This project is unusual in that the body is chromed fiberglass with rivets.

“I’m selling my project car of 15 years! I’ve misplaced my passion and ready to turn over my collector piece to someone willing and able to complete the last remaining items- if you have a garage, a few tools and a couple weekends- you can be the owner of this one of a kind Willy’s.

(07/30/2021) This may actually be a CJ-3A? The body is fiberglass.

“Collection of parts to build a 1953 Willy’s cj3b. Fiberglass tub, frame, axles. I have the transmission case but am missing internals. Complete transfer case, pto drive. Radiator, No motor.

“Beautiful 1952 willys jeep in amazing condition.
Call for more information. complete restore. Go Devil 4 cyl
disc brakes , 12 volt system, new top, a must see and drive,
more pictures available. Also interested in a trade for newer model jeep.”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $10,000.
(11/28/2021) This is part of or from an estate sale. It’s a unique build.
“Street, strip or sand, this 1952 Willys is ready to play! While the clean title, which I have in hand, says it’s a 1952 Willys, I believe only the chassis, which has been boxed, is original. Blueprinted Aluminum GM V8 406ci/7.0l block. Aluminum Dart heads. That’s hooked up to a cutch-Turbo 400 transmission with scatter shield controlled B&M Pro Ratchet automatic shifter attached to a 3/4 ton 205 transfer case. Custom built heavy duty drive shafts to professionally built 35 spline axels. Dana 60 with locker and 5.08 gears in rear and Dana 44 with 4.88 gears in front. Street tires are brand new. Sand tires and wheels are also new. Extra set of wheels included if you want to mount slicks!
The rig is up and running/stopping but should be gone through before pushing it hard. It was parked for several years in an Arizona garage. Was plated in CA. Has break lights, headlights, turn signals. It’s an estate sale. Really cool, but not my jam. Trailer with tire rack available.”
This runs. It appears to have a replacement body.

“Complete and runs. V6 buick motor.”
Seems like there’s some value here. It does look to be a CJ-3A, based on the bodies’ dash, the radiator setup, and the lack of front frame horns.

“This is either a CJ2A or a CJ3A or may be a mix. It is a project that I have stalled on…
Frame and engine are in good shape, the engine turns over, is not seized. Has new brake lines and includes a new carburetor. All Jeep parts in the photos go with it; muffler, exhaust pipe, radiator, all body parts, drive shafts, steering assembly, etc. As with most of these Jeeps, the body (tub) is fair to poor.”
Has. variety of updates. Looks in good shape.

“Excellent condition, drive anywhere..4×4 ,231 v6,auto trans,disc brake conversion on front etc…price is firm, no trades….moving and I don’t want to put it in storage..clean clear ms title”
This looks in good shape and most likely has a replacement body (not M-38).

“1951 Willys CJ-3A. M38 windshield and body. Starts right up, runs good, no mechanical issues. L134 flathead engine. Carb just rebuilt, brakes were rebuilt last year, new battery, electrical system converted to 12 volt, fluids changed regularly. Has some rust underneath but overall a solid old Jeep that just needs someone that has the time to spend taking care of a 70 year old machine. Title in hand”
This appears to have a CJ-2A chassis, but, given it lacks the 2A ignition hold in the dash, it might have a 3A body.

“It is a project, currently not running. Everything is there but needs to be restored. I have the seat frames. Also have original service manual. Have the title”

Doesn’t run.

UPDATE: **SOLD** Was Make Offer.
Doesn’t look like a whole lot of value here.
“Willys jeep tub rough nice windshield frame, trans n rearends , steering column/ frame rough. Make offers”
UPDATE: Still Available.
The headlight bezels might hit at this being a CJ-V35U, but it also is a pretty big mish-mash of parts. There must be a good story behind this creation. Unfortunately, there is no description provided.
It’s rare to see a Blue Star hardtop on a jeep for sale anymore.

“I have some old willys Jeep parts for sale. I have a tub, hood, fenders, grille, and windshield from a ‘52 Cj3a. The tub is in pretty rough condition on one side. The fenders aren’t rusty but have a couple grinder cuts in them. The grille is ok. The hood is ok. The windshield frame is pretty good. It would be good for a woods buggy or you can use the windshield frame, hood and grille for your project.
I also have a transmission, transfer case and a set of axles, Dana 25 and Dana 41 from a ‘48 cj2a. The transmission and transfer case will need rebuilding. The axles have a rare set of locking hubs on them, there were a few different types of locking hubs for these jeeps. Also comes with an old ford inline 6 engine. Needs rebuilding
$500 for all of it. Must take it all. I can help you load it onto your trailer.
The pictures are older pictures. The tub is off of the frame now.”
Looks like a fair price.

Will do/maintain 60, but not really a freeway vehicle (ideal speed range 35 to 55-loves long rural roads). In the 9 years I’ve had this, only used 4×4 for snow. no off roading/mudding. 11 inch drum brakes. Saginaw manual steering. 31×10.5×15 tires (80% tread) Hood, grill, fenders & tailgate are original.
UPDATE: Still Available.
(11/07/2021) There might be some rust on the driver’s side or just peeling paint.

“1951 Willys JeepCJ3A nearly in original condition. Original 4 cylinder engine is strong, starts easy and runs real well. Solid body. New wiring harness that includes turn signal lights has been installed. A new speedometer/odometer was installed along with a new fuel gauge. New front springs and four new shock absorbers have been installed. Lap belts added. Four wheel drive operates well. There are locking hubs. New York registration and inspection are current. Clear title. This vehicle is an eye catcher and fun to drive.”
No pics provided. I”m assuming the 10-inch wheels are the width?

“Willys CJ3A 1949, L-head, 6-volt, rusty, non-op, clear title. 10″ wheels.”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $6900.
This body has the dash ignition hole for a 2A, so likely a 2A body. But, given the updates, it doesn’t really matter much. The gas tank has been been moved to the rear.
“Great running Willys Jeep! Clean OK title. Has a 283 Chevy V8 so it’s a bit of a hot rod. Body is in good condition. Paint job is just rattle can OD green. Tires are excellent. Tight steering and good brakes with new master cylinder. All lights including turn signals are functional. Seats were recovered fairly recently and it has seat belts installed for a bit of added safety. Drivetrain is stock other than the engine, so it’s geared low, but will cruise down the country roads nicely. Also has a PTO driven winch up front. Not interested in trades. No shipping, local cash sale only.
UPDATE: Price dropped to $1500.
(12/14/2021) Unclear how much value is here.
