The tub, fuel tank, floors & tool box (under the passenger seat) have Line-X coating.
Screws, bolts, nuts, and washers visible on exterior and inside the cab are stainless.

Everything works like new. Just warm it up and go!

Original ‘new off the shelf’ turn signal indicator
Heater
Defrost via vent hose to heater

No missing ‘original’ or ‘original style’ parts…even the original chrome glove box button.

No rust!

Included:
Tow bar
Tow lights
Roll bar
Soft top & doors
Spare tires
Jack

Problems: Body has a few character dents (was fun, kinda regretting it now), Jeep could use paint, E-brake not holding.

Receipts are available….So why put money into an antique fixer-upper when it’s mostly done? A fixer-upper eventually cost way, way more than this Jeep.

There appears to be some rust, but otherwise this looks clean.  The seller says it needs assembly, so maybe it doesn’t look like this anymore?

UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $800.

The seller lists this as a M-38A1, but it looks like a CJ-5 to me.  Given the bumper, I wonder if this wasn’t a service station jeep at some point.  Here’s another example of the same bumper.

“i got a 1950 something willys jeep runs drives no brakes thats why every corner has a dent in it lol needs gas tank running it out of a gallon can now has plow frame im trying to get a plow for it if i find one it goes with it will need a tune up and exhaust work great little plow truck the motor is a Fhead 3 speed trans it is what it is so if your looking for a cheap plow jeep thanks for looking.”

UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $800

The frame has been powder coated and most everything is there, but the seller claims this is a “mystery jeep”?  I’m gonna bet the seller also doesn’t have a title for this. This just sounds a bit sketchy on the face of it.  I’m gonna guess this is a late 1950s/ early 1960s CJ-5 or CJ-3B?

“mystery jeep for sale. I have all the parts you need to put it all together except motor! The frame has been powder coated, brand new springs, shocks, tires and rims!!”

UPDATE:  This is back on eBay

(08/15/2012) Here’s an unusual CJ-5.  It appears to have been modified by the same people/person who created these other modified jeeps, an observation I’m basing on the top.  Given the jeep is from Hesperia, there’s a very good change it is the same group.  Note that the jeep was stored for more than three decades.

“Here’s my 1957 jeep, it was stored from around the late 70’s till 2010, still has the original california black plate, runs and drives great!!

paint, interior, and engine change where done around 1960, was owned and customized by a california car customizer in the fresno area

Buz spotted this one.  It is a no-reserve auction on a beautiful, stock CJ-5.  You’ll want to look at the pics of this one.  Compare the picture of it to the brochure below in the next post, too.

“Selling for my computer inept friend.  This 1960 Willys Jeep CJ5 is in Beautiful Original Condition, probably the nicest original CJ5 in existence.  Totally Original Paint, Upholstery, Engine, Miles, Everything is ORIGINAL. 21055 miles. Clear Title.  Original Spare Tire is not shown in the pictures but is included in the sale.  The tires are believed to be the originals and are in good shape with normal wear and no weather checking.  The Jeep has been stored in a carefully climate controlled building and has seen just enough use in the last many years to keep everything functional and working well.  The Jeep starts easily, runs perfectly, goes down the road as it should, and it needs nothing.  The Hardtop appears to have never been removed since new.  All fluids are fresh and the battery is new.  Look closely at the pictures, they tell the story about this vehicle better than words, more detailed pictures are available if you request them via email.  The Jeep shows very minimal use and wear with no damage or repairs.  All sheet metal is in oustanding condition and the only corrosion is very minimal, located near the tailights on both sides, the pictures show this clearly. Floor pans, fenders, quarter panels hood, undercarriage, were undercoated early in this CJ’s life and have been remarkably preserved.  There are no hidden problems, repairs, or any funny business … This jeep is the real thing, a near museum quality original, unmolested survivor.”
