“1954 Jeep CJ-3b 4 wd
Not a museum piece but a very nice CJ3b.
Solid, absolutely undamaged, rust-free frame. Rust in the body has been removed and/or treated. Everything possible original that could be repaired and saved has been. I believe in retaining every bit of original content possible.
Original engine, runs great.
Extremely original content CJ3b with high degree of original, working, parts. Still has the original tailgate chains, gauges (working), rear view mirror, seat frames (new correct, cushions), all five original rims,
radiator, engine, trans, windshield (perfect), windshield latches, vacuum wiper motor (works), parking brake system (works), dash data plate, original, working, heater.
Many new bits, all wiring replaced, electrical converted to 12 volts with new alternator,
entire brake system replaced including lines. Entire fuel system replaced from gas tank to the carburetor. New carburetor, fuel pump, lines, and tank.
You don’t have to fight all the sixty year-old rusted fasteners. I have done that. Almost every fastener has been removed, rust treated or replaced, oiled, and reinstalled.
You don’t have to treat the rust, seal the tight areas with 3m 8115, or fill all the pinholes I have done that.
Of course there is still more to do if you like wrenching your own, it’s an old Jeep.
South Carolina title in my name. Cash only, no trades.”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $6800.

“This is a 1947 Willy’s Jeep with a factory installed PTO in the back. All original parts.. It starts right up and drives like a charm. This Jeep is registered as an antique vehicle in Texas. I received this baby due to a loss of someone close.. and just having it in my possession is hard for me to handle. I don’t know much about this vehicle, but I do know that I have never seen another 1947 Will’s Jeep in the condition as this one.. I’m not needing to get rid of it I just wanted to see what other creative items are out there.. I am located in Garland, Tx but this vehicle is located in Arkansas.”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $1800.

“Rare 1971 CJ-6. 80% restored. New tie rods, complete new brake system, new gas tank, fuel lines and fuel pump, new wiring harness (when I got it , it had the original wiring with a lot of extras wiring that had been added over the years from previous owners) , 2 extras front fenders, a new transfer case rebuild kit for it’s original Dana 18 transfer case, more. I bought it because it is so rare and we wanted an older Jeep from the early 70’s. I drove it for about 6 months before starting to fix it up. I came across a CJ5 that I loved and decided to let this one go. It still needs a little work before it could be painted and it would be a heck of a jeep that many people don’t have. The V6 motor and transmission all are in good shape. All it needs is the final finishes on the wiring harness, the transfer case rebuilt, tires and paint.”

The weekend is over and Kasia has returned to her ‘peeps’ at Fema Corps. On Saturday we braved the wind and rains for a trip to Roosevelt Field Mall. We did some shopping, then saw a movie (Interstellar – both liked it), and finally returned to Sea Cliff where we spent several hours talking. It was great!
Sunday morning we drove to the Cradle of Aviation Museum in Garden City, NY. On the plus side there were some great interactive exhibits, some interesting photos and stories. and, of course, lots of airplanes. I also even found an MB that was being used as a gift-shop display prop, though the jeep looked mostly complete.
On the down side we were approached by an exuberant docent ready to share all the information he could about Charles Lindberg, the museum and more (and more and more and … well, you get the picture). And, he did have some interesting tidbits and stories, but after a while he was just too much. Several times we thanked him for his help, turned and walked away, but then the guy would follow us and start up again! Finally, we just started walking away and he gave up.
Here’s some pics from the museum starting with two more of the jeep:
