UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $500.

(10/13/2017) Rick spotted this one. Look like there could be value here.

“1949 Jeep Willy, rough shape, body rusty, original motor but it does turn over, tires still hold air, tow bar on front bumper, nothing is froze up, have windshield, there is no title, but do have bill of sale and papers dating back to the 90’s.”

Includes a Warn OD. Front shackles reversed. Sounds like it needs an engine rebuild.

“Rebuilt trans, transfercase and Warn overdrive. Runs good but overheated it and smokes when it gets warmed up. Original eng.
2-1/2 inch springs with greasable shackles. reverse shackle kit installed for smoother ride. Asking 4,000. Make an offer.”

(04/1e/2017) Needs wiring.

“Engine fires right up and runs good. I bought a new Walcks 4WD wiring harness and wired the engine, battery, voltmeter, ignition and starter, but all the rest of the new wiring needs to be hooked up. It has been converted to a 12 volt system and a spin on oil filter. It comes with a roll bar, trailer hitch, tow bar, Bestop soft top, new turn signal switch and additional new wiring. Also included is a spare Tranny and Transfer case, plus a set of decent front fenders. I’ve invested over $5K.
I have too many home projects pending to spend any more time on this little jeep. I need to move on. It needs a garage for the winter and someone needing a project.”

UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $7800

“I’m selling my baby! This is a really nice vintage jeep that I rebuilt ground up with my Dad who is a well known roll cage and custom bumper builder. The jeep is fully functional and starts right up… great gas milage, good power for its weight and the low 5:38 gears will crawl up dam near anything! I’ve taken this jeep up Hacket Rock (Hacket Gultch) with no problem.

With a little cosmetic work, this jeep could be one of the nicest vintage jeeps around.
Heres a little more about the jeep:

– Clear title.
– Leafspring over conversion giving it added lift and flex.
– 1 inch body lift.
– Fully boxed in frame.
– Custom and nicely shaped roll cage.
– Custom front and back bumpers.
– Body floor replaced.
– Winch roll cage.
– Early 70’s Chevy Nova 4 cyl engine.
– Power steering.
– High gear, low gear, 2WD, 4WD shift options.
– Custom aluminum firewall.
– Custom center console.
– 1/4 inch real rubber liner throughout the interior floor.
– 33×9.50 tires with some good life left in them.
– Top in good shape but cracked plastic windows.
– Body is in good shape but showing some bondo cracks.
– Little to no rust.”

Seller is in Woodstock, IL, but the jeep is located in Cedarburg, WI.

“It’s a project. Engine is disassembled with what looks like fresh machine work done. Engine is bored +.30, new pistons, crank is turned as well. From what I can see the engine is all there.
