1961 CJ-3B Hartland, VT $2500

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

Listed as a 1961, the lack of a stamped hood got me thinking. Checking the serial number revealed this is actually a mid-1963 CJ-3B, so the non-stamped hood could very well be original. No description provided.
