1958 Willys Jeep CJ-6 $3,000 Manteca, CA
Now this is cool if it’s legit and I hope that it is. CJ-6, good price looks solid in most areas, has that 0-9 transition period speedo which I like, its beyond rough looking but still a cool piece.
Anyone else catch that post about this style speedo that was stolen from a USPS shipment and it was found on eBay, they are just too unique to have a near perfect one out there they really stand out amongst the crowd IMO. As far as some super rare unobtanium deal, NO, and my opinion is one of rare does not equal valuable. If anything rare stuff is a liability at times.
OK back to this rig, I could use this for a project…. But you are always better to buy the best example you can afford. It’s cool mostly due to the price point and you can do some basic clean up and probably have a nice safe, running, and driving project for under $10k. Line-X or anything can be tricky if put over rust, I doubt its physically Line-X because that stuff is the real deal. Hopefully its just the FLAPS rubber in a can that peels right off.
The half cab is also a cool feature.
