1953 CJ-3B Hesperus, CO **SOLD**

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

UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $3000.

(08/31/2019) Has some extra vents in the floor. This might have some free-lock hubs, but I can’t tell for sure.

1953-cj3b-hesperus-co1 1953-cj3b-hesperus-co2 1953-cj3b-hesperus-co3 1953-cj3b-hesperus-co4

“1953 Willys Jeep CJ-3B $3000 obo This Jeep is in pretty good shape and mostly original for its age. The Good: Mostly original, except for the Solex carb and screw on oil filter; these are both improvements unless you’re after a nut and bolt restoration, and it would be easy to go back to stock if you want. Steel hardtop. Starts easily and runs and drives well. Body is in good condition for the age. The Bad: Brakes are adequate but not excellent. Some rust, the worst of it is in the passenger floorboard. Wiring is sketchy at best. The Ugly: It’s a CJ-3B. Some people love them, most think they’re hideous. I like it, but I guess I’m in the minority. In any case, I have too many projects and I don’t think I’ll ever get to this one”

M-151 Hardtop Sanford, NC **SOLD**

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

UPDATE:  **SOLD** Was $150. It appears to be an M-151 hardtop.

Here’s an odd hardtop. The strange part is the odd inlet (fuel inlet of some kind?) on the passenger door at a place that would be incorrect for a jeep.

UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $6950. Now for sale here: http://www.ewillys.com/2019/11/14/1958-cj-6-san-gabriel-ca-9000/

This CJ-6 has the King Seeley 0-8 speedo with the broken pointer (not uncommon to see them broken). I’m surprised to see that speedo in a model as late as 1958, so it wouldn’t surprise me if this was actually an early 1957 model sold as a 1958.

CJ-2A Hardtop Post Falls, ID **SOLD**

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

UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $400.

This appears to have most of the elements of a Porter & Reed hardtop, except that the rear of the top is rounded. This feels like a transitional top between what was Porter & Reed and whomever purchased the company (if any one did). Early Koenig tops were similar to this, so perhaps Koenig (out of Texas) purchased Porter & Reed (out of Kansas)??

“Complete aluminum hardtop and doors for a Willy’s CJ 2A Jeep. May fit other models.
The Jeep in the pictures is not for sale. Those pictures are just for reference.
I’m unsure of the actual value so make me a reasonable offer.”

1950 CJ-3A Spokane, WA Make Offer

UPDATE II: Still Available. 

UPDATE: This is actually the 2nd Oneida hardtop found with a flat fender in the Spokane area (other is here). Maybe someone was converting them at the Air Force Base west of Spokane? 

This top surprised me. It has a date plate! It seems to be some kind of manufactured-for-the-military hardtop. It’s made by the Oneida Products Corp. out of Oneida, New York. The manufacture date is August 1951.
