No obvious rust, but the rear of the body has been changed slightly for some reason.

This body is worth a look.
“1948 willys cj2a jeep body also have a suzuki samurai frame go with it. $1000 for body or $1300 for frame and body. Willys has a good title just waiting to get it back from Frankfort so it will be in my name. ”
Seller notes there is a ‘set’, but no word whether there is four or five.
“Old school aluminum hurricane rims. Came off 1978 F150 4×4. We will sell as a complete set only.”
The body has a metal dash added to it.
“Fiberglass tub with metal dash, metal fenders, hood, grill, windshield frame, all in good shape, also a set of tires and wheels that are good for rollers.”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $1200
Parts vehicle with no drive train.
“Rare 1953 Willys CJ3B Highhood Jeep. Rolling Chassis. No motor, transmission, transaxle or drive shafts are included. The floor of the tub is in pretty good shape with no rust through. The tub will need some attention though as the rear corners are pretty beat up. The differentials have been set up as spring over axle but I know nothing about the condition of the axle internals. The frame will need new shackle mounts all around as the current mounting of the springs to the frame is ugly.”
UPDATE: Price dropped to $7000.
(02/16/2015) Refurbed, yes. Appears solid. Not restored to original.
“Complete frame off restoration. runs like new. The electrical system is upgraded to 12 volts with original cloth style wiring harness. I also added a limited slip to the back differential. This jeep is a runner and a ton of fun. I regret selling but I don’t have time to enjoy it.”
The windshield sure fits oddly. I wonder if the pivot points were moved forward.
“Rare Ford Jeep. Only made a few years. Call for details”
