1950 CJ-V35U Fredericksburg, TX $6500

• CATEGORIES: CJ-3A • TAGS: This site contains affiliate links for which I may be compensated.

UPDATE: Price dropped to $6500.

(11/06/2020) This appears to be a CJ-V35U, though it has a few mods.

https://www.facebook.com/marketplace/item/3276821425746866/

“Our research indicates that this Willys Jeep CJV35/U is one of only 1000 produced and one of perhaps 100 in existence. In 1950, the U.S. Navy contracted the construction of 1000 Jeeps with deep water fording capability and special radio equipment for forward observation duties. Serial numbers ran from 10001 to 11000, making our number 10794 a late production example. The previous owner related that it had been used as a hunting vehicle on his ranch. As such, many original parts are missing, but many remain (hood, excellent headlight bezels, tailgate, etc.). All Naval identification plaques are also present. We recently installed a battery and fuel tank (tank was not original) to get it running, but there are NO BRAKES, making this an ideal project or parts Jeep to be sold AS IS.”

Bill spotted this project or parts jeep.

https://nh.craigslist.org/cto/d/gilmanton-1952-cj3-willys-flat-fender/7235839597.html

“This CJ became more of a project than I planned. The jeep is complete, I do have the original seat frames with steel pans. The motor is stuck. I pulled the head and am soaking the cylinders with mystery oil. SO OBVIOUSLY IT DOES NOT RUN! I have new 19 guage floor panels to weld in and a brand new 12 volt battery. Was going to convert it to 12 v. The tires all have decent tread and hold air as they should. It rolls very easily to move around and load onto a trailer. These are getting as rare as hen’s teeth! If it doesn’t sell, I’ll get it running, get it roadworthy and keep it. $1,500.”

Year? DJ-3A? Sewell, NJ $2750

• CATEGORIES: CJ-2A, CJ-3A, DJ-3A This site contains affiliate links for which I may be compensated.

UPDATE: Still Available.

(07/14/2020) With 3-on-the-tree and 2WD it sounds like a DJ-3A. The solid back suggests it may have been a convertible model; yet the body has cutout in the rear wells consistent with having been mounted on an MB/GPW. Has the correct hand brake, but incorrect gauges. Has the correct front end, but incorrect rear end. Has the correct 2/3 1/3 seats for a convertible model. Has the incorrect windshield.

“I have a 1949 Willies Jeep. It’s a army Jeep. I am looking for someone that will appreciate what it represents. AMERICA. Lol. I did have a title but am unable to locate at this time. I have extra parts and the original rear. It is a 3 on the tree,2wd, single barrel straight 4. It does run and I have driven around my yard. I am looking for a person that knows what a special find this is. Trust me I don’t want to post this for sale,but I want someone who can restore it back to glory.”

Listed as a CJ-2A, it looks to be a CJ-3A that needs brakes at the very least. It likely does not have the original engine.

UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $19,000.

(08/10/2020) I you are an Eddie Arnold fan, this jeep might appeal to you. It appears to be a thorough rebuild, there have been a few updates, such as the brakes, 12 volts, radiator, and more.

Engine, Transmission, Transfer case, Front axle, Rear axle all have been rebuilt, All the rust in the body has been cut out and replaced, the body has been striped to bare metal, primed and repainted. The frame has been striped all cracks welded and some reinforcement added.

Many new parts including springs, hangers, rebuilt steering box and all the steering parts rebuilt or replaced. 11″ brakes on all four wheels, all new or rebuilt. All the gauges have been rebuilt. A brand new wiring harness has been installed and now it’s 12 volt. Turn signals have been added. The transmission has had an overdrive unit installed. The brake and clutch pedal have been rebuilt. The seats have all new springs and upholstery. This is as a brand new jeep.

“I am sad to be posting this but here it is. This is a one of a kind Hardtop Jeep Willys CJ3A. It has 18,500 original miles and the motor was rebuilt at 15,826 in 2016 ($3000 of work that I have the paperwork for).

Shocks were replaced at 15,665 miles. It is converted to 12volt. Its got brake lights and blinkers. 4×4 high and low work perfectly. The hardtop is custom fitted and fabricated, they didn’t make these with hardtops back then. This is a one of one Jeep Willys with an awesome patina, it could be sanded and panted easily but I would say don’t do it, keep that patina alive.
