1961 ‘Maverick’ Wagon 2WD Clarksville, MD **SOLD**

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

UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $5000.

Mike shared this wagon. It needs some body work (see pic of rear wheel well), but runs and drives.

“The wagon runs great. Brakes work fine, also. This wagon is very complete and original, but it needs some attention everywhere. The drivers window is broken. There are rust issues with the floorboards and rocker panel supports. I have started replacing some of the support brackets but needs more work.

New Virginia title. I have not retitled the car in Maryland. Car is located in Maryland.”

Not much Maverick left in this updated and modified wagon.

“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.”

“1959 Jeep Willys Classic. Excellent condition. Notably mostly orig. stock condition and virtually no rust anywhere. Runs great. 3 on the tree. Gets attention and stops the crowds every time we take it out. Hardly any 50 Willys in the country still on the road or for sale, especially one this original and in this shape. Won best in show every time it was entered. Have too many toys and not enough garage space. Also selling my custom Harley and 2 pristine Mercedes convertibles if interested. If they sell then Im keeping my Willys. Price will go up as summer approaches. “

1962 Wagon Maverick? Colchester, CT **SOLD**

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

UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $1500.

Andy shared this one. It’s supposed to be a Maverick. That leads to the age old question, what is a Maverick. According to Grover’s site, the Maverick should have a serial number prefix of 58147. Some folks have argued that only the true Maverick was only made in 1959 (and was the first wagon to have a one-piece windshield).

“Willys Mavrick 4×2 Needs work, does not run has Buick V6 engine, standard on the floor. Rear quarters, door bottoms, floors, rockers were done once. Still have rear gate and glass but was converted to delivery doors only for the reason that my dad was “didn’t want to crawl over the gate to get stuff out of the back”. I have original trim to put back on it.I had big plans but life is life, sick of looking at it. Dont know miles on engine or wagon.Was my father’s and was our family car when I was a kid. If your not serious than let’s not waist each others time.”

1960 “Maverick” Wagon Melbourne Beach, FL **Status Unknown**

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

UPDATE: Was listed on eBay auction that ended 05/28 and it did not sell at that time.

Mike forwarded this ad. Seller notes the transmission is a “4 spd. semi automatic transmission” offered by Willys? Neither Mike nor I have.

“I purchased this vehicle from the original owner in Palm Beach Fla..I am the second owner,have owned it for 31 years,been mostly in storage always run and stored w/marvel mystery oil in fuel.All original including tires(special no flat tires,no dry rot cracks at all)Totally unmolested ORIGINAL.RARE 4 spd. semi automatic transmission,Maverick model.Only 2500 of this rare model originally made,and made for 2 years only.Original carpet and burlap headliner in this model only.Top speed is 78 mph hour compared to 55 mph for all other models.You will not find another one like it in original condition/almost no rust on body,undercoated from factory.Staining on paint was from wd40,oops.Runs and drives PERFECTLY.The only thing ever replaced was the radiator and water pump, just replaced last year No repairs ever,very mint and original rare model.Runs and drives perfectly.My age is why I am selling some of my vehicles, John,three 21-30 two-20 four four, for any Q’s.

1959 Maverick Wagon San Diego, CA **SOLD**

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

UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $2500.

“1959 Willys Maverick Wagon. Fairly rare 2wd Maverick wagon. Very solid and straight body which has been in the desert all it’s life. No engine but originally had the “F” head 4 cyl which was removed for a rebuild and lost but an easy engine to find if you want to go back to original. Has not been driven in over 30 years. Only rust is in the front floors due to the floor mat retaining moisture but other than that you will have a hard time finding a more solid wagon than this one. Interior is shot due from being exposed to the desert sun over the years. Has the straight axle/ leaf springs up front so if you wanted to convert it to 4wd it would be easy. It will make a great restoration, rat rod or custom project. $2500 Don’t contact helping to sell it- not interested. It’s a project and will need to be towed. Call and leave your # if your interested and I’ll return your call as soon as I can.”

No pics provided.

“This vehicle is a Willys Maverick. It is ranked as a very rare find. This is a,restorable vehicle that is complete. Items that are missing. headliner, one rear interior panel, it has 3 original rims no caps, have 64 chevy straight six not the original Kaiser 6 and not installed, missing side moldings, only has original front seat frame.
The Willys Maverick was originally produced through the sponsorship of the Maverick western comedy tv show. It was produced with a different windshield, one piece instead of two, different side moldings, and a upgraded suspension that was later used in the rebranded 64 jeep wagoneer. This vehicle is described as “very rare”.
This is a very restorable vehicle with quite a story. I hate to part with it , but maybe someone else can find the time to breathe life into this unique vehicle. ”

Paul Berry let me know that this beautiful Maverick is for sale.

He and his family have enjoyed it for several years. Located here in Sonoma County, CA. It was featured in the Norris-Banonis Jeep Classics calendar. It has been on display at the Willys America Open House show in July. And as you might imagine, the owner has more invested in it than his asking price of $20-K.
