British Airborne Trailer Allentown, PA **SOLD**

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

UPDATE: **SOLD* Was $4500.

Seller notes there are only five of these trailers in the US. (Jeep not for sale)

“selling my wwii British airborne trailer(Number 1 Mark II Lightweight 10-cwt Airborne Trailer). I can deliver for extra fee, I am within 3hr to Newark NJ docks for overseas shipping.
There are only five, yes 5 of these trailers in the USA(I know all the other owners)
Trades will be considered, firearms preferred. Was restored about 4-5yrs ago, some very minor holes, I didn’t want to re skin the entire trailer taking away from its originality. Brakes not assembled due to the fact that they had a tendency to actuate while in transit, with a possibility of locking up and possibly creating a accident situation.
A great trailer to complete their british airborne impression.

**Jeep in photos NOT INCLUDED OR FOR SALE!**”

1943 GPW Wateksa, IL $11,000

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

A potential buyer was looking for some feedback on this one. I’ve sent them mine. My biggest issue was those front frame rails. they’ve been extensively patched.

“Here is a nice Jeep from World War 2. GPW engine, T90 transmission, with original front/rear axles. Nice straight body, but to be honest, unsure if original or reproduction?? All the holes on the tub have been welded up, which reproductions come un-drilled if I am correct?? Has 5 combats with new tires, tubes, and flaps. REAL NICE Jeep for the money. DoIRM, so don’t offer me anything less, as the answer is NO. Thanks and Hope you all have a Happy New Year. Have a M100 trailer for additional money if interested??
I will throw in the side/corner handles, the bumperettes, the gas carrier, spare tire carrier with spare and tire,”

1960 CJ-3B Piqua, OH $9950

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

UPDATE: Still Available.

(01/01/2017) It’s an ex Navy jeep with a data plate. The plate looks awfully new, so it might be a replacement? I’m just not a fan of the M-151 rims on jeeps.

“Selling restored Jeep CJ3B painted to look like a Navy Jeep
It has new brakes, master cyl. rebuilt, 5 new wheels and Non-directional tires, both differentials rebuilt, trans. rebuilt, engine checked for compression, new rebuilt distributor and new steering wheel.

The Jeep has a NEW body, (never been wet!) and new aftermarket wiring harness. The lettering is vinyl, will come off if you desire.

Driven only in parades since restoration, selling for health reasons. Runs and drives great!
The odometer does not read correct mileage, non-functional when I purchased the Jeep.”

Tweets @RealeWillys

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

A couple years ago I set up a twitter account, only to find out that someone named eWilly Santos. She acquired the eWillys twitter name before I did. So, I named it something slightly different.

Yesterday, I got back on to see if she still was using her account. She doesn’t, but hasn’t deleted it yet (I’ve sent her a tweet asking if I can use it). However, I also realized that folks were trying to give the site credit using @eWillys, but not knowing I didn’t have access to that account. So, I updated the name to @RealeWillys for the time being.

So, if you want to give eWillys credit on twitter, use the handle @RealeWillys

Thanks!
