1979 CJ-5 Silver Anniversary Athena, AL **SOLD**

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

UPDATE: **SOLD** Was on eBay.

Maury spotted this silver anniversary CJ-5.

“1979 Jeep CJ-5 SA: This extremely rare Jeep is an incredible investment opportunity. In the second half of 1979 Jeep built less than 1000 of the CJ 5 Silver Anniversary editions. There are an estimated 40 still in existence today with any chance of being restored. Less than 10 with the original motor and transmission and no rust! That makes this one of only 10 left in the world. I encourage you to do some research yourself into the collectibility of this rare vehicle. They will only go up in value!

It is “Car Show Clean” and ready to drive across country. Just add gas and enjoy. With 54,000 original miles this Jeep does well on the road, never sees mud and drives like a dream. It was garage kept for most of its life and only driven around town. The original front seats were replaced with aftermarket along with the steering wheel and shift knob. The original Silver Anniversary emblem is still on the glove compartment door and the VIN can be verified.”

1967 Jeepster Commando Round Lake, IL eBay

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

Glenn shared this rare half-cabbed Jeepster Commando.

“This Willys Jeepster is the 4X4 short bed clad in red and white. It has a Meyers 6′ plow – we bought it for plowing smaller areas. Seats presentable with brown leatherette. Body has some rust out – front and rear quarters and other areas. Previous owner was a mechanic who replaced original engine with a GM V6 and claimed engine was rebuilt. Jeep runs and drives. Auto transmission works and Meyers plow works good. A desirable little truck that would need panel repairs or drive as is.”

1944 GPW Salmon Creek, WA $750

Not much of the original jeep left.

“I need to get rid of my steel bodied, 1944 Ford Jeep. I originally got it as a project vehicle for rock crawling. When I bought it, it was a hunting rig. It has a Ford 289 V8, adapted to the original 3 speed transmission. There’s virtually no rust. Has stout front and rear bumpers and a tow bar. It’s a perfect vehicle to build exactly how you want it for. Very flexible on price. I am also selling a 3 speed military transmission with transfer case. Make offer(s).”

Updates Later This Morning

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

UPDATE: This was supposed to be published this morning, but I was so tired last night I screwed it up .. so here it is, delayed ….

I’ll have a few updates around 9am PST.

I was busy all day Wednesday on Patterson, then worked until midnight on Alaska Or Rust stuff, so updates will be delayed. Here are some brief updates on Wednesday’s work:

  1. I reinstalled the heater blower switch. Success! All three speeds work.
  2. I’ve half-installed the R&P dual master cylinder mount. Since I’m going to pull the engine anyway, I will wait to finish the installation until after I’ve pulled the engine. It will make doing the brake lines much much easier.
  3. I pulled the rear main on Rusty’s engine and replace the bolts for the flywheel, then reinstalled the rear main and oil pan.
  4. I figured out that Patterson was originally painted either President Red or Cherokee Orange, which looks pretty red.
