1973 CJ-6 Pacific Grove, CA **SOLD**

• CATEGORIES: CJ-6 This site contains affiliate links for which I may be compensated.

UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $2500.

It runs and drives, but needs brakes.

“I have a rare 1973 Jeep CJ6 that I am offering for sale. I purchased it as a project, but soon thereafter, found another Jeep that needed my funds. It is pre-smog, and has no back fees, and has never been in the DMV system. I believe the miles to be original, as this Jeep was used as a hunting vehicle on a ranch here in Ca. It has a running straight 6 engine, and a 3 speed manual transmission, with a working Dana 20 transfer case. It has a Dana 30 front and Dana 44 rear axle. Included also is a spare D20 transfer case and driveshafts from a previous build.

The Jeep starts and drives, but has NO BRAKES, and will need to be trailered or towed. It cannot be street driven at this time.”

‘Lola’ Tackles the Borders of Texas

• CATEGORIES: Advertising & Brochures, Features, Old Images, Old News Articles • TAGS: This site contains affiliate links for which I may be compensated.

This article from the June 1955 issue of Willys News shares the brief story of Frank Tolbert’s 5,000 mile trip around the state of Texas. Accompanying Frank were Frank, Jr., and a CJ-5 then named Lola.

I have found a series of articles published over successive weeks in the Dallas Morning News about their trip. However, I have to sign up and pay a fee to use it. Anyone have free access? I would like to see what the article say before having to buy anything.

1957 Wagon Fredericksburg, VA $6000

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

Runs and drives.

“1957 Willy’s wagon, 4X4, 4spd manual transmission, flat head 4 cylinder engine. Body is in great shape with no major rust issues, no holes missing parts or cheap replacement panels found. Frame is solid and straight. Interior has been completely redone about 5 years ago and looks great. New wiring harness throughout entire wagon. All glass replaced around the same time as interior. New wheel cylinders, brakes, and spring kits. Engine runs smooth with no noises. Transfer case and hubs work as they should. Trans has a bad synchro in 2nd gear, you can still drive just pops out of 2nd when you let off of the gas. Has stump pulling granny gear transfer case gearing. No noises or rattling from the rears. All around solid wagon for someone to completely restore or drive as is. Asking $6,000.00 for the Willy’s which is below collector market value for the current condition. You would be hard pressed to find a classic in as good of condition as this one for the same money! Must see in person, give me a call so we can arrange a time,”

It is missing a few parts on the dash. The seller notes this is a frame off restoration, but one of the pics shows the primer being applied with the body (and other parts) still attached to the frame. Maybe I’m just confused.

• CATEGORIES: M-38A1 This site contains affiliate links for which I may be compensated.

UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $6500.

Needs some work.

“For Sale is a 1955 Willy’s Jeep. This is a 4 cylinder vehicle and is in very good condition. Tires and batteries are new. Engine turns over but that is as far as I’ve gone trying to get it started. This is a military vehicle. 4WD manual transmission with high and low range. I obtained this jeep through a storage unit auction. The jeep is as it was when coming out of the storage unit. I would also consider trades on a variety of items but if you want to make a trade please be sure the value of your item is commensurate with the value of the jeep or you could do trade plus cash if that is not the case. I have clear paperwork in the form of a “Transferrable NYS Registration” which is all you need (along with a sales receipt from me) to register this vehicle. Give a call if your interested. No responses to this email. Call or text only. The sale price is for the jeep not having been started. Once I go through the trouble of getting it started the selling price will be raised accordingly.”
