UPDATE: Price dropped to $1995
(10/27/2010) “Up for sale is my ’51 Willys M38. Think of it as a beefed up CJ3.
NADA Classic Car Price Guide (for the civilian version- the CJ3) lists low retail @ $4,489.
This vehicle runs and drives and I have a clear title.
Has a Ford “Pinto” 4 cylinder with good power but it needs a tuneup. Original transmission and 4X4components are in place and working and there are working manual front hubs.
THE GOOD:
– body (tub and fenders) and hat channels are very solid.
– frame is solid.
– windshield frame is original and solid but the glass is cracked.
– 4 new off road tires mounted on new wagon wheels.
– newish gas tank.
– newish muffler/tailpipe.
– brand new battery.
THE BAD:
– has a civilian CJ hood but it’s in good shape.
– hand painted
– brakes are very weak- probably needs cylinders and perhaps master cylinder rebuilt
I’ve decided to use my spare time for my boys not my toys. I don’t need to sell so PLEASE NO LOW BALL OFFERS. My price if fair.
This Jeep obviously came originally from somewhere that they don’t rust much.
Please no calls after 8PM. I will consider delivering within 50 miles of Baltimore.
