Looks like a fine cage at a reasonable price. This might not fit a low hood depending on how tightly the front loop follows the high hood cowl and windshield.

“Roll cage with mounting hardware removed from a 1954 CJ3B. I would assume it would fit any flat fender cj 3a, 2a ford or whatever.”
Price is right, but will need some work.

Could be a good price. You’ll want to verify how the front of the top mounts to the windshield [channel mount (3A or M-38) or twist fobs (MB/GPW or CJ-2A … yeah, I know that’s not the right name for them, just can’t think of the right name at the moment)]. The top is resting on a CJ-5, but that’s just for show.
“Best Top for Jeep CJ2A 1945 to 1949 and MB 1941 to 1945 with bows. This is a top I received with a 1948 CJ2A that I am restoring and chose not to put a top on it. It is a new top that has not been installed, in new condition. Have the original installation instructions and owners manual, both soft doors, bows, bag of parts. We displayed this topper on our Jeep (which does not fit) for pictures only. Any questions please email.”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $6500.
(12/13/2019) Appears solid. Has an F-head.
“Willy’s Jeep cj3. Very nice condition, no rust lots of extra parts.
Would be a great restore project or use for off roading.
All systems work including 4wd. Clean Title”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $500.
No title. No engine.
“1948 jeep cj2a for sale, no title, its missing. Bought it to restore thinking it would be an easy quick one but its too much of a project for me. No motor. Has original tranny, t-case, and axles. someone along the way put on a decent suspension and a roll cage. Neat old Jeep!
will trade for plymouth duster /valiant/scamp/ dodge dart part, chevy square body parts, rotary motor, old ww2 military memorabilia, ford galaxy / galaxie parts, Isuzu rodeo parts, 1 gen supra parts or late 1st generation mustang parts.”
Runs, but needs work of some kind. Seems worth a look.

“Willys CJ2A, running engine, needs tuning. No current title in hand.

New battery, running lights work.”
Prior to the Kaiser buyout, Willys-Overland was a regular advertiser in the Saturday evening post, with ads appearing almost monthly from late 1941 (after winning its military contract) up until 1952.
From 1952 through 1954, the focus of the advertising shifted to the new Willys Areo line of vehicles, abandoning jeep advertising in the Post almost entirely.
In February of 1954, one ad for the Willys wagon was published, the only jeep-oriented ad of the year. However, the title of the ad was “The Common-Sense Car that Leads a Double Life”. So, even that ad was as much a “car'” ad as a “jeep” ad.
Given how similar the above ad was to the Willys Makes Sense campaign of 1951, It’s clear that even under the early days of Kaiser’s management, the advertising for the Willys/Jeep line had yet to be changed. That probably explains why no more jeep ads appeared in the Saturday Evening Post for the remainder of 1954 (and Willys Aero ads ceased after June of 1954).
Then, on January 8, 1955, Willys Motors published a two-page splash with an ad for it’s new model: The CJ-5.
Subsequently, Willys Motors’ advertising in the Post waned again, absent throughout the remainder of 1955. It’s advertising in the Post remained dormant until mid-1956.
On June 16, 1956, Willys Motors published “Gets there … works there … anywhere!”. The ad also appeared to have introduced a new slogan: ‘Jeep’ VEHICLES BY WILLYS KEEP AMERICA ON THE MOVE (that was used by the company at least through the end of 1957 .. I haven’t check past that yet).
Once again, jeep ads started appearing on a regular basis. On August 4, 1956, the ad, “Gets there … works there … anywhere” was published:
Willys Motors continued advertising monthly with the same three-pane theme. These were the next three ads:
On December 29, 1956, the final Post issue of the year, Willys Motors interrupted its three-panel campaign to introduce readers, in a two-page color ad no less, to the new model of jeep: the Forward Control ‘Jeep’ FC-150.
As well see in a future post, the company continued an almost monthly advertising campaign through out the following year of 1957.
This September 18, 1941, article in the Petoskey News-Review introduced readers to the new Air-Borne Battalion. The new battalion would be trained in air landing operations and include two rifle companies. One of those two companies would be equipped with riflemen on bikes (40), motorcycles (140), and jeeps (105).
This ad, “Willys-Overland brings Farmers the advantages of 4-Wheel-Drive Power”, was published in March of 1948 most likely in a farm magazine (based on other ads the seller was selling).
It’s listed as a jewels, which is usually a higher quality tub. But, I’d make sure it is stamped jewels before believing that.

Custom build. I wonder how many states would allow this to be licenses for the roads given the width of the axles/tires.
