UPDATE:  This sold for $4,995 on 01/11/2009 on eBay.

This CJ-3A only reached a high bid of $3,550 during the last auction attempt. I was a little surprised by that, but it’s also not been restored to ‘original specs’.  It looks nice and is back on the auction block.

“1949 CJ3A in extremely good condition.  It has be in body off restoration for 13 years striped to the frame.  It had the usual rust in the floor pans, new steel was welded in these areas. Also new under body rails were welded in. The frame was in good shape and the floor and the rear fender well are in good shape.  After the body tub was completed and before installed on the frame it was completely undercoated with a rubbery undercoat. Both front and rear axles were completely disassembled and rebuilt….”

UPDATE:  Price has dropped to $4000.  The seller incorrectly calls this a CJ-3B. This has been sale for 9 months.

“Great little Willys in great condition with a soft top. 495-2809 or 880-7929 ”

The seller has either the model or the year wrong on this jeep.

“New paint, runs great. Custom seats, new top, custom wheels worth $1200 themselves. Drives great. Nice seats that makes it a nice ride. Worth a lot more than the asking price and would cost a lot more to restore one to this conditon. This is a head turner. Looking to move and need to sell. Serious buyers only.”

UPDATE: Was $15,000. **SOLD**

Looks like a very nice CJ-3A with some quality customizations.

“Fully restored from “frame-up” 1951 Willys that is ready for Glamis, trail riding, or the street. Chevy 350 stroked to a 383 that dyno’s at 475 horsepower. Uses 91 pump gas. Comes with street tires and rear sand tires. The Jeep was built by Mike Record in 2000 and the motor was rebuilt (less than 25 hours on it) by Chris Patton.”

UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $1000.

It appears to have a number of modifications, including a suspension change and a tilte steering wheel.  It may not much more than a parts jeep at this point.

“with high proformance 289 completely rebuilt and running. Project car. Running but not ready for road. needs work.lots of parts. consider part trade for running and complet.

Update:  **SOLD** Was $2800.

This looks to be a good price.  The tires look good and the body looks straight from the picture angle.  Given the seller didn’t include the keyword “willys” this may be a difficult one for most people to find, which might mean the price will drop some more from lack of calls.

“1952 jeep $2800 all stock or trade for??????”

UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $3600

What jeep isn’t complete without a CD player.  Some interesting custom doors.
