1953 Jeep Willys CJ3B $6500 Ridgeland, SC

Not going to see one of these everyday, the body lines look like someone put some effort and time into this one, I’ve seen a couple photos of a Willys cab on but not this exact configuration. Its not perfect and not priced or displayed as such, will need some clean up and some panels looked at, but again as I say often worth a look if you are in the market and local to this one to take a look. Plus has room here to make it your own.

CJ3B Tops Seattle WA. Pickup only

TJ sent over these CJ-3B Tops

UPDATE 4-26-25

I emailed TJ and he says they are still avaliable,  see update below………..

Both tops are in need of work. The Sears’s top is decent but one of it corners got a little buggered during one of our moves. I think it’s fixable, but will require some work.

“Andy’s Picks”

CJ3B, project for sure. Again short cut for those in the know.

This posting has been deleted by its author.

The value here is probably in the sum of the parts.

SBC with center dump manifolds sure makes it easier for the exhaust.

Can really see why the louvers are needed in the hood, luckily this is probably underpowered for a V8 swap looks fairly basic.

Has the start of power brakes which something better then stock 9″ will be needed for sure.

Husky Overdrive

Has some neat accessories.

Here is a breakout for folks who may not be 100% familiar with all these parts or what’s going on here.

On a standard no accessories Transfer Case there is a small tin cover on the drivers side, pop that off and this allows for some neat options, and in this case multiple options.

One thing needed is to count the teeth on the gear under that cover, early ones are 26 tooth (26T) later are 29 tooth (29T). So not all parts are equal, buyer beware.

The emergency brake is also off the back of the TC where the rear drive shaft comes out. Fairly standard stuff there.

The SBC will also have a special bell housing adapter and the front bearing retainer on the transmission will be special for a SBC conversion, so you will want to grab all those stuff when your picking SBC adapters, would require a long input shaft as well vs the short 4cyl one. (None of this is shown here)

So as much of a project this one is, there is alot going on to pay attention to, and it could all be in very poor shape, but it looks fairly complete.

This 3B has a rare Parkette fiberglass body. There may be 10-20 of these bodies around.

“1953 Willy’s CJ3B. Jeep was completely rebuilt in 2016. All running gear is replaced or rebuilt. The engine, trans, and running gear have 17,048 miles. That’s around 2000 miles per year. Jeep is loud and quick with tons of power. I have it geared for driving around town and running errands. The jeep has never been off road or wheeled.

The body of the Jeep is an extremely rare Parkette Body. A small amount of these were made in the 70s. They are light and known for their toughness. Seats in the tub are moved back 4” to accommodate a taller driver. I am 6’4” and fit great with the CJ5 tilt wheel.

Mechanically the Jeep is perfect. Cosmetically its not perfect, but gets thumbs up and smiles wherever I drive it. Could use a paint refresh and tub lining, but I personally like it with some character.

This looks in good shape. Given how dry it is here, I suspect the metal under that diamond plate is in good condition (if it was added after the red paint).

Not much a of a true classic, as it is assembled from various parts and customized. But, still may be worth a look if you don’t mind a custom rig.

The chassis has front frame horns, so this might not be a CJ-3B chassis.

“Sadly due to financial woes I have to part with my Willy’s Jeep project. I have been saving it to restore and sell to raise money for a camp for troubled youth, but I just don’t have anymore personal resources to support this mission. Strong engine and transmission. It was running and driving around the block up here last year, but I recommend a mechanic tune it up before trying to move it any distance. I had all new brake lines installed. I have several boxes of parts as I was in the middle of upgrading the 6volt system to 12volts and changing out the lights to support that system. Also comes with a brand new radiator ready to be installed. Located in Conifer 80433. I DO have the title for this one. I also have a 1953 Dodge M37 from the Caribou Ranch recording studio available. Priced to move both of these so I can move on with my life. Call or text with questions! 3oh3838NineThousand.”
