1956 CJ-5 Chino, CA **SOLD**

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

UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $2700.

(01/12/2016) This might make a good restoration. Or, just drive as is.

“Offering my 1956 Willy Jeep for sale. 11 years ago I picked up from the winery orchard and I am the second owner to restore it with many dreams but never happened. Due to my unforeseen circumstances, I have to let it go with the reasonable best offer. Staying in the garage for over 10 years, I rebuilt the carburetor, new electric fuel pump, gas hot tank, new distributor cap, plug and wires. Things need to be fixed are, part of the wiring for the head lights, brake lights, horn and minor wiring replacement on the voltage regulator and rust with hole on the passenger side panel. If the price is right I can rewire for you. Jeep runs well and you will be amazed how it drives.”

1952 M-38 San Diego, CA **SOLD**

• CATEGORIES: M-38 This site contains affiliate links for which I may be compensated.

UPDATE: **SOLD* Was $3200

Doesn’t run. Has PTO winch.

“Selling a 1952 Willys Jeep. I don’t know everything about it — haven’t heard it run in a while — but now I’d call it fair condition. Selling as is. My Father used and maintained through the years. With some light maintenance, perhaps carburetor or battery attention, I’m sure “the huntin’ Jeep” would work great. Or could be a good parts donor.

Once a very cool flat fender jeep, looks WWII style, it’s complete and was working when parked. Engine is a Chevy 350, Muncie transmission, big power driven winch, roll bar, alum mag wheels. A tow hitch was around at one time. Asking $3200.”

Our first time in Needles, California

Today we drove from Laughlin, Nevada, to Yuma, Arizona (view yesterday’s post here). We began the day brilliantly, with a trip for ‘breakfast’ to Laughlin’s In-N-Out Burger. Ann and her gluten/beef intolerance forced her to spurn a delicious cheeseburger, but she did partake of a few of my fries. I, on the other hand, was quite pleased by my breakfast.

Map of our trip from Laughlin, Nevada, to Yuma, Arizona

We drove north out of Laughlin, crossed the Colorado River, and quickly reached Bullhead City, Arizona. One of our goals was to take a photo with the city’s large tortoise. Our mission was soon accomplished.

Next, I wanted to take a few photos of the Colorado River and the casinos of Laughlin across the river. Somehow, my wife thought that meant stepping into the cold river.

1975 CJ-6 Upland, CA **SOLD**

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

UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $9500.

The body was stretched from it’s CJ-6 size, making it not so much rare as it is custom. A neat jeep though. It’s not clear to me, but I think this was a CJ-6 stretched onto a Scrambler chassis?

“One of a kind very rare. Use it like a truck or a Jeep. No smog required. Clean title, pink in hand. Professional Custom stretch CJ8 Scrambler. Factory 304 v8, t18 4 speed stick shift, model 20 t case twin stick, 4.0 low range. Dana44 rear, Detroit locker, 33 spline shafts, rear warn hubs, front Dana 30, ARB air locker, both with 4.88 gears. On board air engine driven compressor. 4″ lift kit, 33” BFG mud tires. Runs and drives excellent. Lots of power. I have full soft top and full soft doors plus half soft top and half doors. It comes with a very nice tow bar and lift jack. Lots of money invested in this jeep. Very easy to tow because all wheels unlock.

This is great jeep to own for jeep enthusiasts. My price is firm. “1975-cj6-renegade-la01 1975-cj6-renegade-la0 1975-cj6-renegade-la1 1975-cj6-renegade-la2

UPDATE: **SOLD** Was Make Offer.

Seller is a little off on the WWII history, but still there is some value here.

“4 Willys jeeps and parts for sale. The Green one is a ’59 CJ5, the engine is not installed and needs to be reassembled. The red and gray Jeeps are ’46s and both have the drive trains installed and are assembled. With very little effort, both of these could be running. The orange one is a ’48 and the engine is not installed. It needs to be assembled, but all the parts to make a running jeep are there. We also have 2 F Head engines and TONS of parts that go to the jeeps. The gray one has a clear title the other threes titles have gone missing some years ago. We are hoping to sell everything together, make us an offer. Would also consider selling individually if the offer is right. These Jeeps were originally made during WWII as military vehicles. This is a great opportunity to own and bring back to life a piece of history. More Pictures available.”
