UPDATE:  Price raised to $3400

(12/04/09) This looks in great shape for the price.

“Neat little Jeep…fun to drive…V-6 – 3 spd – 4×4 works good – Clutch, transmission & brakes good. It hasn’t been abused or rusted out & I haven’t found any bondo repairs.
I have another project and need room in my garage. My loss – your gain. This is probably the best buy for the money in Oklahoma City. I might consider a pick-up as a trade, but nothing needing paint or repairs. I don’t need another project. Tom … 405-722-0818 or Cell: 405-606-9515.”

Gerald sent me a pic of the Jeep Truck Rod below.  After some searching, I found some others.   There’s a great thread with various Jeep Rod photos as well, one of which I show below.  I suspect this is the first of several Jeep Rods Posts as I suspect other pics will pop up based on the few searches I did this evening.

Given this isn’t complete, it’s priced a bit high.  If it really was a Navy Dept vehicle, it makes me wonder if this was packaged as a M-606?

In other news, IH8MUD purchased Rockcrawler.com in October. IH8MUD, led by Brian “Woody” Swearingen, plans to take over the site, as well as related domain names, content and Service Marks and move forward with new ideas, a new layout and plenty of new information and content.

Well, what do you know … URLFAN is currently ranking eWillys in the top 10% of all websites at #398129.  Given the demographic size of people interested in flat fender jeeps, that’s a pretty great ranking in my mind, even if I don’t think the ranking means anything.

Reader Builds: Phil shares some pics of his CJ-3A

I received an email from Phil last night with pics of this beautiful flattie attached.  The jeep is a 1952 CJ-3A with a 4.3l Chevy Vortex with a C4 Auto and Dana 20 with a Terra Low gear set.

It also has a 44 frt and a 9″ Rear with ARB’s.  I’m sure with that drive train he has all that he needs to explore the areas near his northwest home.

In the last two pics you’ll note the custom tranny/tc cross member.  Phil built this and has added a skid plate that extends from the engine back past the transfer case.  Thanks for sharing Phil!

As mentioned in the post above, I found Mike’s website related to the sale of his CJ-6 and trailer.  He documented both the updates he made to his jeep and updates done to the trailer.  He’s implemented a number of creative ideas to support the modern family’s use of a trailer.  I highly recommend browsing the website for ideas.

That’s one dirty windshield!  The jeep looks rust free on the outside. This might be a good deal if the jeep will start.

“1962 Willys CJ5, been parked under a shed for 10 years. When parked was in running condition, motor and transmission are both original. Have title. A second 1962 Willys CJ5 is also incuded, it is in pieces and was being used for parts, all parts are still with jeep. Great for someone looking for a restoration project.”
