1950 CJ-3A Flagstaff, Az $2500
Not to make fun of the paint job, but I really thought something was creating shadows over the jeep. Then, I looked at an interior pic and saw it had a strange camo paint job. I thought, ‘wait, that’s not on the outside of the jeep’. But, I was wrong, it is indeed some type of camo on the outside.
“1950 Willys Needs Title 4X4. Priced to sell at $2500 or best offer. I’ve had this for over a year… received it in a trade. New 327 engine. 205 Trasfer case. Dana 44.

Reader Builds — Troy’s nicely modified CJ-3A & race jeep
UPDATE: Troy sent along a couple pics of his race jeep also. There’s one to the right and one down below.
Below is Troy’s street and trail CJ-3A. It’s been modified in a variety of ways, including a Dana 60 in the back, a Dana 44 in the front and lockers all around. Troy buys and sells stainless steel in the Northwest and is trying to decide whether to start adding more stainless steel or not to this jeep. His biggest concern is if he starts dressing it up too nice, he’ll be too afraid to bring it out to the trails. If this jeep does start growing stainless steel fenders, I doubt he’ll suffer too much as Troy will still have an opportunity to get dirty playing in his flat fender racing jeep that he calls “Twisted”.
Also, if you seek any stainless steel parts for your CJ-3A or CJ-3B, Troy assures me he can get them for you. You can contact him at jeepfrk50@comcast.net
Barrel Racing in the Tacoma Dome Jan 16 & Jan 17, 2009
This weekend, Friday January 16 & Saturday January 17th, 2009, members of the PNW4WDA will be holding barrel races as part of a Monster Truck show at the Tacoma Dome in Tacoma Washington. As you can see from the 2009 schedule, most of the races throughout the year tend to be in fairly remote locations, making them pretty private; This race provides a unique opportunity for the general public to see these unusual jeeps. To the right is a link to a myspace video shot last year by a spouse of the racer (I assumed it was from a spouse considering the ‘dumb ass’ comment heard in the accompanying audio).
Here’s a link to a TON of pictures from 2008 Tacoma Dome races on the Moonshiners’ Jeep Club website (though lots of dark and blurry ones too ).
1952 M-38 Surakarta, Jawa Tengah, Indonesia eBay
This is for our Indonesian readers, of which there are probably zero …. However, we have some great readers from India who might find this M-38 a rare opportunity. NOTE: This body does not have the battery opening on the cowl nor the cutouts on the passenger side!!
“This is a 1952 Willys GPW M38. It has been completely disassembled and rebuilt and restored from the ground up. Everthing on or in this Jeep has ethier been rebuilt or replaced. The engine was rebuilt in the process. Everthing works as it should including all the gauges. The top and all the upholstery is new…..”
1942 Jeepney Sultan, Wa eBay
UPDATE: It’s back …..
While I’ve managed not to finish my treatise on jeepneys — the draft form of which includes what a person needs to do to import a jeepney and the prices of some older ones — I really don’t believe this is a 1942 Jeepney. Even if there are parts leftover from said 1942 jeep, most of the rest of the jeepney looks more like a later model jeepney (though it is not like the latest models). Here’s a little more about Jeepneys. If the seller reads this and wishes to correct me, please contact me.
“1942 jeepney ,vietnam era Philippines taxi,this is a unrestored original,it has a great running willy four cyl flat head motor,warn high low with over drive,this jeepney is in good running driving condition,overall condition is good some of the chrome needs to be replated it has a dent on back corner of roof, paint is in great condition has all original parts,my family purchased it in around 1974 had it sent to Sarao Motors to add lettering to personalize it and then had it shipped to Seattle it has alway been garaged and has been hidden in our barn since 1984.
