“Fantastic 1955 Jeep – Runs Smooth and Drives.
This is a fantastic Jeep. Engine is the original and preferred 226-L6 Super Hurricane flat 6 and was just gone through by an experienced classic car guy. Partial restoration is done. Body is fantastic and rust free. Starts easy, runs great and fun to drive. This is a vintage 1955 Jeep Wagon, America’s first 4×4 SUV. It will climb 57 degree grades (although I have not tried) and brings smiles everywhere it goes. Ready for the new owner to recover the seats and side panels in desired color. This is a GOOD ONE – Body not rusted. Work done in 2013/2014 includes: New fuel pump and lines, New fuel tank, Professionally overhauled Carb, New water pump and hoses, conversion from 6v to 12v with new Willys alternator and battery, and much more. Fun to tinker and will be an easy restoration finish as show car or daily driver. This vehicle is complete; original seats (front and rear) acquired and ready for cover. All parts ever needed in future are easily available from Willys – easy to work on. If you are interested is a unique, fun vintage Jeep, please email.”

“1960 Willy’s Jeep Wagon Overland
6 cyl “Super Hurricane” engine
3 speed manual transmission
4X4

I am listing this for a neighbor who has owned it the past 5 years. The Jeep was repainted in 1997 and it appears that there were panels cut out and replaced back then. It was obviously professionally done and the paint still shines nice today. It is starting to show its age. There is minor rust starting to show on the insides of doors.
It has had a lot of new parts put on it over the last 5 years he has had it. Recently, a new clutch, carb rebuild, and new exhaust from the manifold back. The 6 volt system is still intact.
The Jeep comes with the original owner’s manual, spare tire and jack.
It starts right up and runs like it should. It does have an oil leak or two but the engine is completely as it was in 1960. All the glass is excellent. The original radio even worked until last year. The Jeep was originally purchased new in Missouri and this makes him the 3rd owner of it. The rig is very roadworthy (he takes it to car shows 50 miles away), however he recommends trailering it long distances.
I will handle all offers, emails, phone calls, etc. and will do my best to answer any questions. He works away from home and I can be around anytime to show the Willy’s. ”
