1961 Cj5 on 2040-cars
Irvington, Alabama, United States
|
This is a 1961 Willys Kaiser CJ5, 4 cylinder with Tuxedo Park Mark III trim, it is convertible with a folding windshield and completely open body style if desired. This jeep is part time 2 wheel drive or a part time 4 wheel drive with all new seats and belts installed recently, the paint job is not original however it is extremely nice. This particular model of the CJ5 came stock with a hood and body made of heavy gauge sheet metal, a larger windshield frame, and a new passenger car type handbrake located to the left of the driver underneath the instrument panel. There is nothing on the interior or exterior of this jeep that is damaged, no rot through rust, no exterior rust on the outer surface and minimal surface rust to the chassis that is from natural aging. It has NEVER been exposed to salt water or mud and has never been driven off road, never. The tires on this jeep have some wear on them however are still worthy of quite a few miles. The speedometer was recently replaced with an exact replica due to the temperature gauge on the original speedometer malfunctioning, the original speedometer is available also if the buyer would like to have it. The maintenance of this vehicle has been remarkable considering the Jeep's age. It has truly been babied by both of it's original owners. The Jeep was bought brand new by a Korean War Veteran in 1961. It was sold to a retired individual by the original owner in 2001. I bought it from the second owner about 2 months ago. I intended to sink a few bucks into it and fully restore this jeep however it is not something I am able to do at the present time. Here's the best part about this Jeep: IT HAS ONLY 19,000 ORIGINAL MILES ON IT!!!! This baby maneuvers like you wouldn't believe! I will give the buyer the new door skins and Bimini Top. It has a soft top as well that was recently purchased and is in excellent condition. It has been garage kept and only driven in nice weather it's entire lifetime. I have driven it about 20 or so miles since I bought it. I'm willing to negotiate with anyone who is serious about taking this winner off my hands. I am moving soon and would rather for it to go to someone who will love it as much as it's been loved over the years. The title is clear. The buyer won't be disappointed! Good Luck!!!! |

Watch this Jeep Willys return to its birthplace after 70 years
Sun, 23 Jun 2013Earlier this month, a very significant Jeep was celebrated at the Toledo North Assembly plant. No, it wasn't the upcoming reincarnation of the Jeep Cherokee, but instead it was a 1943 Willys MB that visited the Toledo grounds where it had been built exactly 70 years ago to the day.
Of course, the actual building where the MBs rolled off the assembly line before heading to Europe for World War II no longer exists, but that didn't stop Italian owner Vittorio Argento from having the vehicle shipped to the US to make its trek back to its birth place. According to Chrysler, Argento's MB is still 95-percent original and it drove 1,000 miles from New Jersey to Toledo.
The whole adventure was chronicled on a blog aptly named A Jeep Comes Home. Scroll down for a brief video from Chrysler and for some photos of the Toledo visit and be sure to read more at Argento's blog.
FCA goes all-in on Jeep and Ram brands on cheap gas bet
Wed, Jan 27 2016It's no surprise that as SUV and truck sales remain strong in the wake of unusually cheap gas, Jeep and Ram sales are taking off. What is a surprise is that FCA CEO Sergio Marchionne thinks that cheap gas will be a "permanent condition," and feels strongly enough about it to change up North American manufacturing plans. Jeep appears to be the biggest beneficiary of the product realignment. In addition to increasing the sales estimates for the brand worldwide upwards to 2 million units a year by 2018, the brand will get a flood of investment for new product and powertrains. Consider the Wrangler Pickup to be part of the salvo, as well as the Grand Wagoneer three-row announced in 2014 as part of the original five-year plan. The Wrangler four-door will get at least two new powertrains, a diesel and mild hybrid version, in its next generation. That mild hybrid powertrain may utilize a 48-volt electrical system like the one that's being developed by Delphi and Bosch – which the suppliers think will be worth a 10 to 15 percent fuel economy gain at a minimum. Down the road, in the 2020s, the Wrangler could adopt a full hybrid system. The diesel powertrain is planned for 2019 or 2020. The Ram 1500 is also pegged to receive a mild hybrid system, again potentially based on 48-volt architecture, sometime after 2020. Lastly, Jeep and Ram will take over some of the production capacity of existing plants. The Sterling Heights, MI, plant that builds the Chrysler 200 will now build the Ram 1500; the Belvidere, IL, facility that produces the Dodge Dart will take over Cherokee output; the big Jeep facility in Toledo, OH, will be used for increased Wrangler demand. In 2015, according to FCA's numbers, car and van demand went down by 10 percent, but SUV demand went up 8 percent and truck demand 2 percent. Considering that these are high-margin vehicles, FCA can't ignore the math. FCA also won't build any new factories to supplement production to meet demand, but instead are reshuffling production priorities. Think of it this way: FCA is gambling on cheap gas being a permanent part of our lives, at least into the 2020s. By doubling down on SUVs and trucks, the company stands to win big, unless a spike in gas prices changes the landscape. FCA isn't talking about a Plan B, so they're all in. It'll be interesting to see how this plays out.
YouTube tallies votes for this year's top five Super Bowl spots [w/video]
Tue, 19 Feb 2013When we asked you to tell us which of this year's 16 car-themed Super Bowl commercials you liked best, you chose the Farmer commercial from Chrysler Group, advertising the Ram trucks, over Audi's Prom commercial in second place. Turns out the voters in YouTube's Ad Blitz poll agreed, voting the same commercial to the number one spot from among the field commercials in every category.
From there, however, they went in a totally different direction. Budweiser's The Clydesdales spot came second, Samsung's The Next Big Thing took third. The Jeep Whole Again ad scored fourth in the YouTube poll, fifth in our poll of auto commercials, and the Hyundai Team spot got fifth from the YouTubers, but ninth in our poll.
The voting results don't match up with the viewing numbers, though - while Farmer has more than 13 million views, The Next Big Thing is well beyond 21 million. You can read the press release below and see all five spots, lined up for you, one more time.
