1950 CJ-3A Sherman, TX **SOLD**
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $1350.
(02/28/2013) This looks like a good price. It runs.
“This would make a good hunting or farm jeep. It has the flathead 4 cylinder and standard transmission. The motor and trans are both good and four wheel drive works just fine. The block has been welded on but does not leak. I have a starter that I just had rebuilt that needs put back on it. It may need a carb kit to run real good but I had it running before we took the starter off. It’s kind of just an old hunting type buggy. The seats in it are good and the inside is in reasonable shape. It does need some work on the floor pans but it’s nothing that makes it not usable. I check email daily so just reply if you have interest. I can only provide a bill of sale but it has the Willy’s ID tag on it if you want to go to the trouble of registering it. I’d also entertain using it as partial trade towards a ’09 or newer Honda Rancher, Foreman, or Rincon 4X4 with reasonable hours.”
Target Practice Jeep at Page Field in Fort Myers
Notice the track and the guide below the front of the jeep’s bumper. This photo came from Mission4Today.com
“Several students at Page Field in Fort Myers (ca 1945) with a jeep, the mechanical mule of the army that carried a target around on a circular cement track. The jeep itself was protected by a large embankment in the background. The students are over the right side of the embankment and shoot at a target.”

(09/11/2013) Brian sent this photo of the door after it was sand blasted.
(09/11/2013) Bruce forwarded this photo of the surrey without the top.
(09/10/2013) Brian’s photos of a 1961 DJ-3A Surrey:
Brian writes, “It’s not the same Jeep. My top has never had an i.d. tag on it which i always thought was odd. When i bought the top, the Jeep was only in Florida for a year or two at the time. Before that it was in Virginia where it had spent most of it’s life, the same State that the top was built in. The story was something like: a lady bought the Surrey new in ’61 and then (i think) it was sold to a serviceman around the time of Vietnam. He put the Jeep in storage and it sat there for well over 30 years, hence why it was in such good shape. I can’t remember who had the top put on it.
I found two more pics that show a bit of the pink paint, in the rear cargo area some is showing on the ribs and the front floor shot shows a line of pink around the body seam. I had underhood pics that showed alot of pink paint that the cheaper paint didn’t adhere too well to but i can’t find them.“
