There deserves a closer look. I can’t tell if there’s some rust lurking under the surface or not. No description provided.

Thanksgiving: Turkey & Jeeps
Ok, it’s a stretch, in celebration of Thanksgiving I thought I’d post a few Turkey and jeep pics.
1. This CJ-3B was part of a 2008 parade in Turkey. You can see more vehicles here: http://www.military-vehicle-photos.com/picture/number9536.asp
2. Down at the Shonto Ranch in Kerrville, TX, you can shoot your own turkeys for Thanksgiving in a Zebra Jeep: http://www.shontohunting.com/content/zebra-jeep-camera-safari

(03/11/2012) “For sale: 1963 CJ3b
This CJ is among the last of the Willys branded ever made. There has been 3 owners in its lifetime. The Jeep was redone in the early 80s by the second owner. I got this Jeep 6 years ago.
This is a project.
I am roughly 60-70% done with it. I rebuilt the engine, transmission, transfer case, both differentials, upgraded the brakes (everything new), painted the frame with rust inhibiting paint, and a few other thing here and there.
What need to be done to finish this project is to finish installing some of the drive-line components, steering parts would need to be replaced ($15 for a tie rod end), cooling system installed, some bodywork, and the electrical system.
The body is rough, however replacement bodies are available. the hardtop is solid and all glass is in good shape.
I have almost everything one would need to finish this project, and all will go with.
This CJ is a rare find. It would be a perfect project for someone just getting into working on cars and trucks as a hobby, or someone who would lake to make it into an off road toy (as I was doing) This Jeep has a clear title and would be easy to get it back on the road. Parts new and used for these Jeeps are readily available.”

I ran across this neat old photo of a USDA Forest Service CJ-3B at their site. I couldn’t pull up the actual page. You can view the original picture here: http://www.fs.usda.gov/Internet/FSE_MEDIA/stelprdb5354294.jpg

1953 CJ-3B Tucson, AZ eBay
UPDATE: This is now on eBay was listed for $3999 on Craigslist.
(07/17/2012) The seller notes that this is in great original condition. It looks solid and while there is lots of original jeep here, the drain holes have been plugged and it appears from the pictures that the front and lower sides have been painted differently than the rear portion of the body. I suspect there has been some body work done.
