1970 CJ-5 Gardiner, OR $6000

• CATEGORIES: CJ5 • TAGS: This site contains affiliate links for which I may be compensated.

Blaine shared this CJ-5, noting the hardtop looked unusual, which the rear of it does. After some research, I felt it is a Koenig Jiffy Cab 520 for the CJ-5 (see an Aug 1957 brochure here). This is the first time I’d noticed that the Jiffy Cab 520 had an unusually wide rear door with slim sides (not room for side windows in the back).

“The jeep is pretty-much untouched and original (except for the paint). Last year before AMC bought Jeep. It has the factory 3.7l Dauntless V6 motor, three-speed transmission and factory PTO winch. Split bench seat.

The motor is strong with as-new oil pressure. A prior owner put a 3.8l intake on it so it can use the Delco electronic ignition. Dual exhaust, as new. Transmission good as are the brakes. I hate antique cooling systems, so a new radiator and heater core. Headlight replacements should be in today (3rd), LEDs with glass faces.

The paint job was for protection since it came to the coast, mediocre base coat, clear coat. The hard top was bought when the Jeep was new. Neither roof or the body show rust, it came from Talent, very dry country. It has a mis-matched tire, and needs little jobs for it to be the daily driver.

This is an old Jeep, old school. No power steering, just a big steering wheel. No power brakes or cruise control. Early Jeeps are strong and reliable, but have little in common with modern Jeeps.

I am willing to consider trades, even non-vehicle, if the trade seems right, or $6k. I have varied interests.”

1945 VEC CJ-2A Rainier, OR $15,000

UPDATE: Still Available.

(04/10/2023) John shared this early CJ-2A. It’s had a few updates, but the indents and column shift are still there. There has been some body work (such as the elimination of the spare tire carrier mounting holes), along with new paint. If the underside on this is solid, it may well be worth a look at this price. I don’t impinge it would take too much to bring this back to stock.

This was listed at $4800, but that price has been crossed out. Perhaps the seller is taking offers? The front suspension setup is unusual. It appears a bump stop has been added to the rear of the springs, replacing the shackles. It also looks like some kind of block or wedge sits between the springs and the axle.

“Selling my 1946 cj2a. Hate to sell it but I got another one which is as good as I ever hoped for this one to be. It was used as a plow jeep for many years before I bought it I’ll start with the good Runs and drives very well, engine sounds amazing. The body has many patches but the floors are solid. It has a previous registration and plates but no title. Depending on when it sells I might include a spare frame for extra. The half cab is solid and are hard to come by. It comes with a complete plow setup that I know for a fact works. Cons The frame needs a patch before I’d recommend even yard driving it. One of the rear left leaf spring mounts rotted through the frame, the last owner never told me that before driving 6 hours to buy it. The brake lines are all there, unsure if theyre even hooked up, but the brakes don’t work. It’s currently hooked up to an auxiliary gas tank in the bed but I will be including a plastic one. 2700 obo, negotiable in person only, no I’m not parting it out”

I have about $12k into it and it’s still in pieces. I bought the replacement panels and $4k in parts (see lists in photos).

It has a Dana 44 rear axle, original heater, professionally rebuilt front and rear driveshafts, and quite a few spare parts including a spare transmission and transfer case. I also have a full steel hard top (no side doors) and a half cab/doors. Have clean title too. I also attached a couple photos of when it was together.

Quickly Assembled Jeep Video

• CATEGORIES: Features, videos • TAGS: This site contains affiliate links for which I may be compensated.

Bill shared this quick-assemble jeep video, though this doesn’t quite look as quick as others we’ve seen.

What’s more interesting is that one of the comments under the video shares how some US jeep dealers ran some contests challenging folks to assemble actual jeeps completely taken apart. This is the first I have heard about this type of contest. I wonder if it was ever documented in any news articles or magazines. Here is the full comment:

My grandfather’s garage did this in the 1950’s. He owned the first Jeep dealership in Manhattan, because he was selling Willy’s before WWII, so automatically became a Jeep dealership after the War. [Willys] did a promotion where they set up this contest in different dealerships, to see how long to assemble an entire Jeep. But it was completely apart, not in sub assemblies like here. My grandfather won with a time under 4 hours, and they presented him with a solid gold Bulova watch. On the back was engraved his name, the date, and the time it took to put the Jeep together.”
