The J-8 … I mean, seriously … the WWII J-8?

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

You are likely unfamiliar with the Willys Jeep WWII J-8.  Constructed in an underground bunker in Los Alamos by the same scientists who constructed the Atomic Bombs (they needed something to do on their days off) during WWII, this unique piece of WWII history wasn’t released until decades later by the folks at Chrysler.  (ok, so I made that last bit up — hey, it will be April Fools on Thursday — but I didn’t make up this Ad).

“Custom World War II Willy’s Jeep Army Edition J-8 Lookalike. Why shell out over $50K+ for an authentic Military J8 that you cant drive on the road when u can get this 4 door version for tens of thousands less? ….”

Dana 27 closed knuckle front axle and a 44 in the rear , both have 5.38 gears. Hudson steering conversion. It runs and drives good. Big 11″ drum brakes and A GREAT HEATER.

In the last year it has been driven to the Tricities and back. It is in Ellensburg now but I will drive it back tomorrow night. It is that good of a rig. Primitive and Jeepish.

Drive train is fine, clutch, trans and tranfer case all functional,solid frame and body. The second unit has no body, but a complete running gear and motor.

1947 CJ-2A Morgan, Ut $2500

• CATEGORIES: CJ-2A This site contains affiliate links for which I may be compensated.

UPDATE: This is now listed for $1900

(03/11/2010) Brett spotted this.  It has been patched a bit, but it sounds like it still rambles around well.

“This is a 1947 Willys Jeep it runs and drives awesome. The 4 wheel drive works great it is a 3 speed manual. The interior has been rhino lined doesnt look bad. The gas tank has been moved to the back behind the seats. All the lights work. The tranny shifts smooth. The body doesnt have rust wouldnt take long to be ready for paint. The hood is not original it was made looks pretty good. The windshield is plxy glass. The tires are 31″ and are about 75% tread on them. The jeep has been up at the cabin since 1993 stored in the garage used in the summer. The motor is a Chevy 6 cylinder. The oil pan does leak but would be an easy fix. This jeep would be a perfect hunting vehicle or pull behind your motorhome or whatever. It does have the hitch on the front for pulling it around. If you have any questions feel free to call me 801-821-1464 thanks. If you do win the auction i will need a deposit within 48 hrs of the auction. Shipping prices will range from $300 to $800 depending on your location. I will help with loading of the jeep on a transporter if needed just let me know.”

(03/22/2010) It runs and drives (the seller is getting it a tune-up).  It sounds like the body might be rough.  No pics, but it this might be a deal.

“Tan Jeep in ok condition. will be doing a tune up on it over the next few days and that should cure the problem it had with starting. once it starts up the vehical runs strong and works well. it comes with a new, in the box wiring harness made specifically for this vehical from Kaiser Willys that I never got around to installing. let me know if you’re intersted and we’ll get a time set up to look at it. also email me if you want pictures. it was buried in the garage when my roommate cleaned up last weekend so it will take time to dig out. ”

1960 FC-150 Wilder Vt eBay

• CATEGORIES: FC150-FC170-M677 • TAGS: This site contains affiliate links for which I may be compensated.

UPDATE:  This is back on eBay

(03/16/2010) Here’s a nice looking build with an engine and tranny update.  It still needs some interior work.

“Rare find, 1959 Jeep FC-150.  This is a stock appearing FC-150 that has the following modifications/improvements:
1. Chassis has been sandblasted and painted with POR15.

2. First engine was the wimpy 4 cylinder and I then changed it to a V6 Dauntless from a 1967 Jeepster after resealing and rebuilding all rotating components. Engine is fitted with headers and dual exhaust.

3. Transmission was changed from the 3 speed to a Turbo 400 automatic.  There is no evidence inside the cab that it is an automatic.  The shifter is the original and the pedals are all the same.  The Brake and the Clutch pedal have been joined.

4.  There is a new wiring harness and new instruments installed in crinkle finish dash.  The interior is without headliner cardboard and doors do not have cardboard panels installed.

5.  New windshield and rear glass, one door has new glass.

6.  All NEW springs, not rebuilt. New Shocks, new Brakes.  Front axle has disc brakes.

7.  Body has NEW cab corners, NEW floors.  The cab was plastic bead paint removed and spray weld to treat any traces of rust.  There are no bondo patches anywhere.

No stories, I have had it long enough and I dislike interior work so I never finished the interior.  It is quite powerful and runs like a bear.  I have never had it off road in 10 years.  My Son needs a car and my wife insists on airbags.  I have over $15k in this at this point but it is time for it to go. There is no title as Vermont does not title vehicles over 15 years old.  Sold on a bill of sale.”

