1953 CJ-3A Golden Valley, CA **SOLD**

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

UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $1500.

Note that the front end appears lengthened.  That looks to be a tilt  fiber glass front end, though I don’t remember seeing them looking that stretched. The body might be a M-38 body as I see some tool indents on the passenger side.  The front end has some warn hubs similar to what you’d see on a 70’s CJ-5.   This might be a pretty good deal and an interesting project.

“this is a 53 willys it runs great it has been converted to a 250 inline 6 so the front frame has been lengthend 6 inches , it has oringinal axles tranny and transfer case, i also have a bihimi top for it with doors, it runs super just looking for a cj5 or 7 1500 obo or trade for???”

Jeep Images From Cuba via Tim

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

Many thanks to Tim from the WillysJeep.com site for sharing these unusual images. He notes he has many more.  I suspect over the next few months as the site grows it will become an important library of information.  Thanks Tim!

The timing of these photos is fascinating, as early 1959 was the ending of the Cuban Revolution and the assumption of control of Cuba by Castro.  Based on a few searches I just completed, it appears Fidel was a fan of jeeps and there are multiple references of him riding in a jeep.

And, in the last photo, that is Fidel himself.

Here’s a pic I’d like to get.  After recieving the pics from Tim, I did a little research.  Here is a video of an image of Fidel and Che Guerva posing in a Jeep in April of 1959. Unfortunately, I do not understand what the narrator is saying.

4 15″ x 7″ Jeep Slot Rims Memphis, TN **SOLD**

• CATEGORIES: Tires and Rims This site contains affiliate links for which I may be compensated.

UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $150.

The pic shows four rims, but only 3 are 5 1/2 x 5 bolt pattern.

“15” by 7″ wide Ford bolt pattern Old style slot wheels ( made by Western) like the ones on Starsky and Hutch Torino or the old time drag car Willys of the day. These wheels were bought for another project that I sold and no longer need. The good: they are not cracked anywhere or have curb rash. The bad: three are 5 1/2″ bolt pattern , one is a 5″ .. I know I know this is goofy but i bought to go on a trike project and only needed two. Maybe you only need two or maybe you got a 5 1/2 laying around and need a 5″ because somewhere there is a set of three 5″ and one 5 1/2 ” we’ll make a deal to swap. I’ll also consider a trade on almost anything else —  Old motorcycle”

1948 CJ-2A Jal, Nm eBay

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

Here’s another CJ-5/Flattie Body Merger.  But, what really is unusual is that bumper.

“Too many projects, this one has to go!  I bought this Willys last summer with intentions of rebuilding it.  What was I thinking?  I have way to many things going right now and feel overwhelmed.  So, here is your chance to get a project that I believe will be worth doing.

The guy I bought it from said it was running when it was parked two summers ago and I believe him because they drove it flat and broke the bead on two tires and that is where they parked it.  The jeep is complete as far as I can tell and body is in fair condition.  It rolls freely, I towed it home over 40 miles with the tow bar that is on it.  The engine also rolls freely, I can turn it by hand.  It has an alternator so it has been converted to 12 volt.  The transmission and transfer case shift just fine.  The clutch pedal is stuck and the break pedal is hard to push, don’t know what the problem is there, sort of feels like it’s in the linkages.”

1947 CJ-2A Albuquerque, Nm eBay

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

This is a very honestly photographed Jeep.  The seller has been generous with closeup pics of problem areas.

“1946 Willys Jeep CJ2A. It has a clear New Mexico Title and the numbers on the data plates match the number on the title. The body is in what I consider to be rough shape with it’s share of rust in all the normal places, please see pictures. The jeep does run, I will re-install the gas tank if the jeep needs to be shipped. The rims are the stock 16 inch and are all in good shape, three of the tires are good, one of them is cracked from age and does leak air slowly. There are no seats at all. The Jeep still has the 6 volt system (brand new battery) I have not driven the jeep at all so not sure how all the running gear works. Everything seems to go in and out of gear. Buyer will have to arrange shipping or pick up the Jeep. I will be able to assist with loading. If you have any questions or would like more pictures of a specific area let me know. If you want to talk to me call me at 505-803-8767 ask for Bill. This is a no reserve auction highest bidder will take it home.”
