1973 CJ-6 Wilton, NY **SOLD**

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

UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $2500

This runs most days, but does need some things fixed. The top looks in great shape,

“Looking to sell my 1973 CJ-6. Like the CJ5, but 20” inches longer for more capacity/capability. Has 304 AMC V8, runs. 3 speed on floor. Dana 44 rear. Motorcraft 2bbl Carb was rebuilt and vehicle started/ran reliably before it was put in storage 10 years ago. Steel doors and hard top in good condition for age with minimal rust. Brand new Rancho stock height leaf springs on all 4 corners. 4 corner man-power drum brakes, and power by armstrong steering. This Jeep is a survivor. The body is straight and worth repairing/repainting/restoring. No title, and i have no plans to get one, i will, however, write a bill of sale. NH title will work if you want to make this truck road legal. Make no mistake, this is a PROJECT Vehicle. I am asking $2,500 to get what i have in it, although i am willing to negotiate a little, but please, no offensive offers! they only made 50k of these from 1955 to 1975, and 95% have been scrapped or wrecked. Very few remain. The Gipper had one as his ranch jeep. Search these jeeps on the interwebs and see what people are doing to them to make them cool, capable offroaders. I also know what they are worth, both unrestored and restored. I am just out of ambition with 10 other projects looming…This could be your next project!

Needs the following: Distributor acts up, sometimes it allows the truck to run, other times it doesn’t, easy fix im sure. Transfer case stuck in 4HI. Needs miscellaneous body mounts and perhaps some hat channels (typical for these CJ’s). Needs tires and wheels, but if you are building a custom jeep, this is the least of your concern. Im sure there are other things i am forgetting.

1947 CJ-2A Washington State eBay

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

UPDATE:  This is back on eBay

(11/14/2012) This looks nice. It has a clever spare tire holder that uses part of the PTO bar. It’s worth a look.  The  custom undercarriage is lower than usual.

” 1947 Willys CJ2a. This is an easy driver for anyone. It was built for my mother to drive around. It has all the great Willys jeep modifications including:
Saginaw power steering
Buick 231 V6
Dana 44 rear, Dana 27 front, 3:73 gears.
Turbo 350 automatic transmission with single stick Dana 20 transfer-case.
Adjustable front bucket seats (Drivers side has the wheel-well “notched” for more adjustment room- I am almost 6’3″ and can drive this comfortably.
Vent in windshield frame that can be opened for air flow (See pics)
Dome lights wired in hard top
M38 Military lightweight Arctic Top.
Swing out spare tire (see pics)
Two “stock style” gas tanks on passenger and drivers sides.
Near NEW tires

This Jeep was never used off the road. It will get around town and fly down the freeway just fine. This is a really snappy rig and will take off at the drop of hat. It gets lots of looks going down the road. The only trouble is the gas gauge which needs worked on and a small chip in the windshield which has a “glass sticker” on it to keep it from spreading. Please ask any questions. I am selling this in cooperation with my father.

The work was completed about 10 years ago on the jeep. It has always been garaged and rarely driven in the rain. It was a spring and summertime driver.
Alas, it’s top will keep you warm and dry (has heater and defroster). In heavy water (such as during washing or heavy rain) some water will gather in the front floor boards. We always just put a towel down there when washing. Someone could easily track the source of the water getting in, we just never did as it was a nice day driver.”

1963 CJ-3B Staunton, VA **SOLD**

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

UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $2250

(03/11/2012) “For sale: 1963 CJ3b
This CJ is among the last of the Willys branded ever made. There has been 3 owners in its lifetime. The Jeep was redone in the early 80s by the second owner. I got this Jeep 6 years ago.
This is a project.
I am roughly 60-70% done with it. I rebuilt the engine, transmission, transfer case, both differentials, upgraded the brakes (everything new), painted the frame with rust inhibiting paint, and a few other thing here and there.

What need to be done to finish this project is to finish installing some of the drive-line components, steering parts would need to be replaced ($15 for a tie rod end), cooling system installed, some bodywork, and the electrical system.

The body is rough, however replacement bodies are available. the hardtop is solid and all glass is in good shape.

I have almost everything one would need to finish this project, and all will go with.

This CJ is a rare find. It would be a perfect project for someone just getting into working on cars and trucks as a hobby, or someone who would lake to make it into an off road toy (as I was doing) This Jeep has a clear title and would be easy to get it back on the road. Parts new and used for these Jeeps are readily available.”

A couple of men decided to make a withdrawal from the two employees carrying the cash into VA building, knocking them down with a submachine guns.  You can read the whole story in the article below the eBay photo.
