UPDATE: **SOLD** Was on eBay.

This jeep was featured yesterday at Road & Track, because it is supposedly a one-owner jeep with only 35k miles. It’s being sold by an outfit that seems to specialize in auto sales out of the Boise area. Given they specialize in auto sales, and given it’s a one owner vehicle, I would think they’d get the VIN number at least close. Instead, they have a strange VIN of 8804255829, which means a person probably couldn’t track the history of the jeep if they wanted. It’s hard for me to believe there isn’t a VIN plate still on this jeep (if it truly is an unmolested, original jeep). After all, it looks like the original gusset is still there. I can’t help think I’ve seen this jeep before, especially the oddly shaped (bent) passenger side fender. Anyone else have thoughts?

Here’s an example of a CJ-3B the same seller tried to sell on ebay with “original matching numbers”, but with an incorrect VIN of 34501. That VIN (which is missing the prefix of 57348) would be for a 1957. You’ll note the speedometer is a post 55 unit as well. The same cutesy tools are attached to the sides like they did with the 2A below.”

UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $4700.

This is a project. It was previously for sale last February in Gillette, WY.

I see no signs it is a 1945 (either a CJ or a MB/GPW). Maybe the body is a replacement body of some type?
