Some Jeep Slides on eBay

December 2, 2023 • CATEGORIES: CJ5, DJ-3A, FC150-FC170-M677, Features, Fire/Police/Industry Vehicles • TAGS: Tour-Jeep.

Here are some slides with jeeps currently for sale on eBay. The first one is an unusual tour jeep that I hadn’t seen previously. It’s somewhere at least semi-tropical, based on the upper right tree.

1. Here’s an FC-170 setup as a tour jeep. It appears to include a bed-extension on the back.

2. This slide shows a yellow CJ-5 and a ticket office at Harney Peak Black Hills SD:

3. This next two slides share images from 1962 of a Maine Forest Service MB. This is slide one:

4. This is slide two:
5. And, finally, this slide shows a rare yellow DJ-3A used by the Sault Ste. Marie Chamber of Commerce. I don’t have many vintage photos showing a DJ-3A in the original yellow color (though they do appear on several brochures).

1957 DJ-3A Desert Hot Springs, CA $1600

November 19, 2023 • CATEGORIES: DJ-3A

Seller wants it gone. If truly a 1957, then it is a standard DJ-3A, as the Gala/Surrey weren’t introduced until 1959.

https://www.facebook.com/marketplace/item/259283013730991/

“Dropping the price! Want it gone, have to pick up another car and need room on my trailer. Correction 1957 Jeep dj3a.(gala )(surrey) (Not 1946 Jeep cj2). Update 10/28/23 dmv paperwork is being processed and new vin being issued. Just waiting for verification by chp. Model is dj3a and 1957 year of production. These jeeps were also called the surrey model which were used at hotels and resorts. Ive added some pictures of what restored ones can look like. Good project for rat rod, hot rod, restoration or something unique. What you see is what you get. Has a 327 chevy motor but I don’t know if it runs. My uncle had it for several years before he passed away. Selling only no trades. Selling with Bill of sale.$1600 obo. This jeep is 2wd.”

1965 DJ-3A? Hastings, MN $3250

October 19, 2023 • CATEGORIES: DJ-3A

Unclear how much value is here, but this may be a modified 1965 DJ-3A. The rear tank, grille, and lack of WILLYS on the hood are a few clues.

1965 Flattie Lake Odessa, MI No Price

August 16, 2023 • CATEGORIES: CJ-3A, DJ-3A

Sounds like seller would prefer to trade. It appears to be 2WD. I see no reason to think this was a DJ-3A at some point, but I’ll add it to that category anyway.

Several folks forwarded this one. Interesting that this has a top with side windows. It just further demonstrates that the CJ-5 and DJ-3A versions of this top were interchangeable.

Year? DJ-3A Elko, NV Make Offer

June 20, 2023 • CATEGORIES: DJ-3A

This looks to be a DJ-3A body that originally had the open sides, but someone filled them in. The body looks to be on a 4WD chassis, but I can’t make out what chassis that is.

Year? DJ-3A Owensboro, KY No Price

May 23, 2023 • CATEGORIES: CJ-2A, DJ-3A

This has no title. Given the radiator and the transmission crossmember mount (just visible in one pic), this is likely a DJ-3A convertible body on a CJ-2A chassis.
