“1950 Cj3A
4cyl flathead with a t90 3 speed tranny
Fresh rebuilt carb
Entire brake system is brand new
New front pinion bearing
Out of dmv system but I have the pink

The Bad:
The previous owner had this motor bored .060 over at a machine shop but did not touch the head. I believe the head is slightly warped and letting water into cylinder 3. If I had the time I would have it machined and have a good running jeep but I have too many projects. This jeep DOES run just smokes because of the head.

2000$ as is or 2500$ with a saturn overdrive unit.
Will be sold on stock wheels and tires.”

Jeep-A-Loader

UPDATE: This is the original patent for the Jeep-a-Loader! The application was first filed on February 07, 1955, by the Minneapolis Freeman Mfg, Co. (Out of Minneapolis??). I am guessing that the Jeep-A-Loader Corporation was a subsidiary or offshoot from the above parent company. The drawing shows that the Jeep-A-Loader was designed to fit over a CJ-3B (perhaps a CJ-5 as well), though the only one I’ve seen documented is fitted on a CJ-3A.

The filing date likely means this was manufactured around 1955, plus or minus a year. The patent was granted February 11, 1958.

This photo is from 2009:

From June 2008:  A reader named Ed sent me some pics of a rare find he just purchased:  A front end loader for a jeep from a manufacturer called Jeep-a-Loader.   The serial number is 1001. The hydraulics system is powered by a Hy-lo hydraulic pump, which has been used to power other Willys devices.  You can see an example of a Hy-lo pump here and here.  Here are some pics below.
