I’m gonna guess this was a CJ-3 with a MB/GPW grille.  It appears this might have been at least a decent jeep at some point.

UPDATE: Status Unknown.Was on eBay

It looks pretty rough and needs to be push started.

“I AM TOLD THIS IS A 1951 CJ-3A MODEL  WE HAVE NO PAPER WORK, BUT IT CAN BE OBTAINED IN MOST STATES. THE JEEP RUNS GOOD, BUT IT HAS TO BE PULL STARTED. THE STARTER NEEDS SOME WORK. IT HAS A POWER TAKE OFF 8,000 POUND RAMSEY WINCH. IT IS BELIEVED TO BE ORIGINAL.HAS ORIGINAL GLASS IN DOORS AND THEY SLIDE UP AND DOWN.”

UPDATE: **SOLD** Was For Trade.

It’s got an interesting paint job.  I wonder if there was some body work done on the driver’s side front?

“it has a good running 307 chevery motor. all it needs is the carb rebuilt. I am looking for something more practical and safe for my daughter and I. I am open to all offers but im most interested in 4×4 k5 blazer, ramcharger, full size bronco, full size pickup, any 4×4 toyota or 80s jeep, muscle car or rat rod.”

This thing actually runs.  It sounds like this might be a good deal.  Plus, the seller needs to sell it quickly!!

“Unfortunatly, I have run into some finacial issues and am not able to do what I would like with this Jeep. I pulled it out of a barn on one of our farms after it had sat for probably 20 years; Replaced the fuel lines, put in new plugs, and flushed the tank FIRED RIGHT UP! It has the original engine in it not sure what exactly it is and i believe the axles are dana 44’s? The tires all hold air and has newer black wall wheels. There is no title for it willing to write a bill of sale but it is being sold as an “Off road Vehicle”. It does not have any seats and needs a new steering wheel as well as a battery but have one that I can throw in there to show you how well it runs. The Brakes will need a service aswell. The 4 wheel drive works very well and all gears work aswell. I am looking to get rid of this ASAP! So all offers are open for discussion. Please call or email me with any other questions that I can answer! (971)226-9489 Dan.Dyrdahl@vzw.blackberry.net.”
