Keep a Watch in Seattle Area for This CJ-3B

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

TJ relayed this story of his missing CJ-3B.

He writes, “So I have a scam, of sorts, to post. I had a beautiful 53 3B, 90% restored. Last major piece was an overhaul. I met a mechanic: Joe Jump here in Seattle, his references checked out and he towed the Jeep to his ‘garage’. Long story short, the guy is a meth addict and convicted car thief. So he has my Jeep probably somewhere between Seattle and Portland. My wife and I have been watching craigslist religiously with no luck. He has had the Jeep since mid August.”

So, if anyone sees this jeep, please let TJ (tj_wylie@yahoo.com) or I know. Here are a couple pics of it.

Glenn’s Insurance Company Cancels Policy

• CATEGORIES: Features This site contains affiliate links for which I may be compensated.

Glenn has run into an unusual insurance issue. He writes, “I was informed today by my MAJOR Antique Auto Insurance Co. that my newly purchased CJ3B is not acceptable under my Antique Auto Policy because it has a factory installed winch along with a trailer ball. I have been with this (Unnamed right now) company for about 25 years. I have insured several Willys vehicles over the years, never with a problem until now. To quote the underwriter employee:

Glenn,
We appreciate your longevity with (hidden), but although it is a collector vehicle, given our low rates we need to be sure the vehicles we insure are not be used for work purposes, i.e. to tow or haul anything, plow anything, pull anything with a winch, etc… We insure many types of vehicles, but the usage of each vehicle is the primary concern. This is why when we see vehicles with the type of equipment that is included on this Jeep we require the items be removed.

Dan spotted this rare Traveler. It’s rough, but complete.

1961-wagon-traveler-littlerock-ar

“Willys 1961 Traveler, if you’re looking you may already know the rarity of the Willys Traveler. If you are not I would suggest a good search of the internet, try “Willys production numbers” for a start. As if it wasn’t rare enough it has all the Civilian model Traveler specific parts in tact. I have been fooling with old Willys stuff since 1972 and have never seen one with all the pieces intact. It has the factory fold up rear bench seats, it has the roof mounted spare tire carrier, it has the rear sliding side windows, it has the step plate between rear bumper and the body all still attached. These ultra rare pieces are one of the things that makes it an ideal restoration candidate. The numbers are all correct for a 1961 Traveler and it comes with a good, clean title in my name. It’s 4 wheel drive with the desirable straight “6” 226 cubic inch flathead motor. The motor spins over by hand. the transmission and transfer case are in place.
