“mity-mite jeep for sale overhauled motor otherwise original all aluminum body runs good clear title you could not find a nicer military jeep”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $1000
This fiberglass bodied jeep includes an overdrive. It hasn’t been touched in a while, but there appears to be value here.
“53 Willys Jeep. Project. Set up for small Chevy. 3 speed manual tranny. Dana 18 with Warn O/D. Fiberglass body. Stock Dana axles. Stock Willys frame. Has not ran in probably decades. Purchased by my late Father in the early 90’s, and put where it sits. Original Vin plate intact. Hasn’t been tagged since 1988. Definitely a project. Will NOT part out.
Was told the little Chevy in it, is a 327. But I have no way to confirm it. If interested, you would need to come look at it. Like I said, it’s a project. It’s being sold as is. Have not been able to find the title, but I am looking. It existed at one time. $1000 obo. The Vin alone is worth….”
If I understand the ad, this does not include the top.
“1954 Willys M38A1 Original seats and engine with less than 41,000 miles. 24 volt battery system. Comes without arctic top. Came over from Korea. No rust. Garage stored. You can drive it today or restore it even further. All reasonable offers will be considered.

UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $1700
The winch alone is worth several hundred dollars. The engine runs, but the steps are rough.
“1953 Willys CJ3B. This has been a project that has sat in my garage for the last 20 years with basically no further progress. It has a Buick V6 225 in it that runs. I have the original paperwork from the release from the governement for it as well. I just need to gain the space back that I have lost in my shop. I also have four swamp tires for it when I originally received it from Alaska that I’ll throw in as well.”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was on eBay.
It’s got rust.
“1947 (?) Willys Jeep Sedan Delivery Project. Because of the rust and damage to the lower half of this vehicle, I am selling it as a project/rat rod project. Doors and fenders are not very good and either is the lower portion of the cab and body. Floors also have rust. Upper half and the top are in good condition. Has the original split front seats, gauges and heater. No engine or Title. Rolls but the RF brake is locked up.”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was on eBay.
(03/17/2013) The body appears to be a replacement. For some reason, it’s dented near the top of the dash. I’ve never seen that. It’s a no reserve auction starting at $200.
“1947 Willys Jeep CJ2A
Titled as a 1951 (Can not guarantee the exact year) See the Vin number on the photo of the title. Might be able to look it up in a registry.
This Jeep was bought as a project about 10 years ago and do not have room to store it any longer. It has been sitting in California for the last 10 year. Purchased from a Farm in the Midwest. It sat in the barn untouched for 30 years. Was running 10 years ago but is not currently running now. Might just need a battery and a tune up to get it running. Brakes are bad and needs a full restoration. Would be a great project car as it has really good bones. There is some rust on the exterior and on the undercarriage but not that bad. Body is pretty straight.”
UPDATE: Was $6500 for both. Status Unknown**
