. The original owner was a lady. I bought it from her in 2014. I replaced the radiator, fuel tank, shocks, leaf springs, heater core, tires, and gave it a tune-up. I only did this to maintain this jeeps integrity and dependability going forward.

Paint is excellent and shines as new. There is some noticeable wear after 43 years. I have taken it to local car shows and everyone is amazed at its condition. The hardcore car enthusiasts tell me over and over to do nothing more to this jeep. It has a documented story, it’s in rare shape, and is shows and runs amazingly well.

This is perfect for the individual wanting a daily driveable jeep or just a weekly joy ride without having to work on it first. It needs nothing mechanically. It is sound and fun to just putt-putt in.

I have a brown soft top, roll bar, rear mounted spare tire rack and owners manual. I also have the poster I had made telling a brief history of the jeep that I use at the shows.”

UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $10,500.

(09/26/2017) “Recently restored 1960 CJ5. Complete engine and transmission overhaul. Body is very solid. Period correct Braden LU2 pto driven winch. New NDT tires. Original hard top and doors come along with this rig. Price is firm at $10,500. Jeep is located in Haubstadt, IN.”

Many unique Tuxedo Park features including rare column shift 3-speed, padded dash and fender wells and curved chrome bumper. Kelsey-Hayes “Aristocrat” chrome wheels as dealer add-on.

(03/23/2018) Not many of the fastback tops around anymore.Looks like a solid jeep.

“1955 Willys Jeep. 4 wheel drive, manual transmission, original Hurricane 2.2 4 cylinder engine, new tires. Body is in good shape with little to no rust. Soft top included. I recently put a new set of pistons, rings and rod bearings in it. It smokes a little when running……I don’t think the rings have seated yet but it could possible need a little more motor work. It does run and runs good. U-joints were also recently replaced. Asking $7,000 but I am open to offers. Clear title in hand. CASH only. No paypal and will not ship.”

UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $15,900.
