UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $6250.

(04/05/2015) Has many updates.

“You feel that… its Summer right around the corner. Tired of being left behind on the trails? Getting no looks driving around in your weak rig? Looking to make strangers come talk to you. Well, maybe the last part isn’t too go. But it happens when you are driving a rig that NO-ONE else has.

For sale is my 1953 Willys CJ3B.
Very cool “high hood” that has a lot of new and old going for it.
Sadly, I just don’t have the time to drive it anymore. The price is firm at $6k. I have far, FAR more in it, but it is time for me to move on.
The car is a solid driver, a beast off road and runs like clock-work- but I will note, it does need a new head-gasket (price is adjusted to reflect repair)
Here are the specks and pics- let me know if you are interested and we can arrange viewing / test drive / etc.
