1946 JeepRod New Port Richey, FL **SOLD**

• CATEGORIES: Jeep Rods This site contains affiliate links for which I may be compensated.

UPDATE: **SOLD** Was on eBay

“Way cooler than a T-Bucket … and a blast to drive!

’46 Jeep Street Rod / Rat Rod. 2×3 rectangular tube frame, Lincoln front end with disc brakes, radius rods and volks steering box. leaf spring mounted S-10 rear (open), 400 cl. small block Chevy with a mild cam, 4 barrel dual feed carb. and roadster headers. Turbo 400 tranny w/manual reverse valve body, B&M ratchet shifter and trans cooler. Also has aluminum radiator and electric fan. Not sure of the mileage on the motor but it has great oil pressure and runs nice and cool. Shocks were never installed but it seems to ride fine just like it is.

Nice build quality and very fast! Ready to trim out to your personal taste … ie: decals, ratrod artifacts etc.

This little beast is street legal and comes with a clear FL. title. Welcome to come check it out before you bid. Otherwise please ask questions first. Only had a couple hundred miles put on it since it was built.

I got it as part of a trade and it’s been sitting a while so if it was me I would freshen up the carb and throw in a set of plugs. The only other thing I can think it could use is a good alignment since it was never done when it was built … but it is 100% drivable like it is. I’m just a stickler for the little things.”

1949 Jeepster Hockessin, DE eBay

• CATEGORIES: Jeepster This site contains affiliate links for which I may be compensated.

UPDATE: The seller indicates this is a 1950, but as Bob and Bill point out, it was manufactured in 1949.

This looks nice.

“Up for auction is a 1950 Willys Jeepster. The car runs and drives perfectly, and is an excellent car show candidate or cruiser. The Willys had an older restoration, and has no rust. Equipped with the more desirable 6 cylinder engine and the 3 speed manual transmission, the Jeepster is a turn-key car you could get in and drive anywhere.

• CATEGORIES: CJ5 • TAGS: , This site contains affiliate links for which I may be compensated.

UPDATE: Price dropped to $12,500.

(09/26/2013) This jeep has an unusually customized dash. The louvered rear and hood give it a different look as well.

“I’m selling my recently restored 1963 Jeep. I love this thing but it is simply not practical for me. I run around way to much with work. This jeep runs like new and everything works. No squeeking, no dents, it’s like new. There are a few minor nicks in the paint but nothing major. I shipped this down from the states back in April. It has 1900 miles on it since being restored. It has Bluetooth retro sound stereo with kicker speakers. Perfect island ride. Turns lots of heads. Handles hills no problem. I have taken very good care of this jeep. I hate to sell it but I’m buying another trick and I can’t keep 3 vehicles. I’m asking $13,500 Serious inquiries only please. 340.626.9308”

4 Hurricane Rims Montpelier, OH **SOLD**

• CATEGORIES: Tires and Rims This site contains affiliate links for which I may be compensated.

UPDATE: **SOLD**. Were $200.

These rims look in good shape.

“A set of 4 turbine style aluminum wheels of a 79 bronco, fits most f-150, jeeps and many more. 5 bolt 5.5″ lug pattern. these are 8.5″ wide inside the bead and about 9.357″ out to out. backspacing is about 3.5″. Really fit the bronco well but we went to wider wheels and bigger tires so these can go.

$200 with the lug nuts and washers, no center caps. these are the larger center bore wheels that should work on the older Jeeps with the larger diameter lockouts.”

This is a good looking truck.

1956-truck-santacruz-ca1 1956-truck-santacruz-ca2 1956-truck-santacruz-ca3

“Quite the classic. Easily the most commented-upon car I’ve ever driven, you really can’t go anywhere without questions and compliments.
This was my mom’s toy and daily driver for many years. A generally good condition, pretty original specimen. Not all hacked-up like almost all of the ones you see around and just new enough to go on the freeway in it’s original trim.
The motor is the “super-hurricane” flat-head 6 cylinder it runs fine with a recent valve job. The transmission was rebuilt before we bought it and holds all gears nicely uphill and down, there is an old Warn “all range” overdrive that allows highway speeds with no undue strain on the motor, drivetrain or driver. It also gives you a total of 12 forward and 4 reverse speeds for offroading or just showing-off.
