Gus is a 1965 Willys originally from the south west, which means NO RUST. A retired man with a history in restoring military Jeeps saved Gus from the cutting torch. A few misguided teenagers concocted a plan to cut Gus’ fenders and make him into a “rock crawler”. Our retired friend couldn’t let that happen, and decided restoring and upgrading Gus would be a great retirement project.

$11,800 – We are open to trades, prefer interesting/older cars.

UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $3900.

“For Sale is my awesome 1977 Jeep DJ-5. I hate to sell it, but I dont drive it enough to justify keeping it anymore. These jeeps are getting really hard to find. They have a cool hard top, sliding doors, and swing out rear door. This one is even more rare because it has the best engine combo that was available for these jeeps: Legendary AMC 232 In-Line 6 cylinder engine and the 727 torqueflight automatic transmission. Engine runs great and transmission shifts smooth. Even the “fun” features work (wipers, horn, lights, etc.) This thing is awesome all around. 3″ Lift. New knobby tires. No rust. Ready to cruise around town.”

1954 CJ-3B Milwaukie, OR **SOLD**

• CATEGORIES: CJ-3B This site contains affiliate links for which I may be compensated.

UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $2500.

It’s a project with a rear PTO.

“I’m selling a project that will not get done in the near future so in an effort to save It, its time to move on to a new home. This is a CJ-3B also called a high hood. WE have all the major parts to reassemble (body parts and such). It was stripped down to sand blast the body and clean up the running gear. I do have a box of most everything that was removed. The rust is very minimal to not having any at all except surface rust, the one bad spot you can see in the pics. This jeep was never modified in the past, that makes it a good resto project or you can be the first to start cutting on it. It has stock running gear with a rear PTO. May consider a part trade for chevy truck stuff I’m not looking for junk and will still want cash too. Possibly an auto-trans t-400 or T-350 2wd. again no junk please don’t waste my time.”

Barney Roos Believes in the Farm Jeep; Canadian Experts Not so Sure

• CATEGORIES: Features, Old News Articles This site contains affiliate links for which I may be compensated.
1943-09-06-palm-beach-photo

This photo appeared in a September 06, 1943, promoting the jeep as a tractor.

1943 an interview with Barney Roos appeared in a Palm Beach newspaper that explored his automotive history. In the article, Roos promoted the jeep as a practical alternative to the standard tractor. Another article in the Milwaukee Journal seconded farmer’s optimism regarding the jeep (there were many articles promoting the jeep as a farm tractor. Here’s a September 06, 1943 article).

A year later, two Canadian Agricultural specialists were much less confident in the jeep’s potential, suggesting the jeep drove to fast, the transmission was not strong enough, and the jeep lacked power to be a good farm vehicle. Willys Overland must have agreed with those researchers, because they addressed those issues by installing lower gears, which both added power and slowed down the jeep. They also updated the transmission to the T-90.

I’ll begin with the 1944 Canadian article first as that is comparatively short.

The Official name for the Jeep — Peep? Bantam Car? Other?

• CATEGORIES: Features, Old News Articles • TAGS: This site contains affiliate links for which I may be compensated.

By April 1942 newspaper editors weren’t sure what to call the new fangled quarter-ton bantam-willys-ford invention. The problem was highlighted in this Sarasota-Herald-Tribune article which surveyed editors’ uses of different descriptive words. Note the naval editor’s response at the very bottom of the article.

1942-04-16-sarasota-herald-tribune-jeep-or-peep

Eventually, a decision was made. In May of 1942 newspapers announced the armored division officially named the quarter-ton command/reconnaissance car the ‘Peep’, while the half-ton armored car was called the ‘Jeep’. The Milwaukee Journal published two photos to help readers distinguish between the two.

1942-04-22-milwaukee-journal-jeep-peep

That’s a Ford GP at the top, while at the bottom is what I believe to be an early Dodge Command Car. You can view other earlier examples like the one above at the Command Car site.

This article in the Pittsburgh Press, in May of 1942 confirms that the names “jeep” and “peep” had been transformed from slang into legitimate words that could appear in dictionaries.

1942-05-24-pittsburgh-press-jeep-peep

 

As late as 1984, some WWII vets didn’t know why they called the jeep a peep. According to this article in the Spokane-Review, Patton’s 3rd Army Armored Division continued to call the jeep a peep throughout the war.

UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $4995.

Not many of these RHD J30s in the US.

“1966 Mitsubishi Jeep J30 4 Door 4X4
Built by Mitsubishi Heavy Industries under license from Kaiser Jeep.
These were made from the late 1950s through the late 1990s. However, very rare here in the US.
It features a 4 Cylinder gas motor with a 3 speed manual column shift. (Three on the tree).
It has a THREE speed transfer case 2 Hi, 4 Hi, 4 Med, 4 Lo, and N.
The motor runs quite well. It shifts fine. We drove it to the lot.
However, the brakes need work before it can be driven.
Overall the Jeep is pretty solid. There is some minimal rust in various rocker and door spots.
The frame, floors, and underside look remarkably well. The truck came from Texas.
The interior appears to be mostly original. The seat upholstery is good, but the cushioning material has deteriorated.
The door panels need recovering and the headline is missing (the insulation is still there).
After market gauges and radio have been added many, many years ago. The radio actually works.
The tire look fairly recent. It looks like it was probably repainted eons ago.”
