“HELLO, THIS WILLYS BEEN IN THE GARAGE SINCE THE MID 1960’S. WAS BOUGHT NEW THEN WAS USED AS A PLOW TRUCK FOR AN OLD TIME GARAGE/GAS STATION. THE TRUCK WAS THEN BOUGHT IN THE 1960’S TO BE RESTORED TO ORIGINAL CONDITIONS BUT THAT JUST NEVER HAPPENED. IT SAT INSIDE THE GARAGE EVER SINCE.
SO THE FACTS I KNOW ARE AS FOLLOWED; NO TITLE AND NO KEYS WERE FOUND IN THE HOUSE, IF EVER FOUND I WILL GLADLY MAIL THEM TO YOU. AN LOCAL MECHANIC CAME OUT TO HELP US DO A FEW THINGS TO GET THIS READY TO SELL. THE TRUCK TIRES HOLD AIR AND ROLES FREELY. THE MOTOR SPINS BY HAND BUT NEVER TRIED TO START. THE RADIATOR WAS OUT OF IT ON THE SHELF SO MY MECHANIC PUT IT BACK IN PLACE FOR THE PICTURES. THE WOOD ON THE FLOOR LOOKS TO BE IN REAL NICE SHAPE. Continue reading

1959 Maverick(?) Wagon Lakeway, TX $24,000
Not much Maverick left in this updated and modified wagon.
https://austin.craigslist.org/cto/d/austin-1959-willys-wagon-maverick/7269435754.html
“I am testing the waters to sell or trade my Willys. If sold I am asking $24K. If trade I want something equal in value or possibly cash on top.
This 1959 Willys Wagon Maverick was restored a few years back by a coffee shop in southern California. They reportedly spent $30K to get it finished. Unfortunately, that coffee shop went tits up so they sold the Willys to the guy I purchased it from. This car is a nice driver not a show car. It has power windows, power steering, A/C, Heat, CD with bluetooth. It has a chevy 350 motor with an automatic transmission. This thing gets lots of attention. It will come with the original vintage roof rack and some other odds and ends. Car is registered in TX but has a CA title in my name.”
1946 VEC? CJ-2A Benton, AR **SOLD**

1954 CJ-3B Wimberly, TX $1000

1963 DJ-3A Brook, IN $500
Maybe some parts value here, but not a whole lot.
https://tippecanoe.craigslist.org/cto/d/morocco-1963-willys-dj-jeep-4cyl-2wd/7257857539.html
“Up for sale is what’s left of my Dad’s 1963 DJ3 delivery jeep after he left it sit outside :-((
What you see is what you get, NO title. Too bad, I learned how to drive in this jeep. L134 flathead engine, column shift, two-wheel drive. Rusty & rotted. Dont know if engine still turns. This originally had the enclosed rear; what the post office used years ago before they got what they are using today. I was going to part it out but if I can offload it whole it’s just less I have to do. AS-IS as pictured!!”
1960 “Willy X Jeep” Salado, TX $16,500
Can’t say that I’ve ever heard of a “Willy X Jeep”? Looks like a plain old CJ-5 to me.
https://killeen.craigslist.org/for/d/salado-1960-willy-jeep/7266003825.html
“This is the nicest and most original 1960 Willy X Jeep you will find under $25,000. 6592 original miles. In 2012 @ 2346 miles a complete rebuild was performed on the entire vehicle, costing $11,000. ALL receipts for the rebuild on hand as well as original jeep documents. Everything on the Jeep works as it should. One light switch knob handle is broken. Little to NO rust, tires are in great condition, 4WD works as it should. It is a one of a kind Jeep. You would have to pay $25,000 to come anywhere close to the quality and collector value of this jeep. This is not a Jeep to slap big wheels on and go mudding. It’s just a pleasure to own this piece of history. I have enjoyed owning this Jeep but as with its second owner, it is hard on my back. I am the 4th owner. You could take this Jeep to a show as it is.”

Year? Spen Trailer Shelby, NC $950
Mark spotted this trailer. Has some rust, but could be worth a look.
https://charlotte.craigslist.org/tro/d/shelby-1940s-spen-willys-jeep-trailer/7268333712.html
“1940’s Spen Trailer in Good Condition. Scarce Spen trailer with even scarcer Spen hubcaps. Appears to have its original floor along with the hard to find original Spen hubcaps, 16″ rims, landing leg, and a very nice tailgate. It needs some panel and frame patches or use as is. Could be restored or use as is with the patina look. Great to pull behind a Willys CJ2A, CJ3A, Wagon or other Jeep. $950 No title. Pick up in Western NC.”
Late Model CJ-3B Body Houston, TX $500
It needs some work, but original late 3B bodies aren’t easy to find.
https://houston.craigslist.org/pts/d/stafford-body-tub-and-hood-for-cj3b/7266307155.html
“Original body tub and hood for CJ3B. Quite a bit of rust through in the floor and in overall rough condition. Great for a rebuild, hunting, or buggy project. Practice your cutting and welding skills!”

It has 2 sets of tires and wheels, new tune up parts under the seat. bucket seats are from mid 60’s GM car. Looks like it has at least 110k miles. $1750. OBO would consider quad in trade.
