UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $4200.

Besides missing the rear of the jeep, it doesn’t have ww2 axles. So, I would suggest looking this over carefully.

“1944 GPW military flat fender Jeep – 5 new all directional tires (military stock) – runs perfect – 12 volt conversion – clean title and current registration –

PS: This is cash and carry ONLY – don’t bother me with the BS stories of being away, or being on an off-shore rig, or having your “agent” be in touch – I will not reply and simply forward your email to the scam and phishing folks at craigslist and local law enforcement.”

Bob forwarded this unusual CJ-5. I think calling this a custom CJ-5 is an understatement. The price is surprising.

1946 CJ-2A Point Roberts, Wa **SOLD**

UPDATE:  **SOLD** Was $1800.

“Selling my 1946 Jeep Willys CJ2A. Just bought it 4 months ago but now i moved to Seattle for work. All original running gear, stamped engine block, stamped hood, holds fluids, clear title. It has 2 rust spots that are not too bad at drain holes next to wheel wells as well as standard surface rust. Not running at the moment but all i need to do is pull the starter and clean the brushes then she will be running. Original owner had it on farm for hunting and stored in barn, sold to previous owner who’s wife had a child and had no time to fix it anymore (Held on to for 6 months), now i have it and cant keep it :(. I can have this delivered as far as Bellingham. Will sell for $1800 cash. I can arrange with my father if you would like to see the Jeep as it is being stored at their home.

The odd looking fender pieces are actually just steel that are welded to the front bumper and silicone on top of the originals. The original seats are taken out and the gas tank relocated and replaced with a 25 gallon aluminum tank. The last quark is that the tailgate is welded up to accommodate for the gas tank. This is a project car and would be great for anyone. Please contact me if you are interested. ”

UPDATE: Price dropped to $2000. This was last listed in 2011.

(09/01/2011) Is it just me or does the rear wheel well combined with the hood make it look MLWish?  It’s likely all custom though.

“1955 Willy Jeep for sale. Runs and has a clean title. Needs work”

UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $2000.

(08/15/2012) Take a close look at the pics of this. It’s unusual.  I like the body work on the hood which more tightly fits the old mb/gpw grille.  It appears to be a CJ-3B body.  I’ll bet completed this might look good.

“1948 CJ3B Custom Off Road Body(solid) Built like a tank!!The back corner of the frame is bad but can be welded. The rest of the frame is fine. 255 Buick V-6 Motor. Runs and drives. Been sitting for 2 years but all body work is done. Just needs paint. I hate to part with it. No time to fix it. Needs to be put back together. $3000 or trade o/b/o.”

2 Modified GPWs Big Island, HI **SOLD**

UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $2000

Another couple of Hawaiian ‘boat-like’ jeeps, built to carry large loads near Kona and Captain Cook, HI. These may be the same ones listed here for $950 two years ago.

“Have a pair of jeep willys. They were made by ford, gpw, but same as jeep willys. One has a title. My plan was to restore them using, but we have no time. It will be a big project, there is plenty rust and body work will need to happen. I have loads of extra parts, leaf springs, axles, carberators, axle housing, generators, steering column, water pump, buckets of bolts, odd pieces, think even a transfer case, and maybe transmission; enough parts to fill a pickup bed. Jeeps ran when parked, stil on 6 volt system. Have been covered along with parts. Were used in Kona on a coffee farm since sold to civilian. I bought them 2 or 3 years ago. Then wife decided to have me build a home and start farming. Just no time. Would be a great project. Check out the value thes hold once restored…crazy prices. Just need to get rid of them. They are not driveable, will need trailer. I have trailer but not much available time”

1953 M-38A1 with Custom Body Parkton, AR **SOLD**

UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $5250

Eric spotted this unusually modified M-38A1 that used to be a mess. It’s a different kind of slat grille. It might be a fun ride?

“This is not a restored original. See pictures
The only salvageable parts were the chassis, the motor, (rebuilt), the steering wheel, rear ends, transmission, and speedometer.
It is registered as an antique vehicle, and is in good running condition. The mileometer reads 56,349 miles, but I cannot vouch for the accuracy. Approximately 2,000 miles have been put on since the motor was rebuilt.
The motor is an L-head Overland motor.
This is a “one of a kind” vehicle, which you must see to appreciate!!”

UPDATE: **SOLD** Was Make Offer

This is different.

“This willys jeep has an all alumium body which will never rust or corrod and since it is made out of alumium it is a lite ride. The body is on an s-10 sand blasted frame with a 96′ wheelbase. It is 2 wheel drive with a 305ci v-8 in it, it has a 30 over Big cam with a 700 R4 trany behind it. It has 13,500 miles on the engine and tranny, was never used for drag racing. It gets around 20 miles per gallon on the highway.”
