Has original wheels, interior seats, and excellent and rare all aluminum aftermarket hardtop. Body is very nice for this vintage, SURFACE rust only all over, with repair work needed in the pass. floor and side panel. Was originally a municipal vehicle in Irvington NJ as a meter patrol. Hood and windshield have original stencils from the town. Very nice windshield frame and fenders. Has the often missing side steps in good shape.  Silly aluminum bolt on bumpers remove to expose original drawbar underneath. Excellent restoration candidate, please email with questions. Sold as is, no warranty express or implied. Buyer to pick up. Peeling paint and surface rust make it look really bad, but the body is really very solid.”

UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $6000.

“54 Willys CJ3B. I have had considerable work done on this Jeep in order to make it a reliable hunter’s friend. The motor was professionally rebuilt by R.P.M. Cylinderhead and Engine of Fort Walton Beach, Florida and has zero miles on it. All other work was completed by Jimmy’s Motors in Fort Walton Beach Florida. Receipts available. It has: completely rebuilt engineto use unleaded fuel, new steering shaft, gear and steering wheel, new brakes, wheel cylinders, springs, etc., including new master cylinder, new shocks, new windshield and frame, new radiator, new tailgate, new hood. AND it has a brand new Warn M6000 wench, which has never been used, and was professionally installed by Accent Accessories of Fort Walton Beach Florida. I’ve owned a number of Jeeps and wanted this one to be THE Jeep, but I came down with cancer and can no longer afford to keep it. It is a 1954, but is registered as a 1948 because the DMV made a mistake when I registered it and they are apparently staffed by morons who can’t get understand this VIN is not the same as the modern 17 digit VINs.”

A “New” CJ-3B from ICON

UPDATE: ICON is no longer selling these jeeps. They were priced at $45,000

Jump over to the CJ-3B Page and check out the latest on the new ICON CJ-3B, the first of several (or many?) new CJ-3Bs that will roll of the ICON plant from Van Nuys, CA.  Derek covers this vehicle very thoroughly.  It appears they’ve built a good rig.  The engine is an interesting choice, likely providing debate for some time.   Make sure to check out the gauge panel; it’s very different!

You can also see many pictures of an early prototype here from the CJ-3B Page.

Builds: Jim finds a nice old CJ-3B

Jim, take it away and thanks for sharing!

So I got a call today, woman says she has a1953 plow jeep she wants to get rid of. She said her deceased father, a mechanic, owned it for more than 40 years and used it to plow his business etc. When I hear plow jeep, Im thinking piece of rusty crap thats been worked to death etc. I have a driveway thats 1/3 of a mile long and I will need a plow this winter so I went to take a look.

Man, was I shocked, a completely (except orange paint) original 1953 CJ3B, 6 volt, uncut, runs great, has brakes, chains on all four studded tires, nice original seats, 15″ stock wheels, no rust to speak of, super straight, soft top frame with a tarp over it, still has the snap in carpet kit. Some one had obviously loved it for many, many years. Under that layer of dust is a really nice jeep and after a long heart to heart talk, its now mine for very little money!

I brought it home and tested it out.  Everything works great, brakes, heater etc but there is a weird knocking on the engine, seems to come go at time so Im thinking someone dropped a bolt or something into the carb and it is knocking on top of a piston. I will know for sure when I pull the head in a few days but overall it is in excellent condition. I couldnt tell you the last time I bought a flat fender with a full on complete snap in carpet kit, very cool!
