1943? (maybe ’53) CJ-3A Tulsa, Ok $2200
This looks like a good deal to me.
“This is a 1943 Willys, It runs but has been modified in a few ways. The things that have been changed are: seats, added roll bar, steering column, tires, and motor. This is all that I am aware of. It runs out fine, but I wanted you to be aware of everything up front. Thanks for looking, you can contact me at 527-8605”
1951 M-38 Boise, Id **SOLD**?
UPDATE: I dropped by the seller’s house today to check this jeep out. Kim’s father is the actual seller and Kim is selling it for him. Both father and son rebuild wagon’s, with Kim specializing in Sheep Wagons (see pic to the right). I suspect the large Basque population in southern Idaho (5th largest community of Basques in the world) fosters this unusual hobby (at least I’ve never seen these anywhere else).
As for the jeep, it turns out to be a pretty stock M-38 that runs. It’s got some rough edges and needs some paint. It’s got the dual battery setup. It could use new seat covers and a new gas tank and a few other items. A professional mechanic has done some work on it and can provide more specific information.
1953 CJ-3A Northern Az $3500
Except for that bump in the hood, this looks like it was a good solid build. Non runner now.
“Started to rebuild and ran out of time. Two bodies 2 trannys,transfer cases. Everthing must go. Need more room in shop. $3500.00 takes it all..”
