It’s priced at $6k, but the seller is willing to consider offers. Thanks to TJ for spotting it!

“Purchased in 1978 from the Phillipines, this stainless steeel kit has never been used. I am guessing it is from around 1944 but buyer is to verify if that is important to you. Purchase does not include any type of title or other paperwork. This vehicle has never been registered.

It is in excellent vintage condition. Please consider all photographs as part of the condition. The body has some small scratches that could be buffed out.

Home of the “Original Sheepherder’s Bread”, Erick Schat’s Bakkery (not a misspelling) in Bishop, California (not too far from the eastern entrance of Yosemite National Park) has a beautiful wagon parked out front.

This photo is a stock photo from the internet, so there are some lines and “A”s across it. I cleared some off, but some remain.

1956 CJ-5 Ad

December 12, 2018 • CATEGORIES: Advertising & Brochures, Features This site contains affiliate links for which I may be compensated.

UPDATE: I mistakenly listed this as a 1954 ad. It am told it was actually a 1956 ad.

Andy spotted and bought this 1956 CJ-5 ad on eBay. The jeep has an odd look about it. I think it’s the 1) skinny fenders, 2) thinner than normal hood and 3) odd grille. It makes it feel a little bit like some kind of CJ-4 (though the actual CJ-4 has flattish fenders). The headlights on the grille in the ad look more like 7″ headlights on an MB grille.

The Ad:

For comparison, a 1955 CJ-5:

1957 CJ-5 Largo, FL SOLD

December 12, 2018 • CATEGORIES: CJ-3B This site contains affiliate links for which I may be compensated.

UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $499.

Not sure how much value is here.

“no title.
Rolling Chasis – no motor or trans, or transfer case.

It has both front and rear diffs. No Windshield. Solid frame, rusty body , but I think savable.

I bought this and want to make something cool out of it, but recognize I won’t have time to get to it for at least a year and I am paying $40 per month in storage fees. So it is with a heavy heart that I put it for sale at a reasonable price hoping someone else has the time to do this rig some justice.

Price JUST reduced to only $499 – not one penny less! Located in the Largo Florida area.”

It will go just about anywhere. 12 forward speeds and 4 in reverse (high and low range plus Warn Overdrive. 7 new tires (6.00 x 16 military) all worn parts replaced. It does leak a bit of oil (I’ve never seen a Jeep that didn’t) I have many spare parts and accessories that will go with the Jeep if sold at full price.
