One of our reader’s thinks this might be 1 of 89 produced according to the early CJ-5 Page based on these links (1) Production numbers http://www.earlycj5.com/technical/engines/ (2) If the Dauntless is stock it would be a 67 http://www.earlycj5.com/technical/engines/

Here’s what appears to be a good price on a running, low mileage CJ-5 with a plow.  I’m not sure how it got so much rust if it was garaged for 44 years.

“1963 Willy’s Jeep with plow, 29,540 miles, Garaged for 44 Years! Complete and Original Engine
Convertible Top and Doors, Body sturdy (good amount of rust), Engine Runs Terrific! Still plowing snow (original plow) and tugging out trees! Happy to provide more information”

Jim provided a link to this jeep.  This is an unusual CJ-5 due to the very low mileage (14,736) and vintage accessories.  I love the old top.

“This is a classic all original 1960 Willys CJ5, garage kept with 14,736 miles, one owner. It is in very good condition with original orange paint and factory plough attachment. It has never been restored but it doesn’t need it. It includes the original soft top, owner’s manual, service manual, and the original receipt (from 1959). Flaws: Rodent chewed a single small hole in the top, approximately 1.5″ in diameter. Seats each have a single crack down the middle of the backrest. Ding on left rear corner. Crack in passenger door plastic window. All of the above are repairable. Other than that, it is in excellent shape. It starts, runs, and drives flawlessly. The original suspension is in good working order. The paint is in great shape. Buyer is responsible for shipping charges, if applicable. Please feel free to ask me any questions.”

I couldn’t resist posting this unusual and modified jeep.

“I bought an old jeep to restore but it has not happened and I have owned it for over a year. Its stock with a modified bed with safari seats. I just need it to go to a good home so make me a deal and it will be yours. I paid $500 over a year ago. I am ready to sell for scrap so come get it… make me an offer. Ask Questions and I will answer what I can. Thanks.”

UPDATE:  this jeep sold and is on it’s way to California.

Here’s an unusual find.  A garage kept, completely original Tuxedo Park CJ-5 with only 67,500 original miles.  It’s been garaged in Montana since new, garaged in Washington the last four years and serviced every year.

This project includes a new fiberglass body and fenders.  It also, to my surprise, has some desert dogs with decent tread.  It looks like a lot of work has already been done.

“Mechanical work complete. Finish the body and drive! Mint frame and suspension. Brand new Rancho 2.5″ Lift Kit with Shocks. All new wheel cylinders and master cylinder. All new brakes. Motor mounts and body mounts new. New lock-outs. New universal joints. New fiberglass body & fenders. Tow bar, top, seats, doors. 134F Head, 3 speed with lo range and hi range. Needs paint & assembly, but it’s all there if you want to put together and drive. Could use new windshield frame. Call Gene @ 440-554-2935.”

“1955 Willy’s Jeep CJ5First production year of the CJ5, It’s a pretty rare find It doesn’t presently have a radiator and there is something wrong with the brakes but it has a tow bar that I myself used to bring it home.

This appears to be a nice looking CJ-5 at a surprisingly low price given it’s a dealership.

Old Allstate locking hubs, aluminum wheels, rear seat, extra set of half doors, Body is in good shape, Great old antique jeep to restore for shows or cool old trail jeep.

This seems a surprising price on a nice looking CJ-5.  The tires are a little big for my tastes, but otherwise this looks great.

“chevy v8 new dana 44 diffs mini spool in the rear. top load 4 spd. 38″ tires for sale or make take a trade or partial trade. Call or text to 1-308-289-4832. Have a title for the jeep but can’t find the vin plate.”

This has a nice looking cage, good looking diamond plating, good rims, though the tires don’t match.  It looks like a good price for a parts jeep.  Note the shackle reversal and outboarded back springs as well.   This might make a good foundation for a project.

“1968 Willys CJ 5 project. It has the body, frame, T-14 3 speed, T-18 T.C, Dana 44 “offset” rearend, Dana 30 frontend, rollcage, new motor mounts for a 4.3 V6 or SBC, shackle reversal and rear springs moved outboard, lift springs (spring under), 35″ tires (almost new but dont match) on chrome wheels, warn hubs, So…$500 FIRM for rolling jeep…. no motor OR…………………….

4.3 V6 (temp mounted in CJ) I was told that the motor was built, also has aluminum intake, roller rockers and Mallory ignition. I have Clear title. So…$500 for rolling jeep no motor or $800 with the motor. FIRM on all my prices. Moving and need the cash.  If interested e-mail me at ductapeit@yahoo.com 509-793-3692 Ken ”
