1964 CJ-6 Ada, OK $3000

July 31, 2012 • CATEGORIES: CJ-6 This site contains affiliate links for which I may be compensated.

The seller claims ‘Just the body for this style of Jeep can often sell for what I am asking’. umm . . . how do people come up with stuff like this?

“I have a few items for sale or trade besides just this Jeep you can view them all at http://Rapid-Sale.com

This is a unique Jeep CJ6 that is very rare and hard to find.

The CJ6 has a 20″ longer wheelbase than the standard Jeep.

There is still some work that needs to be done for this to be an everyday driver.

It has a 231 V6 in it with the oversized tires and wheels ready for off road.

The lights and winch have been removed and used on a different project.

The windshield costs $150 to replace and I am in the process of doing that for you.

I am more than happy to answer any questions you may have.

Just the body for this style of Jeep can often sell for what I am asking.

I welcome Cash and will look at your trade ideas. No Low Ballers.

Call Michael at Five 80 – 320 – 291 Four”

1948 CJ-2A Farmersville, TX SOLD

July 31, 2012 • CATEGORIES: CJ-2A • TAGS: Nice. This site contains affiliate links for which I may be compensated.

UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $3000.

Clutch is frozen, but otherwise looks solid.

“1948 Willys jeep CJ2A that has sat for about 4 years. I put new plugs, battery, master cylinder for the brakes and clutch, new fuel pump, and cleaned carburator and the the tank. The jeep runs and the motor is still strong. The jeep has good tires, rhino lined, new seat covers, seat belts, warn lockouts, tow bar and gun rack. The only think that is still wrong with jeep is the slave cylinder for the clutch is froze up from sitting. I have grown tired of working on it and putting money in it and decided to sell it. The guy I bought it off used it to take to Colorado and assured me that four wheel drive and transmission was all working good when parked. I went thru the gears and the transfer case goes in and out of four wheel easy. The last time it was on the road was 2008.

Hard to say if there is much value here or not.

“Willys jeep cj2 complete original except it has a front cap off of a willys truck or station wagon. Engine will turn over if you pull it but the starter is bad. Probably doesn’t have much compression. Not for sale for scrap, I don’t want it recycled into a toyota fender. Buy it for parts for the one sitting in your back yard.”

I know I’m not supposed to be posting today, but Ann and Kasia, my daughter, were running errands when they spotted this CJ-5. So, they gave chase and flagged him down. I wonder if the guy thought he’d get jeep-jacked? On the other hand, maybe it isn’t two often two beautiful women flag him down? Either way, they cornered their prey and shot the picture. No wonder my beautiful bride is a permanent part of the eWillys Team! 🙂
