UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $1250.

“1966 Jeep CJ-5 factory stock Buick V6 and headers. Stock running gear 3.73 diffs. Running gear is intact and not broken. No bondo. No rust holes. Has not been wrecked. No frame cracks. Solid tub has been sand blasted bottom and inside. Swing away spare tire carrier. 6 point cage. Has been in my garage for 8 years. Ran and drove when parked. I began collecting new and used parts off and on with the intention of making a streetable rig. Good for some mild weekend wheeling. Some parts mocked-up on the chassis are GM Saginaw power steering with tilt column. AMC type rear mounted fuel tank includes filler cap insert (still has stock tank under seat). AMC type heater box. Other parts included are: locker spool for rear diff, GM (Blazer) front disc spindles, door frames, Rancho 1 1/2″ springs and shocks. 1″ shackles. Aluminum 15″ wheels. New parts: Spring bushing kit, rear diamond plate, LED taillights, body mount kit (stock height), windshield seal/frame to cowl seal, pedal rubbers, shifter boots. The only body damage is very minor on right front fender. Surface rust”

With a recently rebuilt V-6, a straight, non-rust looking body and a full rollcage, the price on this looks really good.

A reader sent this our direction.  One interesting feature is the rectangular square on the driver’s side.  That’s not something standard is it?  It includes an Overdrive.

Looks like this is street legal, too.  Gotta love the 1944 frame .. I wonder what the story is behind that.

This might be a pretty good price considering it includes an overdrive and a nice looking roll cage.

It appears there are four levers (tranny, two tc, and either an OD or a PTO), but I can’t tell which.

“I have a 53, ideal for a parts vehicle. Four intact fenders, Hood, and straight body. Transmission lost 2nd gear, so it has been sitting for long enough to where the motor needs a rebuild too. I know it has enough parts on it to warrant the price, so i am not very flexible.

I included this CJ-5 because the seller has done something interesting to the front grille.  I haven’t decided whether I’m a fan of it or not, but it’s an interesting idea.  The jeep itself looks great.

UPDATE:  Was priced at $1000

And one more great find from Brian.  This is a brand new, never mounted CJ-5 fiberglass body along with enough parts to get a project started.  Of course, new, the body and front clip would cost a lot more, approx $3600 from one source before taxes and shipping.

“Cj5 fiberglass tub, cj5 fiberglass front end, 2 new black front seats, black rear seat it great condition, amc 304 engine hasn’t ran in a couple years, amc 20 and amc 30 axels, cj5 frame, window frame with new glass, 2 gas tanks, front and rear drive shafts, brake pedal, gas pedal, emergency brake, steering wheel and steering box, steering shaft for axel, dash with wiring needs new gauges and a couple other small odd parts. alb1185@yahoo.com.  Take it all for $1000 obo, will trade.

This looks like a good price on a nice, upgraded CJ-5.

A reader asked me to look at a CJ-5 he was interested in purchasing. So, I spent a little time reviewing the sale of CJ-5s and was surprised to see how many are for sale and how many great deals are out there.  At the beginning of 2007 I spent January and February looking for good prices on CJ-5s, so I got a pretty good idea of the market then;  It’s just amazing the change 2 years later.  Here’s a good example.

“Red CJ5 4X4 Jeep. Good condition. Full roll cage. Tilt steering wheel. Chevy sm. block. 4-sp. stick. 2″ lift with 31″ tires. After market wheels. Body is in Great shape. Call for more info.

This seems a great price for a good looking CJ-5.

“61 willys jeep 2” lift rebuilt 225 v6 @ transmission, 8000 lb. pto winch $1500.00 “

This looks like a nice cage.  The body looks in pretty good shape as well.  Includes a  front clip as well.

“1970’s jeep tub and front clip with newer frame. full cage and windsheild. Sorry no title. Was race jeep at one time. Great project has not been cut up. Please phone calls only!!!!!!!!!!! No email axcess. (509) 990-2730 front clip is sanded and ready to paint.”

It appears the front end is slightly f&*$ed up.  I’m pretty sure those front wheels should be going the same direction.  If you have a front end, this one might be worth snatching up as the seller sounds like they might be will to deal to get rid of it.  Maybe it’s just a broken tierod?  It appears that might even be a terra tire on the front left.

“I’m selling a 55 Willys. I bought it for 1200 I don’t have the time or the money to fix it. I need to sell fast. any question please call me 360-318-5755 1200 obo”

Brian sent in this find.  He notes that CJ-5s like this in the midwest are hard to find without being plagued with rust.  As Brian note, it’s also likely to have the offset 30 spline axles.
