Year? CJ-5 Lehi, Ut **SOLD**

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

mUPDATE: **SOLD** Was1000.

This is another find by the Utah eWillys Bureau (read Brett..) This includes a PTO (probably for a winch).  It looks pretty good for the price.  It would not take much to slip a different rear end under there and make this a driver.

I’ve had it street legal for the past couple years and almost always drove it around with the wind shield down and never gotten stopped. It runs good and 4 wheel drive works, I put a new clutch in that I would guess has less then 100 miles on it. BAD NEWS: Last year The rear differential went out and locked up the tires… so will need too be trailered home.  It will need a new ring and pinion, brand new they run around 200$ or if you find another dana 44 someplace for less you could just swap out the hole rear axle and be on your way… I’m asking 1000.00 Call or text anytime. If I don’t answer leave a message. Will consider all trades, could use camera gear or auto shop tools …”

1956 CJ-5 Ogden, Ut **SOLD**

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

UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $1700.

Brett spotted what appears to be a good deal on a CJ-5. Lots of pics provided as well.  It’s not perfect, but good for the price.  This sports the early CJ-5 reversed front springs.

“1956 Willys jeep for sale. Great little CJ 5, would make a fun project for father and son. Good hunting vehicle or summer cruiser. The jeep is far from perfect and needs some TLC. The jeep runs but needs a new battery and tires. I purchased new front and rear seats and also lined the interior. Due to the age of the jeep it does not need to pass emmissons test. I have children playing Comp soccer so that is where my time and money go…my loss is your gain. It has no hard top and comes as is….No reasonable offer will be refused.”

1962 Wagon Portland, OR **SOLD**

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

UPDATE: **SOLD** Was on eBay

This is a nice looking Wagon.  There are a few very minor issues with it.

“I bought this all original wagon in 2004 from wagonmaster.com about five years ago.  When I bought the wagon it was advertised as having a “freshly rebuilt Hurricane 6 engine” and I am the third owner.

It is a very fun and wonderful wagon.  The color combination of gold (khaki) and president red (an original Willy’s color) are a stunning combination.  I get comments on it all of the time.  The other day I drove it to work (four miles from my house) and I got two thumbs up on the freeway and a “shout out” from a young lady who professed love for my Willy’s!  This happens all of the time.

I will, occasionally, rent my cars out for advertising photo shoots.  This past fall Lands End used my wagon for the cover page of their nationally distributed Christmas catalog.  I am told Lands End received a lot of inquiries about the Willy’s itself and if it was for sale….”

1960 CJ-5 Littleton, CO **SOLD**

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

UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $1500.

This hasn’t been started in four years.

“This is a fun jeep. My father actually left it to my son 8 years ago (when he was 8) and we spent some time and money making it road worthy. We put new springs, shackles, shocks, wiring harness, carburetor, and tires back in 2003 or 2004. I drove it to and from work many times back then. It does have rust, mostly in the floor pan but there is some on the wheel wells and body also. It hasn’t been started in over 4 years so you will need to tow it away and spend a couple hours with it and it does actually have a tow bar. My son is now 16 and has no time and no desire to get it running again and make it his primary transportation. Email me and ask for more pictures, we took a couple dozen with close ups so you can see all the good and bad before driving out to SW Littleton to buy it. ”

UPDATE:  price dropped to $6000

(07/15/2010) This is one of those odd title situations — I can understand on a non op why an owner might delay getting a title, but I don’t understand it on a vehicle that is driven around …

It has been signed off and I have bill of sale from him. I will also give bill of sale. Tags good through Oct. Question? Please ask! …..
