Overall this is a very solid and ORIGINAL Jeep that starts right up. Brakes are good, 4×4 works great, all gauges work except for the speedometer so do not know the mileage. The paint is an older repaint but in good shape with typical wear, scratches and one dent below the drivers side door.

UPDATE: Was $3700. **SOLD**

(08/23/2014) Looks like a solid 3B. Nice vintage hardtop.

“Runs well, engine in great condition, hard top. Parked in the barn.

Many photos: https://www.dropbox.com/sh/tivhecdzz684xx2/AADh6MGuOAYf1HBDFKZ7vVYVa
I’ve owned this jeep for three years, purchased from a filmmaker/collector here locally who has several willys. I’m not sure how long he had it prior, but I got the distinct impression he’s committed to these vehicles. He has specific shops in Treadwell and Morris that he trusts to work on these (Morris is an hour away from here, which says something.)

I could not speak with certainty on the engine being original– I do know he had it machined and tuned just prior to my acquisition. The carb was also rebuilt.

The brakes seem to be in good condition. The top is in good condition minus a couple chips in the rim. All glass is in good condition (the side windows do not roll down). There is no handle on the passenger door.

The floor pans had been repaired in the past– plates added– they’re adequate but it could be prettier. There are a few rust holes. The toolbox is pretty rusty and has a few holes.

The frame looks good.
It has most certainly been repainted– I couldn’t say what the original color was.
New battery this spring. The wiring needs the turn signals and brake lights sorted out.
Runs very well and strong. Front wheel 4WD locks move well without a tool.

I deregistered it last year as I was fundamentally using it on the farm (to move firewood, and rarely) and didn’t want to pay insurance. I have the papers for easy transfer.

Quite simply, this jeep has gotten little use since I got it– housed in the barn, battery changed, rewiring started, oil changed. I’d keep it if we didn’t need to cover some unexpected expenses.”

1954 CJ-3B Defiance, OH SOLD

December 4, 2014 • CATEGORIES: CJ-3B • TAGS: Nice, Stock. This site contains affiliate links for which I may be compensated.

UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $8500.

“This is a 1954 Jeep Willys with all original parts and equipment.

It starts and drives good, and the 4×4, four wheel drive works good. It takes a lot to get it stuck. It has a hard top that can be removed. It has a strong running Continental engine. It even has a snow plow that was mounted on the front if you want to play with it.

The plow is raised by an electric winch. This has been kept as mainly a “toy to play with”
This is a CJ 2 or CJ 3 I think grandad said. It is one of the original Jeeps before they became the “wrangler””

Clean title but havent been able to locate it just yet. Hoping to find it today. Unsure of year model. Had to put one down to post listing so 1950 is a guess. Was unaware of the location of the vin# when pics were taken but will add info as soon as possible. Has been sitting for about 9 years but was running when it was parked. Tires are inflated now and seem to be holding air. Top (soft) is not in good condition. Seat covers appear to be original and are in very good shape. There is part of a seam that needs to be restitched. Email questions or text for a callback. Thanks!”

“Willy CJ3B Vin 454GB236847 Asking price $17,000.00
Engine original 4cycle “F” head
The ultimate 1950’s adventure package with all the vintage aftermarket additions; Sears aluminum cab, Braden power take-off winch with half inch cable, Warren hubs, 2nd gas tank under the passengers seat, and block heater. Includes a Bantam Trailer Corp. munitions type trailer, originally designed with the same wheels and rims to pair with the CJ. This trailer has a fabricated aluminum covered top. There are a total of 8 original rims with vintage bias-ply tube tires in great condition. Other additions include removable rear seat, handy man jack, CB radio set (with 12 to 6 volt converter), spotlight, conventional AM radio, vintage metal ice chest, and 7 vintage metal jerry cans. The vehicle spent more than fifty of it’s years living in the comfort of a garage. The upholstery is in great shape but the foam liner on the inside of cab has deteriorated.
The engine was rebuilt in 1963 by a precision motor shop in Denver where it had the crankshaft plated in hard chrome, all the moving parts were matched and balanced. In 1979 both the front and rear axles were fitted with positraction differentials. The original spider gear parts are still in good shape and included with jeep. A full set of chains is also included. The performance of The Little Red Jeep with positraction and chains in difficult situations is very impressive.”

UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $9500

Looks solid.

“1958 CJ-3B. Body tub is in great shape – it appears that a previous owner pulled the tub and replaced floor pans and so tub and frame are in great shape. Paint is ok but not perfect (crack in paint on left quarter panel and nickel sized paint flake on right quarter panel, various other nicks). I replaced transmission with new one ordered from Kaiser Willys. I also added new Warn premium locker hubs, did substantial brake work (two drums, shoes, a wheel cylinder, etc) and rebuilt steering arm. I believe motor to be original and it starts right off and runs great. My mechanic looked at clutch when we replaced transmission and he said it looks quite new. Mileage could not be verified by prior owner, so no guess as to accuracy. Horn is missing as is emergency brake cable and handle (drum and shoes appear to be in good shape).”

“You’re looking at a really nice Willys Jeep CJ3B. The jeep is in overall great shape. It has the 3-speed transmission with hi-lo shifter as well as 2wd-4wd shifter. Runs & drives good. Clutch is good. Shifts properly and stays in gear. 4-wheel drive works as it should. Brakes all gone through, body and frame in excellent condition, new gas tank, new seat cushions & covers, newer battery, suspension gone through, and a fresh coat of paint. A couple of the gauges aren’t working, but otherwise everything works as it should. The body doesn’t look the greatest (lots of dents and dings), but it is rust free and painted. New floor pans, body mounts etc., were installed before the paint job. The frame is also remarkably rust free. Tires are like new. Hope to get all the fluids and gear lubes changed in the coming weeks, but if I don’t, I’ll include all the gear lube I bought for it. Also comes with a box full of spare parts and a spare tire/wheel that hasn’t been restored yet.”

The Hudson Steering upgrade sure was popular in Colorado. Great looking 3B.

“I am selling my 1960 CJ3B jeep which I bought from the original owner about 20 years ago. Jeep is all original except it has hudson steering added which makes the jeep steer like power steering. Original F-head engine and running gear with 5:38 gear ratio. It has a aftermarket carburetor but I do have the original. It also has a koenig PTO winch and Hella driving lights. Jeep was painted about 15 years ago to its original red color and still looks great as I store it inside. Wheels,windshield frame,gear shift covers, etc. have been powder coated. Also included are 4 studded tire chains and a bikini top. I hate to sell my jeep but just do not use it anymore. These CJ3B’s are highly sought after and getting hard to find. No low ballers or dealers. Thank You”
