“I have decided to sale my Jeep I purchased with the sole purpose of running the Rubicon as it was on my bucket list. Which I did in 2016.
Below are most of the upgrades done to the Jeep to make it happen and a few pictures of the jeep on the trail. Since the Rubicon trip the jeep has pretty much sat in the garage and its time for it to make room for my next bucket list project. (Which is to rebuild my first new vehicle I purchased in 1980. A 1980 CJ7.)
Here are the stats:
1. 1953 CJ3a very little rust and surface only.
2. V6 Dauntless with distributor upgraded to electronic. The was professional rebuilt and only a few thousand on it since. Come bring a compression tester or use mine. This is a nice motor.
3. SM420 4 speed with the nice 7 to 1 granny first. Rebuilt but only had 50k on it when I purchased it. Continue reading

Not running but the previous owner said the engine is not locked up. This Jeep has a Koenig 8k winch mounted on a big back bumper that is mounted into the transfer case. The winch itself is worth about a grand. If no one buys it now, I will rebuild it and sell it finished after I finish a 67’ CJ5. Feel free to ask any questions you may have. Only Jeep related trades, and no low ball offers. Bill of sale only. Front two tires not included. I have some beater tires/wheels if you need them to haul this away.”
