“Fully restored. 1954 Willys Jeep. This Jeep was from Arizona so it is a survivor. With the exception of the tailgate and a few pieces in the drivers footwell, its original metal. In total there’s less than a 1/4 cup of filler and that is in the hood covering an existing weld done years ago. The body was completely stripped, sand blasted and coated with high build epoxy primer so that we could examine for rusty areas. Then coated with 3 coats of Luzon red base and 3 clearcoats. the interior is coated in color matched bed liner, as were the wheel wells. See photos of the d/s floor replacement and top hat stiffeners. The original 15” wheels were blasted and powder coated and fitted with period all terrain tires of the correct proportions.
The transmission including transfer case were rebuilt with new bearings and several “out of spec’n” shafts. A new Saturn overdrive was installed so that you can get down the road at approaching respectable speeds. Most people that pass, just give an energetic thumbs up. (we did see 60mph one time) but typically you’re rushing around at 50-55mph.
The head was removed, and valves recut. The cylinders were still within tolerance, and she exhibits no smoking and uses no oil. The pressures were all within 10% of each other. The drive train has all new CV joints, transmission brake parts and axle seals. The brake master cylinder is new as are the front slave cylinders. The backs had been replaced the year we bought her!
The color is Luzon red, a beautiful deep red that was a Willys color for the 1952 jeeps. The colors for ’54 were slightly better than boring. Just about the first thing people comment about is the color. She has a 2″dia roll bar behind the seats and is fitted with a Bestop top that is easily removed or installed for late fall or spring driving. We keep the top on but doors off and sides rolled up for sun protection.
It’s a fun Jeep, don’t expect to cover hundreds of miles of freeway driving. These post war Jeeps were almost farmers tractors. But with the huge radiator and fan, she will happily rock hop all day.
We literally have thousands of dollars of invoices for the new parts.”

“53 Willys CJ3 High Hood
Picked this up in a trade.
Looks like a old mud racer!
Old School Side by Side!
Show your friends what a real Side by Side is, put 400 HP under the hood and bolt on some paddle tires!
Has a rear tow hook to pull those $40,000 SBS out when they get stuck!
Maybe build a 2 wheel drive Straight Axle Rat Rod, 5.9 Cummins with a straight stack through the hood!
Extended Tilt Nose
Mid Engine
Looks like a 73 or newer GM Square body frame
3\4 ton Axles, dont know the gear ratio or if they are locked up
Full float 14 bolt rear axle
D44 front axle
BPO Turbo 400 trans
Dana 20 transfercase
drive lines are still in it.
Power brakes and steering
Full cage with air craft seats and lap belts
All the guages and tach are still in place
B and M ratchet shifter
Radiator and all wiring to put the engine of your choice in it like a Cadillac, Oldsmobile, Pontiac, AMC, Ford or Dodge engine you have laying around.
472 or 500 Cadiliac would be fun!
Had a 455 Buick that the previous owner kept for another project, was a running driving Jeep.
Maybe a small or big block Chevy with a adapter to the BPO T400
Currently has 12.00 x 16.5 tires will knock $450 off if you dont want them bring your wheels and tires.
Body is rough but intact would make a great Sand Dunes Jeep, Mud racer or Off road Jeep many posibilites, can have fun with this one at a fraction of the Cost of a new Side by Side and not worry about denting or scratching it, besides it will sound better!
Clear Title will need the lights wired for road use.
Selling for parts or as a project Jeep!
$1,950 as it sits
$1,500 less the16.5 tires and wheels, or the T400 Transmission and D20Transfercase
$1,000 Less the transmission, transfercase and wheels and tires, would be a fun family Jeep project. Maybe shorten the frame, add a rear fuel cell many possibilitys, It would do well in the Dunes being Mid engine be lighter on the front end.

My bottom Dollar is $1,000 Cash less the T400, Dana 20 transfercase and wheels and tires, bring your own wheels and tires. If it dont sell by the 4th of July weekend I will be parting it out! Text offers on any part and I will consider if it dont sell before then.”

Year? CJ-3B? Lovell, WY $6800

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

Listen as a 1946, this looks more like a CJ-3B. However, if you look closely under the midsection of the first photo, it appears the transmission crossmember is slightly visible. I think you only would see that if it were a 2A setup. So, my guess is this is a 3B body on a 2A chassis. Also note that it lacks front frame rails, but there has been some work of some kind on them as well.
