1960 CJ-5 Minnetrista, MN eBay

• CATEGORIES: CJ5 • TAGS: , , This site contains affiliate links for which I may be compensated.

Buz spotted this one.  It is a no-reserve auction on a beautiful, stock CJ-5.  You’ll want to look at the pics of this one.  Compare the picture of it to the brochure below in the next post, too.

“Selling for my computer inept friend.  This 1960 Willys Jeep CJ5 is in Beautiful Original Condition, probably the nicest original CJ5 in existence.  Totally Original Paint, Upholstery, Engine, Miles, Everything is ORIGINAL. 21055 miles. Clear Title.  Original Spare Tire is not shown in the pictures but is included in the sale.  The tires are believed to be the originals and are in good shape with normal wear and no weather checking.  The Jeep has been stored in a carefully climate controlled building and has seen just enough use in the last many years to keep everything functional and working well.  The Jeep starts easily, runs perfectly, goes down the road as it should, and it needs nothing.  The Hardtop appears to have never been removed since new.  All fluids are fresh and the battery is new.  Look closely at the pictures, they tell the story about this vehicle better than words, more detailed pictures are available if you request them via email.  The Jeep shows very minimal use and wear with no damage or repairs.  All sheet metal is in oustanding condition and the only corrosion is very minimal, located near the tailights on both sides, the pictures show this clearly. Floor pans, fenders, quarter panels hood, undercarriage, were undercoated early in this CJ’s life and have been remarkably preserved.  There are no hidden problems, repairs, or any funny business … This jeep is the real thing, a near museum quality original, unmolested survivor.”

Letter about Woodie Tops by Station Wagons, Inc

• CATEGORIES: Advertising & Brochures, Features, Magazine, Wood bodies • TAGS: , , This site contains affiliate links for which I may be compensated.

UPDATE: **SOLD** Was on eBay

Here’s a rare letter that advertises woodie kits from Station Wagons, Inc, for CJ-2A and MB/GPW models.  This 2 page letter shows both a full and a half cab.  Below the two page letter is an example of an ad that appeared in Popular Mechanics.

Popular Mechanics Ad from the January 1948 issue of Popular Mechanics, pg 266.  This ad appeared in the February 1948 issue as well. I haven’t done a full accounting to determine how many other issues had the ad.

Hardtop Milton-Freewater, Or $700

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

UPDATE:  Still Available

(03/16/2012) This looks in pretty good shape.

“I have this great old Hardtop from an early low-hood willys CJ/ MB. Doors, Windshield, and top all in good condition, but will need restoration. Some glass is broken, but easy to replace as it is flat. I had it on my 47 CJ-2A, but have decided to go w/ a soft top only from now on. I never use my Jeep in the winter! This is an insulated top. Check out the pics, and give me a call. I will answer any questions I can. I will consider trades…bikes, guns, tools, guy stuff. (509)876-2354.”

1956 CJ-5 Winchester, Id **SOLD**

• CATEGORIES: CJ5 • TAGS: , This site contains affiliate links for which I may be compensated.

UPDATE:  **SOLD** Was $2500.

(04/24/2012) I like the vintage look of ‘Wirick’s’.  Given it doesn’t runs, the price is a bit high.

“Selling my 1956? Willys jeep. MUST SELL!
Asking $2500/obo. Very little rust.
Easiest to come look at it. It hasn’t ran for a while…don’t think it would take much to get it running.
Great project!”
