“1954 Willys Jeep, CJ3b. Has a roll bar and a tow bar. In good shape. It’s been sitting so it needs a new battery, seals for the carburator and brake lines. Had a baby, husband wouldn’t let me put a baby seat in it. :)”

Jeep Collection for sale out of Colorado
UPDATE: This was $85,000 for the whole collection. I have found some related craigslist ads. See them below.
I’ve found a couple references to the sale of this collection. Anyone know more? Based on the pic to the right, these don’t appear in great condition. My guess is that this is over priced.
Here is a link to another reference at Hemmings, where I found the pic to the right.
Here’s a link to Hemmings that reads “WILLYS: elderly WW II veteran has vintage Jeep collection, 40s-60s, both military and civilian, must sell, best offer.”

CRAIGSLIST ADS RELATED TO ABOVE:
1946 CJ-2A $4995
This one looks perfectly find. The price doesn’t seem that outrageous.
“1946 Willys C-J2A spruce green all original condition, partially restored with new canvas removable top – runs and drives – $4,995”
1948 CJ-2A $11,500
This one doesn’t look like it is in great condition. There’s no reason to think it is worth $11,500.
“1948 Willys C-J2A signal red fully restored and in great condition – $11,500– Firm”

1953 CJ-3B Richfield, Va **seller backs out**
UPDATE: Mike and the seller agreed to a deal, but the seller backed out of his agreement with Mike (hopefully, Mike found this out before he made the trip to see it). No doubt someone probably offered more.
“Here is my “53 Willys jeep, it has the original 4 cylinder motor with the 6 volt system. The motor, transmission, and transfer case are all in real good working order. The transmission has a very rare feature, it has the torque gear in it. What that is if you don’t already know, is the fourth shifter you can hopefully see in the picture. It more or less gives you a high and low range for each gear. Which is kind of nice for on the road. Because these aren’t made for speedanyway. The frame is in good shape,no holes rusted threw. The jeep is licensed with antique license which from what I am told they are transferrable. I believe they were $75, a one time fee.”
1954 CJ-3B Georgia No Price
No price listed for this 1954 CJ-3B out of Georgia. It appears in good condition.

1963 CJ-3B Rifle, Co **SOLD**
This is a good looking CJ-3B. It’s probably hard to find a brown CJ-3B top anymore.

Year? CJ-3B Sevierville, Tn **SOLD**
This might be worth a look. The poor paint job might be masking a reasonable body. I wonder how the seller knows the running gears are good (because it rolls?).
“i have a 60′ willys jeep with a title,the body is in good condition for the year,the r unning gears are good and the motor was running when the jeep was parked a couple of years ago but doesnt start now.the jeep seems to be all original for the most part”

1953 CJ-3B Eldorado Hills, Ca $15,000
UPDATE: It seems I put the wrong link into this Ad. Now, I can’t find the link. I suspect this has sold already. I’ll keep a watch for it again.
Here’s a pretty CJ-3B. Lots of big pictures and detailed information on new parts included in the Ad.
