“Good condition for a1951. Will consider all offers. Just had complete tune up. Runs good!!.”
This is listed as a 1944, but is more likely a CJ.
http://www.sellajeep.com/mjs/sale20/adm219/adm219.html
“It has been stationary for 20 years. Must go. Good for parts. Front Tow attached. In Central California, Los Alamos – 1 mile off Hwy 101. Come get it!!”
Seller is keeping the body and VIN and selling the rest (mostly sounds like the power train and chassis).
https://www.facebook.com/marketplace/item/657991271571370/
“I’m selling everything but the cab/tub and everything in it. I will be keeping the VIN and title. May also keep the radiator. I’d like to sell the frame, rolling on axles with the engine, transmission, and transfer case as one complete unit. It’s a 1953 CJ3A with a V6 swap. Not sure if it’s an odd fire or not. I drove it to where it’s been parked for about a year. I believe the master cylinder needs to be replaced. I’ll try to get it running for a serious buyer before I remove what I’m keeping. If you have any questions, feel free to ask. $1000 OBO”
UPDATE: Price dropped to $1500.
The ad is titled “1951 CJ-3B”. The lift strategy on the stand-alone chassis is unusual.

“1953 Willy’s CJ3A Flat Fender Jeep. Runs great. Licensed, insured and very drivable. Has a soft top, bikini top. A bunch of new parts. More new parts come with it. Has a little Buick 198ci. V6. Stock running gear. Drivers side knuckle rebuilt. I have the stuff to do the passenger side. I have a period correct heater that can be installed. P.S. It has a new battery and MSD coil and an Edelbrock carb with an electric choke. Comes with back seat, just not installed. We get compliments everywhere we go. Come check it out. It’s in Ellensburg, Washington.”
Looks in very good shape. The hood is likely aftermarket as it lacks the Willys stamps.

“1952 willy nice”
Unclear how much value is here, but it looks like the body has been rebuilt.
https://lakecity.craigslist.org/cto/d/dunedin-1950-willys-jeep-project/7220624892.html
“Selling or will trade for motorcycle or jet ski. Built in my garage in Colorado. Moved to Florida and do not have a garage to reassemble and finish. 350 Chevy small block 4 bolt main. Lots of metal restoration, front fenders and grill are perfect. New frame rails, floor pans, leaf springs, shackles, Rancho 5000 shocks. Original 3 speed manual transmission, replaced input shaft to adapt to Chevy bell housing, needs steering and pedals. Have all original parts.”
UPDATE: Price dropped to $800.
(10/19/2020) A couple things with the seller’s notes. I agree this appears to be a CJ-3A, but the Dana 44 was introduced in late 1950 to the CJ-3A (not 1952).
https://victoriatx.craigslist.org/pts/d/victoria-willys-jeep/7220220622.html
“Was converted to chevy V8 and front saginaw manual steering (excellent upgrade if you’ve ever driven a stock one). Has 16” wheels and one of them appears to be original (date stamped 1953 military) it will need a replacement engine as the v8 block in it is apart and no good any longer. Jeep is rusty, modified, old and in need of extensive repair and restoration but is mostly all there. I do have the front fenders, they were only taken off to pull the engine out but I have lost interest and have too many other projects to finish first.
The firewall was butchered when the engine conversion was made but wouldn’t be too difficult to patch and repair with sheet metal and a little effort. Asking $1200, it has no title and I am not sure what year or model it is, my best guess 1953. It has the dana44 rear axle (means it is at least a 1952 and they quit building the low hood in 1953 and the gear ratio is 5.38:1 like most of them were throughout the years. It rolls easy but should be trailered because of age.”
Has a least a few mods.

Seller’s title labels this a 1945, but it looks more like a 3A to me.
