UPDATE: Still Available

(11/18/2013) Not sure what makes this “One of a Kind”, but it does look in good condition.

“One of a kind….1954 Willy’s Jeep, completely rebuilt, registered, insured and ready to drive away…This was my Dad’s pet project and he spent lots of time and money in fixing this jeep to great condition. Unfortunately he can no longer drive and has decided to sell. $14,500.00 is well worth the vehicle. More pictures and information available upon request.”

“I purchased this Jeep in late December of 2012 from a restorer and I immediately had new brakes, including emergency brake, and wheel cylinders, shocks, rebuilt steering box, steering dampener and tie rods installed to make it more road friendly. It had the “wobble of death” when I got it but travels very nicely now. I actually had it up to 45 mph and it did great. I paid $12,600 and put about $2,000 into it. I am selling it because I need the money for other investments and firm on the price. I am not a collector or a restorer so I may not be able to answer all of your question. I have kept it out of the weather and only put about 10 miles on it. The Jeep came painted and stenciled as is and I can’t really tell you much about the color or stencils. It is a 24 volt system and the rear turn signals, taillights, headlights and brake lights work. The windshield wipers do not work but I believe all of the components are there. Tires are about 80-90 % tread. The restorer ensured me that the engine was completely overhauled but needs to have the head re-torqued and the valves readjusted after break-in. Current odometer on restored engine is 182 miles. I also have the Title if needed. I am located in Mobile, Alabama and the best way to reach me is through my email”

UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $8000.

“1952 US Army M38A1 Willys Jeep
A running, driving 1952 M38A1 Jeep. It has been restored, but it is an older restoration. It has been a fun around town driver for me for the last year and a half. It is not perfect, but it is a complete, original (as in all the parts are there) jeep. Has a rarer depot rebuilt engine. Leave as, tinker with on the weekends, or do a complete tear down. Still has the 24v electrical system. All fluids changed when I bought it. Tires have age cracking. Have a new set of rubber brake lines.”

This looks nice.

“For sale is an excellent example of restoration down to the last detail. This ’52 M38A1 is completely restored…like the day it would have shown up in the motor pool. Now ready for service as a real head turner around town or in a parade. Also includes full canvas and side panels also in great condition. Asking $13,500. Additional pics available.

This looks good.

“Up for sale is a 1956 WILLYS-OVERLAND M38A1 (CJ5). This vehicle is in great shape, she has had a full mechanical restoration, Brand new tires, 12 volt system, rebuilt the original motor, clutch and transmission.

The final pieces of the restoration would be to do some light paint work, However it is not necessary. She runs and drives EXCELLENT.

This is a chance to own real AMERICAN HISTORY, I do not have the original prominence. This is a true military Willy’s-Overland and not a converted CJ5.
Please feel free to Contact me with any questions!

“Great 1955 M38A1 – owned it for roughly 6mo’s and in that time have significantly improved the drivability and reliability of it. It is still 100% original, down to it’s 24volt system. 4 wheel drive will climb you up a tree. Runs and drives well, and feels like a 58yr old Jeep! Would be an ideal beach buggy(didn’t get a permit this year, or it would be!).

Most recent work includes:
Head completely reworked, new coil, new plugs, valves adjusted, etc.

Cosmetically it’s in great shape – especially considering it’s age. No significant rust, some surface rust on the frame – no big deal. I decided to have it repainted from it’s original OD Green to a mil-spec Sand Beige (a 3 stage PPG color). I’d say it’s a level above an amateur job, but certainly a 10 footer. A fantastic color though, one that you don’t see enough for this era of Jeep: hence why I had it repainted. The seats were also redone to factory original. Bimini too included.”

UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $9800.

(08/12/2013) This looks in good shape.
