(03/24/2015) Runs and drives.
“I BOUGHT THIS WILLYS A FEW MONTHS AGO AS A PROJECT. MY JOB HAS CHANGED NOW I AM ON THE ROAD ALL THE TIME. THE JEEP RUNS DRIVES AND LOOKS GOOD IT NEEDS TO BE DRIVEN AS IS OR RESTORED TO ITS GLORY DAYS. I AM JUST LOOKING TO GET WHAT I PAID FOR IT 4000.00. ”

1958 CJ-5 Mt. Pleasant, PA **SOLD**
UPDATE: Was $1200.
Runs. No title. Appears to have parts value. Looks like an f-head to me.

1960 Wagon Linn, KS **SOLD**
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $2000.
Runs, but needs some bodywork.
“1960 Willys Wagon, with the original 6 cylinder and 3 speed transmission, and solid axle four wheel drive. The brakes have been re-done, and a new battery installed. The old Willys runs good, and goes down the road good. The Willys still has the original seats. The previous owner repaired the floorboards and the rust above the right side rear wheel well. I added a photo of the left rear wheel well, which is the only rust spot on the Willys Wagon.”
1942 MB Fredericksburg, TX $5000
Runs.
“1942 willys jeep for sale. Runs and drives great. 4×4 works good. Original engine and tranny. Everything works great. Lots of original parts and some extra stuff added to it.”
Year? CJ-3A Gardendale, AL **SOLD**
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $550.
Seems like a good price.
“This would be a good project or parts vehicle.”
4 Combat Rims Waynesville, OH $400
Top rims pictured need a closer examination.
“I have 4 WWII combat wheels for a Willy MB and Ford GPW. In the first picture, the bottom two rims look goo. The top let rim has a very small amount of metal eroded away around the valve stem hole. The top right rim has holes (you can stick your fingers through) around the valve stem area (shaded area in picture)”
1946? CJ-2A Lima-Findlay, OH **SOLD**
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $1500.
Looks to have value. No title.
I have an old Willy’s jeep CJ2A I need to sell. Been in a barn over 20 years till the barn blew down. It does not run and cannot find title but it is a solid jeep for its age.”
