1984 CJ-8 Alaskan Postal Cincinnati, OH **SOLD**

• CATEGORIES: Other 4x4s This site contains affiliate links for which I may be compensated.

UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $9500.

These are rare jeeps.

“For sale. 1984 AMC Jeep CJ8 Alaskan postal version (right hand drive!!!). It has an inline 258 6-cylinder and is an automatic (very rare for older jeeps) 4×4. Floor shift with floor-mounted, hand-operated emergency brake. It fires right up, does run smoothly and drive, but needs some TLC. The left front fender is dented; there is some rust in the right side front rocker; and the driver’s (right side) floor pan will need replacing. It also slips a little in second. No rust in tub, wheel wells or reinforced frame. Still has AMC/Jeep mud flaps attached.

Here in the U.S., the Cj-8 Scrambler was marketed mainly as workman like pickup. The Alaskan postal service ordered 230 Cj-8s equipped with the world cab , side opening “barn door” and insulating foam sprayed in the entire cargo area to ensure the mail indeed did get delivered. This jeep is still 85% USPS complete and would make a great candidate for a full postal restoration. You can see where the old USPS stripes and logos were, as well as the USPS unit number on the front windshield and back door. Even has the original postal herringbone cloth seat! 132,000 original miles. Don’t miss this rare opportunity to own this rare RHD model of an already rare Jeep!”

“1963 Volvo L3304
Vehicles Specifications
Stock #: 008Z
Year: 1963
Make: Volvo
Model: L3304
Vin Number: 8Z
Int. Color: Green
Ext. Color: Green
Transmission: Manual
Description:
Here is a 1963 Volvo L3304 that was built with the familiar 4 cylinder B18 engine which is found in Volvo car models such as the PV 544, Amazon (122S) and the 144 series throughout the 1960’s. Its rugged cast iron block, 5 main bearing crankshafts proved indestructible and would run forever. This “Fast Attack” anti tank Light Reconnaissance vehicle served many functions including some applications requiring the mounting of a Bofors 90mm Anti-tank cannon capable of delivering an 8 pound projectile over 800 yards. This rare Swedish military vehicle is equipped with switchable 4X4 and low and high gearing. This early Volvo can bring any mans military fantasy come to life, while having the reliability of old school Volvo engineering.”

Seth forwarded this unusual vehicle. There’s more about it on Bring-a-trailer. The current bid is $22,511!

“This is a rare Ferves Ranger, a derivative of Fiat company, has a 500cc Fiat engine and drive components.
Between 1966 to 1971 There were only approx. 600 of this made, only about 50 known to be found, and only about 8 to 10 in the U.S.
This one is in excellent running condition, and drive fantastic.

1982 AMC Eagle Sundancer Riverdale, IL **SOLD**

• CATEGORIES: Other 4x4s This site contains affiliate links for which I may be compensated.

UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $1250

Dan shared this rare 4×4 Eagle Sundancer from AMC. The seller will sell whole or in parts. Here’s more about them from Jalopnik.

“PARTS: 1982 AMC Eagle Sundancer for parts B3242 – 004 – (Riverdale)
This is an ULTRA uncommon, some would say rare, vehicle. My research discovered that probably just under 200 models were built (about one or two conversions a week) between 1981-82 on both the Concord and Eagle models. We would love to sell this entire vehicle to a collector or restoration person, but alas if necessary we will parts this vehicle out. Engine runs, we started the car, but seriously it is a straight 6 (4.0L) engine, they really don’t fail.

Briggs-Stratton Jeep Virden, IL $4200

• CATEGORIES: Other 4x4s This site contains affiliate links for which I may be compensated.

For the price, a person can get a real jeep.

“Selling a custom built Willys Jeep look a like. Whole body was handmade, narrowed Jeep grille, frame is a 1962 military Mule. 4 wheel steer, hydro stat drive, forward/reverse, 16hp Briggs V twin engine, runs good and fires right up, has a choke ran into the cab, 12v system, working headlights and tail lights and siren. Has misc ammo cans, boxes, shovel, extinguisher, etc. Pretty cool little rig. Add a mirror, blinkers and triangle and drive it around. It’s not fast by any means(around 10mph) but very unique, well built, not a hack job. Perfect for parades, tooling around the campsite, whatever. This does not have a title, it’s a homebuilt unit.

It does have a small hydraulic leak underneath the body under the driver seat. Just don’t have the time to fix it. Could just be a fitting or seal. It fires right up and runs great, just drips oil a bit. No trades, cash only. $4200. Located south of Springfield IL in Virden.”

“Possibly one of the rarest Jeep CJ5 of the 70s
Although I have slightly modified the seat and put a different set of wheels I have not seen another one like it.
A total blast to drive! This Jeep was born as an airport tug or as a special vehicle that was used to pull and park airplanes in the 70s
This belonged to a small airport for commercial flights around the Inland Empire county
This is the only one known to make it out of there alive
I believe the airport commissioned Jeep to make 4 Jeep TUGS to be built
3 of them were dismantlement once the airport was closed down.

Odd Vehicle Santa Margarita, CA **SOLD**

• CATEGORIES: Other 4x4s This site contains affiliate links for which I may be compensated.

UPDATE:  **SOLD** Was $5900. Still not sure what it is.

“We are not quite sure what to call this vehicle. It probably started out as a Willys Americar, then was transformed into it’s present shape by a Cal Poly welding professor (or so the story goes). It has a 4-cylinder flathead engine that turns freely and a stick shift transmission. Notice the custom dash in the pics. There is a small trunk with a spare on the back. Still has the black license plates, so we can assume that it was driven on the highway at some point in it’s life. Would make a real cool run-about or ranch vehicle. Has the original hubcaps. Will need lots of TLC to get it back on the road, but what a hoot – friends will love it. We are certain that it is the only one of it’s kind in the world. I am William of bidslo.com and you can find all sorts of other fantastical vehicles on our website. Have a great day.”
