UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $3200.

(11/20/2014) It’s a project.

“Rolling CJ-3B chassis with Chevrolet 4.3L V6, rebuilt Borg-Warner T90 transmission and Model 18 transfer case included. Desert veteran needs your attention to get back on the trail. Project started with new lift kit and fresh tires.”

UPDATE:Price dropped to $1300.

(12/01/2015) It’s a project or parts jeep.

“Bought the Jeep about 6 months ago wanting a new project and I just don’t have time for it. The frame is straight and solid with minor surface rust, the drivetrain is complete. Hurricane 4 cyl (does not rotate), Dana 44 offset rear, Dana 18 transfer case and and the Dana 25 (maybe 27?) front axle, all original. The tub is more or less shot, I was planning to chop it up and make it into a hot rod of sorts but a full restoration would almost certainly require a new tub. The Jeep comes with a good amount of extra parts I had collected to begin the project. The jeep has NO TITLE, the vin plate on the hood is long gone and these things didn’t have the vin stamped anywhere else, but that being the case, once you’ve built it as you desire the DMV can come out and look it over for any vin numbers to ensure it isn’t stolen and then issue a new vin for you to title it under.

Extra parts:
-Dana 20 transfer case in excellent condition
-Dana 44 narrow-track rear from a CJ-5, centered housing, in great shape, unsure of gear ratio.
-Matched pair of narrow-track axles, AMC 20 rear and Dana 30 front from a CJ-5, complete with brakes and steering linkage. Great shape, unsure of ratio.
-GM SM465 4 speed transmission, could use a rebuild but would need to have the mainshaft swapped to mate to the Dana 20 anyway, so a rebuild should be done in the process.
-NP205 transfer case that came with the transmission when I picked it up, not appropriate for this build, but it’s yours if you want it.
– CJ5 Frame that needs to be straightened”

UPDATE: Was $3950. **SOLD**

(12/06/2014) It might be worth a look.

“My ’54 is numbers-matching and pretty much all original from stem to stern. It has 66764 miles and has spent all it’s life in Montana and Oregon. It has been driven a mere 1800 miles since 1993. It is equipped with a Koenig Model 330 all-steel cab and Koenig PTO King Winch Model 151J (the PTO is not connected for some reason). And it has a HEATER!!

The engine runs well. 6V battery is new. Clutch, exhaust, shocks, tires, and brakes have low miles on them– however due to lack of use the brakes need some attention. I added fluid and replaced both front brake hoses– and then the weather hit and I set the project aside. Lights also want a little help. Gauges mostly work. One broken piece of (flat) cab glass left-rear.

The Jeep was originally red. At some point it was re-painted red by hand and has great patina. Yes, there is rust– but I’m going to call it ‘average’. Oregon title is clean.
I can send pix– but come take a look! I’m just west of Pilot Butte….”

UPDATE: Was $1900. **SOLD**

(09/10/2014) Runs and drives.

“Selling my 1953 Willy’s Jeep, its a CJ3B first year of the high hood model. This jeep starts right up, drives all day, its not a corvette but it will climb over one! It does have the original motor and transmission, transfer case, most of the wiring is original. This jeep is more than 60 years old so it does need some TLC, it needs brake line and/or the brake master cylinder fixed and a couple of the gauges (which are all original) also need some attention, needs new windshield wipers (front glass is near perfect) and driver side mirror. There is very little rust and no cancer that I have found. It has two new tires on the rear and comes with a spare carburetor and a new carburetor kit for it. New battery, original oil filter etc, etc, etc.
