1963 CJ-3B Berkshire County, Ma **SOLD**

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

UPDATE: Was on eBay. **SOLD**

Ed sent me the link to his ebay listing and I’m glad he did.  “Woodchuck” is a rare beauty!

“Purchased by Dorothy Owens for her summer camp in Wardsboro, Vermont on June 26, 1963 from Willys Jeep dealer E.J. Roberts & Son, Inc. of Jacksonville, Vermont (see sale receipt image below), this historic 1963 CJ3B is as close to true showroom original stock condition as likely almost any vintage Jeep existing. “Woodchuck”, as the 3B is now affectionately known, has been extensively documented, photographed and published (more on that below). Woodchuck, with only 9400 miles (continuously garaged since new and never driven in winter), is in its original Treebark Brown Poly paint (paint code 231) and original green upholstery (trim code 208) on the seats and tailgate chains.”

Builds: Dan updates us on his Grandfather’s Jeep

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

This is a continuing series on Dan’s efforts to rebuild his Grandfather’s jeep. Here’s the previous post. [Editor’s note – that looks like a steal at $100.  Running and complete!]

Dan writes, “Sometime in the 1960’s my grandfather’s friend purchased a new Jeep and immediately swapped out the little four banger for a V8. My grandfather bought the new (at the time) 134 F head from his friend and installed it in his own 1955 CJ5 replacing the tired original 134. Over the years this second engine was rebuilt three or four times.

V6-2At one point in time my grandfather had a V6 of some kind sitting in the garage that was supposed to go into the Jeep. Unfortunately when he made the move from Colorado to Washington State, the V6 was left behind.

Today I just came home with an engine for the old CJ5. It’s a Kaiser odd-fire Dauntless V6. I found it behind a barn in a Jeepster C101 sporting a Volkswagen Bug body. (It was the ugliest “Jeep” I have ever seen). But the engine was still in tact and was running when parked. I made the guy an offer for $100. He pulled the engine and had it sitting on a pallet for me the next week. I took home everything from the radiator to the bell housing. He wanted the transmission which is fine with me. Someone had painted the valve covers red but you can see the original paint underneath. There was a power steering pump scabbed on which I will remove since I have a manual Saginaw box. It will be nice to breath the life into the CJ5 that my grandfather had wanted.

V6 Valve-Cover-StampingOriginally, I had responded to a Craigslist add for a set of fenders. As it turned out I came home with a set of front fenders, a nice Koenig steel hard top model 550, and a Dauntless V6. He still has a Koenig PTO winch that I’m drooling over, but they don’t fit too well next to a Saginaw box.

I have attached a few pictures of the V6. In one of them you can catch a glimpse of the old CJ5 in the garage.

1946 VEC CJ-2A Keysville, Va eBay

• CATEGORIES: CJ-2A This site contains affiliate links for which I may be compensated.

Though this is a VEC columnshift CJ-2A, it doesn’t have the side indents, though they may have been replaced with a sheet metal patch.  It does have a rare, wooden interior you won’t find on most jeeps… lol

“LOOK! 1946 Willys Jeep cj2a. This is a low serial number vehicle, a Very Early Cilvilian model with the rare column shift. The body has the indents for the ax and shovel. It has a home made wooden cab and has been changed to 12 volts with a GM Delco alternator. I am using a remote 2 gallon gas tank mounted behind the cab. …..This is a good base for a great early model Jeep.

1942 MB Brookings, Or eBay

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

UPDATE:  Seller has posted the jeep on eBay with many pics.

The seller would like to get at least $1700, but the reserve is $1300.  Based on the pics, this is definitely an MB that has been modified to look CJ-2Aish (grill modified and tailgate added).

“The jeep runs and drives. It has newer front and rear seats. The data plates are missing, on the glovebox. It also has a 6 point roll bar, and later model rims and tires. It has a unique one of a kind front grill. I have a tow bar that comes with it. Great for restoration or custom mod rock crawler. Oregon title in hand. Need to sell due to job loss.”

UPDATE:  With the help of eWillys, Bill sold his jeep.  I’ll keep this for historical purposes.

Bill contacted me about selling this jeep he and his grandson have worked on for a few years. I suspect this good looking jeep was simply a bonus to that special time they enjoyed together.

Bill writes, “I have a 1948 Jeep cj2a that I bought in Black Mountain, NC. That was 4 years ago. I have done as much as I can to it.   It runs great and we had fun working on it. My grandson Josh and I hung out together for quite a long time and that was fun. ”

I thought at the time I would do a thorough restoration, but unfortunately I have alot on my plate and no time  to invest in this task. Overall this jeep is in wonderful condition, engine is extremely strong as well as drive train, there are no rust issues to speak of, body is in super good shape, tires are basically new, seat cushions are new, also equipped with a PTO driven winch in working condition.To put it simply if you’re looking for a good, solid, very clean MB here you go. It’s not a text book restoration by any means however it represents itself extremely well and if so inclined you could finish to whatever degree.”
