“Willys cj3b jeep with hardtop. Motor runs well- good oil pressure needs reassembly to drive most parts are present. This was an airport tarmac truck.

I don’t need to sell it but won’t have time to get to it anytime soon. Clear title in my name with current registration. Somewhat of a rare jeep especially with the hardtop. The price is firm.will consider trade for highboy ford truck or manual transmission scout.Message me for more details or pictures .

UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $11,900.
Joe is selling his Navy themed CJ-3B. When he got it, it had the words “For official use only” faintly visible on the hood and the original color appeared to be semi-gloss grey. So, it may well have been a Navy jeep.

Used as my errand/ short excursion jeep for several years. Complete build diary and invoices. Currently equipped with Cooper Cross Country 700/16 NDT military tires. Spare included, not pictured.

The dash tags suggest this was an old club vehicle and/or possible racer. The engine may well be worth a look, as it may have been reworked for some additional power.

“This is a 1953 Jeep cj3b that my dad bought in 1961. It has been garaged all the time only driven in the summer and put up on blocks in the winter. There is no rust on the body or frame. A Warn overdrive has been added and Warn hubs. The seats have been reupulstered with new fabric and foam. The top is in good condition and nearly new. It has been converted to 12volt and the spare tire moved to the rear. The original tire mount and 6 volt parts go with it.”
I’m not sure how much value is here. This has an aftermarket body that sits on a Jeepster Commando frame.
