Willys Jeep on Farm as Tractor & Plow Video

• CATEGORIES: Features, videos This site contains affiliate links for which I may be compensated.

UPDATE: This video was shared in September of 2018. An oldie, but a goodie.

I saw this video for the first time yesterday. Near the end of it there are several jeeps featured doing non-farm chores. I’ve taken a few screen shots of them and added them below. The most interesting one to me is the red one with the extended rear (pic with guys carrying the washing machine).

We’ve run across these extended rears like this on a few jeeps over the years, but this is the earliest evidence of them that I have seen. The one on the back of the red jeep looks like to me like it was professionally made, leading me to wonder if it was a purchasable product.

It does not have power steering but it’s so small it’s not very hard to turn you just have to get used to being on the right side. This one is in fantastic condition for what it is and it is easy to see project ideas from it or keep it original which is just as nice. All lights work and I bought it from a mailman who bought it from the us mail system.”

Michael has this DJ-5 for sale. He used it on a USPS route, but no longer needs it anymore.

“Hard to find nowadays a right hand drive Postal Jeep. Running like a top. It has a very nice light bar on the back. I completely redid the brakes, (calipers and lines), new water pump including the housing, new battery, new alternator, and new 3 point seatbelts. I had been using this to deliver mail for over two years and now I don’t need it. Very reliable and collectable. It has an inline 6 cylinder motor with 3 speed automatic transmission. Would make a good farm-buggy, grocery-getter or could still deliver the mail.”

Nate built this custom-purpose CJ-5 from parts.

“This 1966 cj5 came to me in very rough condition. No engine or transmission. The tub was falling off and the windshield glass fell out on the way home because the windshield frame was all rotted out. I pieces it together from parts I could find cheaply and it turned out to be a really tight Jeep now. Still a work in progress with more modifications to come.”

Several folks forwarded this Surrey. This Surrey was in Riverside, then was in Florida, but now is in Texas. It’s undergone a restoration in the last few years, but Colin indicates it was never a resort vehicle (despite the decals). Those style of decals were actually on a Surrey model jeep:

“Welcome to Street Dreams in Texas as we celebrate our 23rd year in the classic and muscle car business. We are always happy to present you with another dreamy classic jeep. This 1961 Willys Surrey Gala is a special production vehicle for Caribbean Palace Nassau. It has a 133ci Inline four cylinder engine with a manual 3-speed transmission. This classic has been well taken care of through the years. It is a very rare vehicle. It has a great look that will last until the color pink goes out of style. Which we don’t see ever happening. This thing turns everyone’s heads when you drive it around. This is a perfect vehicle for taking passengers on trips under 55mph. We sold one locally already, and they use it for wine tours”
