1955 CJ-3B Sacramento, Ca eBay

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

Even though the picture isn't great, it's easy to tell this CJ-3B is likely in great shape. 

"There no room to list all that this has on it.  You really should see it to beleive what it has.  I can send photo to the person who has placed a bid.  I also have a matching off road cargo trailer that looks great with the 3B.  The motor is a 350ci Chevy with only 1000 miles on it.  Lots and lots of chrome, just to much to list here.

1946 CJ-2A New York eBay

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

This CJ-2A appears well maintained with a very nice, newer Auger.  The jeep also sports the rare borg warner overdrive that mounts behind the transfercase output shaft.  I doubt any buyer will offer the $9000 starting bid request. Post Hole Digger. Roper?

“I purchased this Willys two years ago and it was what you might call a parade vehicle. Very nice to look at with the wood trim and rust free body. It had been converted to a 12 volt electrical system.”

1954 CJ-3B Westfall, Or eBay

• CATEGORIES: CJ-3B, M-38A1 This site contains affiliate links for which I may be compensated.

UPDATE:  This CJ-3B is back on ebay (last time was mid may).  Starting bid is now $2200.

The beginning bid price is $2500, which is a bit high for a non running jeep. The rims and tires look new and in good shape.  Westfall Oregon is in the middle of eastern Oregon, a ways off either highway 20 or 26.

"For sale is a 1954 Willys CJ-3B, "High Hood". This is the jeep Willys replaced the CJ-3A with, by adding the new overhead engine. Being a taller engine, it needed more room, so, Willys raised the hood. I bought this Willys from a man who was driving it back and forth to work. He had started to restore the jeep, (pulled the radiator, front clip, started some body work…) then he ran out of time, and sold it to me. It is not running at this time….."

My Build — More Engine fun …

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

UPDATE June 21:   My second trip for bearings to the NAPA store was a failure.  They shipped me bearings that were wrong AGAIN!  I got my money back and went online to find bearings.  That was a failure as well as I couldn't get anything to ship sooner than July 7.  Desperate to do the build while the kids are here, I turned to autozone.  Amazingly, not only did they have the bearings in the store and in stock, but they were only $26 (for the same Clevite77 bearings NAPA was charging me $42).  Even better, I had earned $10 on my Autozone store card and  so the final cost for the bearings was only $17. —–

June 20th .. I was all ready to assemble the engine when I discovered the Main bearings didn't fit correctly.  After examining them more carefully, I discovered they didn't work at all.  The 'tang' was in the wrong location as was the oil hole.  

This morning, I took the bearings back to the NAPA store.  After a discovery process of about 20 minutes we finally concluded I got the correct bearing box, but the box had tractor bearings rather than buick v-6 bearings.  So, my new bearings should be here tomorrow morning.  Because of this, the engine build has been delayed until monday (when the kids are back).

1955 CJ-5 Seattle $14,000

• CATEGORIES: CJ5 This site contains affiliate links for which I may be compensated.

Are you kidding me?  $14,000 for a cj5 that needs suspension work?  Add to that it's a pink jeep with "Angel's Toy" on the back and you're looking at a jeep that has a pretty small buyer demographic.  

"1955 Willys CJ5 Jeep. It has a 327 corvette motor, 4 speed tranny twin stick transfer case, has tilt wheel, spring over sitting on 42in super swampers. It was painted aproximately 10 years ago,but has been garaged until two months ago, it's never seen mud, but would be a fun toy to have. It has a stainless steel custom dash."