• CATEGORIES: CJ-2A This site contains affiliate links for which I may be compensated.

UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $300

For a parts jeep, this looks like a decent price.

“1948 willys jeep cj2a.  same body style as the ones you see in all the WWII movies (only this is the civilian version). has original L-134 Go Devil engine, has original trans, transfer case, front and rear ends, has original wheels. I have taken off the carb, intake and exhaust manifolds, the windsheild (with good glass), seats and original head.  head has been shaved and cleaned up by a guy off of US 70 E in LaGrange, NC, I replaced part if the rubber fuel line.  I have a new head gasket for it.  Needs body off, tub needs to be either replaced of the appropriate replacement body parts welded on.  Before I removed the head and replaced the fuel line, I figured out that the rubber fuel line was worn out so I wasn’t getting any fuel so I put gas in the carb and got it to move a little ways after I figured out the shift pattern and before the carb ran out of gas if you put it back together it will run.  all the parts you need are on this web site http://www.kaiserwillys.com/.  I am willing to part out or sell the whole thing for $300.00 or best offer (serious offers only not junk e-mails please). If you want larger parts (i.e. engine, transmission, ect.) give me a call a head of time and you can help me pull them for you (I should have all the tools needed eccept a cherry picker) and Ill get what I need from my toolbox at work.  for smaller parts come by and pick them up”

1961 FC-170 Lake Wales, Fl **SOLD**

• CATEGORIES: FC150-FC170-M677 • TAGS: , This site contains affiliate links for which I may be compensated.

UPDATE: **SOLD** Was on eBay.

“This “Go-anywhere,” “Tough-job traction” truck is on the market here for the first time in over 20 years.  Originally purchased from a glass co. in OHIO by the current owner.   He has done a complete frame off restoration as you can plainly see in the photos. Introduced in 1957 the Jeep Willys FC-170 was wider and carried a heavier load than the FC-150.  It has a Kaiser 6-226 motor inline 6 that is good on gas.  You won’t get stuck with high/low option 4WD and LT235/85R16 tires.

The bed is made of appatong wood said to be 5 times harder than oak for those heavy loads.  The truck has a 7,000 lb. GVW, a 103″ wheelbase with a 108″ bed.  The Cab-over design is very unique. There were approximately 2,000 FC-170’s built in ’61.  You will be guaranteed to be the hit of the car shows…”

1951 CJ-3A Salinas, CA **SOLD**

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

UPDATE:  **SOLD** Was $2800.

It needs a little work.

“1951 CJ3A Willys Jeep. The Good: Complete, mostly original, flat-four. Also includes full 6-point cage, new tires, new shocks, new gas tank and lines, and new brake lines. The Issues: It has been sitting for a while and was in the middle of a 12-volt conversion that was never finished (no generator or alternator currently) when I bought it, wiring needs attention, turns over and starts, has a couple rust-out spots under the rear tail lights, quater size hole under the drivers seat in the pan, and rust in the rigger body braces under the body near the frame (where the wood was located). No pink slip.

I bought it as a project and have not had the time to finish it. It had been sitting for a while prior to me buying it… I massaged the cylinders with some Marvel oil, added some fresh gas to the carb and it cranked over and it tried to run. Sputtered, puttered, but ran. Since then, I have replaced all the gas lines, cleaned the new tank (it had old gas in it), added two inline filters, new plugs, new wires, and there it sat. Thus, I know it’s not frozen and only needs minor tweaking to run.”

Here’s a pretty good looking project.  It appears some good work has already been done.

“47 CJ2A needs to be assembled. 1.Frame needs brake cylinder kits installed. Have kits. 2 Body has section in tool box under passenger seat that needs patched otherwise it needs small dings fixed. Its in very good condition. 3. Has good windshield and grille and fenders and tailgate. Just need to be bolted on. 4. Engine was supposed to be rebuilt. I put new gaskets in it but ran into problems when I tried to put the oil pump in. It ruined the gears on the pump but have a pump that gears can be taken off of. Not sure what is the problem there. May need a new cam or just a better gear?. Flywheel has been turned and ready to install. Have 16″ rims with old tires for it, but the 15″ tires for pushing it around go with it. Have a steering wheel but needs to be epoxyed. I have too many projects right now so I decided to sell it, but will keep it if I can’t get what I have into it out of it. Body and parts are really nice condtion.”
