Wagon & Wagoneer Wanted for Concourse Delegance in Plymouth, MI

May 8, 2016 • CATEGORIES: Event, Features, wanted This site contains affiliate links for which I may be compensated.

Bill Norris was contacted by the St Johns (formerly the Meadowbrook) Concourse Delegance in Plymouth, MI to see if he could find them a late 50s early 60s Willys wagon (preferably a Maverick) and an early 60s Wagoneer for a special SUV display they are putting on this year. I have nothing to do with the show, but some how they got my name. Anyway, the vehicles must be really well preserved originals or very accurate restorations. No customs wheels, paint etc. They want them to look as much like factory as possible.

This is a very prestigious show. Its not your local cruise in type thing. Many high end, high dollar cars from collectors all over the world participate in this event.

Anyone interested can contact Bill at billnorris5189@gmail.com? You must be willing to transport the vehicle to and from the show. It takes place the last weekend of July 29, 30 and 31. They need an answer by 5/13 so they can be included in the show’s program.

Year? GPW Denver, CO $2300

May 8, 2016 • CATEGORIES: GPW (Ford MB) This site contains affiliate links for which I may be compensated.

Seller is listing this as a MB/CJ2. However, it looks like this has a GPW body and some military running gear.

“This is a 1948 Jeep/Willys MB/CJ2. As a WWII jeep, at the end of the war these were sold to civilians as a CJ2. As is common in these years, this one has MB parts (military) and CJ2 parts (civilian) as they used all the parts to put these in production. This has the L134 flathead-Go Devil-engine. The engine runs! You can hear it run when you come look at it. I had inquiries so I checked; I drove this jeep. It appears the tranny, etc is fine. I drove it around, however, it has no brakes (brake cylinder is dry). Floorboards are solid. No rust through.

This would be a good project. That was my intention, but other projects took priority. The body has bondo covering it. The “patches” (seen in the photos) are places where the thick bondo has flaked off. The metal underneath is in pretty good shape.

This has a working PTO winch, 4 hi, 4 low, etc. It’s a project, but it has good potential. Two extra military seats and gas tank go with it (not sure what they’re from). Engine has been converted to 12 volt system.”

1946 CJ-2A Phoenix, AZ SOLD

May 8, 2016 • CATEGORIES: CJ-2A This site contains affiliate links for which I may be compensated.

UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $1500.

The body looks in good shape.

“Project that never quite got done… Zero-time engine but has been sitting for over 10 years and has never been started. Suspect good condition. Fresh ground cam and crank, milled block and head surfaces, new bearing/seals/oil pump, 0.060-over cylinders, new pistons/rings, valve job, etc. Have all engine appliances (external oil ‘filter’, airbox, generator/regulator, skid plates, carb). Carb and distributor would need attention. 6V system. Believe all body/chassis parts are there. Previous owner stated rebuilt tranny and transfer case. Based on his character this is likely true but not confirmed. Rolling chassis with eng/tran/case and axles installed. Sand-blasted and painted frame, new shackles, brake lines, bolts, bearings, brakes, aftermarket shocks, u-joints, pretty much most of the chassis consumables replaced. Body fundamentally rough but spent quite a bit of time with heat and hammer repairing holes and making panels straight. Body would be functional and visually appealing, but never show product. Body is not bolted to chassis. Original 16″ wheels with dead tires. Clear title in my name. Cannot be driven or towed, would need to be trailered.”

1950 Wagon El Serano, CA $6000

May 8, 2016 • CATEGORIES: Willys Wagons This site contains affiliate links for which I may be compensated.

This had a coil fire at some point.

“I’m selling my 1950 Willy’s Overland Wagon. The car is complete and all original. Original flat 6 engine, trans, drive shaft, rear end and suspension. The interior is also all original and painted red like the outside. We are currently using the Wagon as storage so the inside is full of junk. Sorry, no pictures of the inside. It has 72243 miles on the odometer. I used to drive the Wagon around all the time before I parked it about 4 years ago. I used to attend many car shows and it always attracted attention.

The only reason I stopped driving the Wagon was because the coil caught on fire about 4 years ago. After that I parked it and it’s been sitting around. This is an easy fix. That is the only issue with the car. I plan on getting the car running soon, but I have way too many project and I must let some of them go”

1957 CJ-5 Concord, NH $2000

May 7, 2016 • CATEGORIES: CJ5 This site contains affiliate links for which I may be compensated.

This may be worth a look.

“1957 Willy’s Jeep
*No title because of age*
Manual – 3 on the tree
Engine – AMC V8, most likely 327ci
Bought this Jeep with the intent of working on it and restoring it. I’ve had it almost a year and haven’t touched it and it’s taking up space. The transmission makes some noise in first, but reverse, second, and third are all good. The V8 under the hood runs strong and has a lot of pick up to it. Headlights and taillights work. I also have the complete hard top for it along with doors. Hardtop and doors are in great condition with only a little surface rust. As for the tub, it has some holes in the floors and could use some work. Tires and rims are in good condition. Front bumper is beefed up and could easily hold a plow. Seats have minor tears in them, nothing major. Windshield would need to be replaced if the goal is to drive this on the street, has some pretty big cracks on the passenger side.”
