1959 Jeep CJ5 with Trencher $1,500 Salisbury, NC
This has been previously posted it started at $2500 and they have it down to $1,500. Mike is close by this one the Trenchers are pretty neat. The side augers and the sort that windrow, I must have searched enough for these I got some targeted videos of some home grown attachments to put the windrows back into the trench that were pretty ingenious how they worked.
Doing some digging Dave actually also posted this back in 2024 I thought I posted it twice, but this is the 3rd separate post, the pics back from 2024 are nicer.
Also pro tip if you click on a picture in a post I put up (except for way early ones) the name of the picture will contain TD###, that’s the appropriate post count, so for example this was TD334 for the original June 2025 posting if I reloaded the pics which I won’t will reuse the ones I have, it would be Post # 704 for me. I use a (now very large) Word Document to create the posts in this format, which have a rough running number system. That number then a “year” _ “model or description” _ “# of photos for that group”. Photos are the largest time process, I have tried and found a bunch of tricks to harvest photos quickly at times. The worst are the Auction sites they all seem to use a WEBP format that all need to be converted, but I did find a way to run a script in Photo Shop quickly to do a bulk change. At some level need a system that works for you but also one where you can find the images or know where to look. It was super easy to find Dave’s pictures and I added the better shot in the beginning.
Back to the Trencher, at this price point it would probably be over at my building it’s a neat piece!
