UPDATE: Was on eBay

(12/26/09) This build looks interesting as it has some unique touches.  The top is certainly unusual and is probably a relief on hot summer days. I’d like to get some more detail pics of this one.

“This jeep has given us much fun on off-roads and hunting trips. It hasn’t been driven on the highway since we have owned it. We trailer it to and from the mountains. We purchased it from the original owner, who bought it new in 1946 and has since passed on. We have made a lot of changes since we’ve owned it. These changes include diamond plate on part of the body, and we Rhino-lined the rest of the outside body, (has a small crack in Rhino-line on hood). Includes a wider wind shield than original. (see pictures)  It has a removable vinyl top that converts easily into a bikini top. Zip-off side windows can be attached to the top. Removable vinyl covered half doors. Full front bench seat with saddle blanket seat cover and shoulder-strap  seat belts. CB Radio with antennae, cassette/radio player and speakers.  Tilt steering wheel. Oil, temp and volt gauges but no speedometer. Roll Cage. Gun rack above windshield inside holds 1 gun. Front and rear heaters. 12 Volt system with new battery. Front wiper on driver side. Auxillary front lights. Power Steering. Front-end has a little play in steering. Buick V-6 motor with electric fan and dual exhaust. 3 Speed manual transmission. M-M front outside locking hubs, hi-lo 4×4 levers inside. Front Disc Brakes. Rear Drum Brakes. Front and rear shocks. Mag Wheels with Wild Country Radials ATV 32×11.50 R15 LT Tires. Spare tire on back rack. Cooler rack on back also. Ten gallon gas tank and extra 5 gallon gas can in carrier on back.”

A great looking jeep with nice mods.

“• It is a 1948 Willys CJ3A tub on a 1972 Jeep CJ5 frame & running gear
• The motor is a Ford 302
• The transmission is a Dana T-150 3 speed
• The transfer case I believe is a Dana T-18
• The front axle is a Dana 30 or 35, I’ll have to check
• The rear axle is a Dana 44
• I think the axles have 3.73 gears, I’m not 100% sure though
• It has 15”x8” black steel wheels with 32×11.50R15 Super Swamper TSL SX tires
• It has recently new Rancho leaf springs front and rear, unknown brand shocks (I’d say it has about a 3”-4” lift)
• The inside floor and roll cage were rhino lined
• It has older Mustang front seats
• Grant GT Steering wheel
• Has original speedometer gauge, the other gauges are aftermarket (tachometer, oil press, fuel level, battery level, and water temp)
• Electric windshield wipers
• Bikini top
• No radio, no heat, no power steering, no power brakes (drum brakes all the way around)
• The engine has custom full-length headers leading into dual exhaust exiting out each side, Holley intake manifold, Edelbrock carburetor & air filter, off-line dual oil filters and an aluminum radiator
• It runs excellent but needs a few leaks fixed (where the off-line oil filters connect to the stock oil filter location on the block, at the bottom of the oil dipstick, oil pan, and the transmission (I don’t know exactly where it is leaking at the transmission))
• It needs a clutch adjustment”
