“2 1956 Willys wagon for sale or trade. i will consider a trade for a Willys truck. Two bodies, the white one has a frame under it. Not sure on the condition of the frame. The green is off its frame. The frame looks to be in good condition for its year. Looks like if you mix windows you will have a full set with no cracks. All windows are in both bodies, but some are cracked. Green body looks like it is in good shape. Little problem around the rear wheel well. One set of seats. No good engines. White has old block, and looks like tranny in back of it.

(07/10/2012) I wondered why this looked odd, but then I read “Suzuki Drive Train” . . .
“1946 Willys flat fender jeep, very cool, Suzuki drive train, runs great $3200 847 533-975 zero”
1948 CJ-2A Grass Valley, CA **SOLD**
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $2500.
(08/21/2012) This doesn’t run and doesn’t have a valid title.
“I have this amazing little jeep that I bought from a buddy of mine that was clearing his property to sell and I thought I would restore it but I was just let go from my job and have to downsize my car collection.
At any rate, the Willys is very complete and original down to the original Motorola radio (not sure if it works but it’s there)
Original 134ci (2.2l) flat head 4cyl hooked to the 3spd manual and original twin stick transfer case. Axles, suspension, steering, and even shackles are also original. Frame has surface rust but absolutely no rot.
Has a few rusty spots in the normal areas on the body and there are a few patch panels but firewall forward is in amazing shape, not even a dent in either fender. Has newer 1 piece windshield on it now but comes with original WILLYS stamped squared off split windshield and a couple of fabric doors in ok shape but no top. Hood is bent in but can be easily pushed back to shape
I haven’t been able to start it for a couple reasons (mainly because I can’t find spark plug wires that fit the ignition cap) and no time to play with it. Carb is also off and needs a lot of cleaning, but is the original from ’48. Oil bath air filter is also in good shape.
It appears to have been converted to 12V at one time, but I’m not certain, so I would make sure of that before tossing a battery in it just to see if it cranks. . . .

“This “Jeep” is in excellent condition. Having only 2 owners within the last 55 years it is obvious that it has been well taken care of and maintained. The first owner used the PTO to cut firewood on the farm. The current owner is a Jeep collector and has keep the truck stored indoors. If you are looking for a classic vintage “working mans” truck, here it is!”

It runs with some smoke.
“Needs work. Engine runs but smokes. Running gears work good.”
1942 GPW Fort Worth, TX **SOLD**
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was on eBay
This needs work.
“You are bidding on a 1942 Ford GPW Jeep, which my brother and I inherited from our uncle. It has been sitting in a barn for the past 5 to 7 years since the engine was started. The motor will turn over, but I didn’t attempt to try and start. I will try and list everything about the jeep, to the best of my knowledge, and include pictures.
My uncle converted to 12 volt, so will need to be changed back to 6 volt.
Will need to change vacuum operated windshield motor back to manual operated windshield wiper.
Has slight damage to right front fender. ( shown in pictures )
Floor boards under front seats and rear floor boards has rust out areas
Underneath above gas tank has rusted spots. ( shown in pictures )
Windshield glass looks good, but frame rusted at bottom and missing center upright bars that makes it look like two windshields. ( shown in pictures )
Drivers side rear panel behind wheel has rusted out spot and passenger side has some bondo which could have had been some rust at one time this is the only places I saw in exterior body. ( shown in pictures )
Body seems solid except these areas
Frame looks solid
Transmission and transfer case complete
Motor complete
Steering wheel good shape no cracks
Front and back seats original except for material what’s left
Canopy canvas not original , but I think the frame is original
Will need to remove angle from frame at left driver’s rear shackle (shown in pictures) and replace with a support arm that attaches to shackle to be as original.
Have clear title”
1949 Jeepster Cleburne, TX **SOLD**
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was on eBay.
“Original 1949 Jeepster — NOT restored, but no dings, no rust. The interior is clean. The previous owner replaced the head gasket on the original 134 c. i. flathead engine and I replaced the six-volt battery, all belts, hoses, and radiator and did an oil change — all less than six months ago. The top frame and original side curtain frames are fine, but the top needs new fabric and both it and the side curtains need new plastic for the windows. The brake shoes all are at about 75%, but the I can’t open the master cylinder so I don’t know if the lines are bad or the master cylinder might be, but in either case the brakes DO NOT work. I have priced a master cylinder online at $69. The three-speed transmission with overdrive and clutch are strong, but the synchro appears to be bad. Sometimes it will go into gear just fine, other times it grinds. I spoke with a Jeepster guy in Florida who says he will do a complete transmission rebuild for $295 plus shipping. I have driven the Jeepster around my property (without the brakes) and the steering seems fine. It accelerates well, does not smoke (except when first started for about 30 seconds if it’s been sitting for several weeks) and doesn’t make any strange sounds. I was going to do a full restoration on it, but too many projects are ahead of it in line. The only damage I have seen is a hole about 2 inches in diameter on the side of the driver seat (shown in photos), a piece chipped off the right side rear seat step (shown in photos), and the hubcap on the spare tire has a crack in it . . . more on eBay”
1951 CJ-3A Hermiston, OR **SOLD**
1951 Truck Salt Lake City, Ut $1600
UPDATE: Price dropped to $1600.
(06/13/2011) Mark from Jeeptruck forwarded this one.
“The pickup came originally with a four-cylinder, but a prior owner installed a 1964 Ford 262 cubic inch straight-six. This engine came only in Ford’s one-ton and larger truck series. The Willys has been stored since 1985. It has a clear title. After rebuilding the carb, cleaning the fuel-pump, replacing the plugs, adjusting the valve lash, and pulling the oil pan to clean it and the oil pump, the truck starts easily and runs very smooth. While the original engine used a mechanical clutch linkage, the six-cylinder uses a hydraulic clutch. Clutch and brake hydraulics are supplied by an old-style GM one-reservoir brake/clutch master cylinder (looks identical to a Raybestos part #MC34404). This master cylinder is dry and rust filled, so it will need to be replaced. So currently the Willys has no clutch or brake action (The parking brake works great!). The Willys has its original T-90 (3-speed, floor-shift) transmission, Dana-18 transfer case, Dana-25 front differential, and Timken (clam-shell) rear differential. The body is solid except for the outer floorboards (which need to be replaced), and some corrosion at the rear sides of the bed (refer to the photos). The electrical system seems to be 12 volt, although the wiring is mostly original. The coil has a resistor before it (like 12 volt) and the ammeter shows charging in the normal range (uses a generator).
As the Willys has NO clutch or brake hydraulics, IT MUST BE TOWED OR SHIPPED. It is sold AS-IS; NO WARRANTY.
The Willys is in the Salt Lake City, Utah area. Contact by email at: randall1921@hotmail.com”
1946 CJ-2A Grants Pass, OR **SOLD**
