UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $800.
(11/26/2011) There looks like some value here.
” I have a 1956 Willys Jeep CJ5 for sale. I’ve only had this Jeep for less than two months. I don’t know anything about it, except that it sat in the backyard of an Ivins resident for over 25 years unmoved, and unstarted. It was exposed to the elements, so it’s got a lot of surface rust, but it’s not horrible. The seats are there, but they would all need to be completely rebuilt/upholstered. The engine runs, but keep in mind that it sat for a long time……so I don’t know what kind of shape it’s in. I only ran it for about 30 seconds the whole time I’ve had it.
It has WWII era FORD GPW axles under it. These are rare, and are worth about $400+ from what I can gather by the questions I posted on an internet forum about GPW’s. Here is the post I made with detailed pictures. http://www.g503.com/forums/viewtopic.php?f=5&t=192566
It’s also got a Koenig PTO winch. These are worth around $400+ in working condition, and cleaned up. http://classicbroncos.com/forums/showthread.php?t=164754
Here is a video I shot today of the jeep. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_qXHJdh7TaQ and here is from about a month ago when I started the engine for the first time in 25+years http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BQpg3fj6LSU
Ivins is about an hour and a half north of North Las Vegas on I15. It’s just past St. George.
