“Original Military contract CJ-3B for parts or restoration. Engine runs strong. Tranny and transfer both good. Front dash and fenders good to restore. Grill is nice also. Rest of body shot. Axles are good. Good candidate for a drop on repro body.

Original Military data tags are still there.

As seen in pics the hood denotes it was used by the town of Ellenburg NY at some point. Likely for plowing. I picked this jeep up along with a few others from an estate in Shelton CT. My focus is on WW2 jeeps and not later models. I will also be listed a 56 CJ5 separately.

Asking price on this 3b reflects the known good F Head engine, tranny, axles, etc. Data tags are pretty cool. Would make a great Vietnam War era build.”

“Note: This Jeep does not have a title.  It will be sold with a bill of sale only based on engine number – MD 65930.  Don’t read any further if you can’t deal with buying it on a bill of sale only.  Getting a title is possible through a title company or through the DMV in your state once you purchase it depending on the laws in your state.

Offered for sale is a one-of-a-kind clone of the infamous Willys 1950 X-98 prototype.  This type jeep was never mass produced as it was a transitional jeep Willys proposed in1950 with new hood lines to accommodate the overhead valve F-Head engine.  Only a handful of originals were built with no known survivors.  This project was completed in 2023 and was recently featured in the Fall 2023 edition of “The Dispatcher” Magazine.  I built this jeep based on the work of Bob Westerman who also recreated this missing link in early jeep evolution – our two are the only two working models known to exist today.
