Year? CJ-2A? Coos County, OR **SOLD**

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

UPDATE: *SOLD** Was $3800.

(03/23/2013) The price on this looks good. The body looks like a CJ-2A/3A rather than a ’44’. The windshield appears to be a 3A rather than a 3B.

“My wife and I are getting rid of our beloved CJ-2A Willy’s Jeep. We have had this rig for around 10 years and have done a great deal to it. It still needs some minor work as all restoration go, but baby runs good and catches the eye. We have had it in the Ocean Fest Parade many times and we take it on rides to the beach, dunes and the hills. Never hot rodded and adult owned. It has the F-134 4 cylinder, new carb, water pump, head gasket, clutch, pressure plate and throw out bearing, master cylinder, exhaust, brakes, bench seat for two extra passengers, roll bar, bikini top, spare tire, 5 gallon Jerry Gas Can, new gauges, new fuel tank, electric fuel pump, CB radio, and more stuff. The body was removed, most rust removed or treated, body was undercoated, frame was wire brushed down, treated with good quality rust kill, primed and undercoated. Paint is a Fountain Green with metal flake. several repairs on the body was done, but not perfect. We did it this way so we could use it and not just for parades or shows. We have 3 Border Collies and they love the ride. The engine is from a 50’s Willy’s. The tub is a “44” and the windshield is off a CJ 3B. Many Jeeper folks do that due to the look. We have a windshield frame that comes from the 40’s and the rig also comes with an extra Tranny with Transfer case and other extra parts that was on it originally. It also has a tow bar, magnetic lights for towing and small brush guard, mainly for the tow bar to secure it to when driving the jeep.
My wife loves “Smokey the Bear” and that’s what we put on it.

You can contact me at : willysdude47@hotmail.com When you do, put “Willy’s” in the subject box and I’ll know you’re real. Anything else will be considered spam and dumped where it belongs. Take care.”

Left it original 6volt rebuilt starter and generator, new wiring, guages work. Has rear PTO. As you see in the pictures I couldn’t bring myself to redo the tailgate perfect patina.

Hugo’s CJ-3A in Uruguay

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

Hugo lives in Uruguay and has spent four years restoring this CJ-3A (see a report from 2011 here). As you can see from the pictures, he started with a pretty rough vehicle. As the pictures demonstrate, he seems to be enjoying the results of his hard work. Thanks for sharing Hugo.

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

UPDATE:  Was priced at $6500. Status Unknown.

(05/12/2012) This looks like a very nice jeep.  Based on the location of the gas inlet in the back, I’m going to guess this started life as a DJ-3A.

UPDATE: Back on eBay

(03/05/2013) This seller is buying this along with another car and doesn’t need it. This includes a rear PTO, Drum, and Saw.

“This is a nice car, it looks great!!

The car has had a lot of work done, and it runs well. It was owned by a mechanic who was able to give it TLC. The tires are new. This is not a rust bucket. I took some a pictures up close of a surface rusted area which is minor on RH side.

The car is with a Cadillac and I have to buy the pair, I am a Caddy guy and want to move this one.

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

UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $7500.

(12/19/2012) This seems a little strange.  The seller bought this twelve years ago from someone in Arizona. It still has the Arizona title. What’s strange is that instead of new pictures, the seller appears to be showing pictures from Arizona, which I think means the pictures are twelve years old? You gotta love the tiny rope around the bumper, lol.

“1951 Willys CJ-3A Jeep Overland 4×4 Go Devil
This CJ3A has its original Go Devil engine- runs and drives great.
Never been cut or modified.
Very good original condition with cosmetic improvements and electrical upgrade to 12v.

1950 CJV-35U Fayetteville, NC **SOLD**

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

UPDATE: **SOLD** Was on eBay.

This might make a good restoration. It looks like the body has been patched a bit.

“n 1950 the USMC ordered only 1000 of these jeeps. This jeep was designed to run submerged for 15 minutes. The serial # ran from 10,000 to 11,000 and this jeep is # 410. My research has this jeep being one of only 29 ever found. The motor is original to the jeep and runs by feeding it fuel. This CJV35/U has one of only 3 original distributors left. The distributor alone has been valued at $3000.00. This jeep still has the original 6 volt generator, starter and voltage regulator. It also still has the positive ventilation valves, waterproof headlights, and the 6 volt ignition switch.  The radios are gone! The 12volt generator for the radios is gone! The hold down loops for the front and rear are still there. The hood is original and still has the 4 hood hold downs and the original USMC bumper #.”

Nate’s Dual Carb Setup

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

Nate’s simple reasoning for installing two carbs on his L-Head (I had two YF carbs and plenty of time) belies his good understanding of how why the carbs add more power (see his explanation in the thread comments). As usual, very nice work Nate!
