1953 CJ-3B Broomfield, CO **SOLD**
The front looks pretty good. No pics of the sides or rear.
“I have a 1953 Willys with a 327 Chevy V-8, 5/38 gears, three speed with overdrive manual trans. ALL ORIGINAL METAL. This was my dad’s for 40 years, now I must sell immediately! Rough shape, needs restored, but when she runs, she’ll get you where you need to go, and then some.”
1953 CJ-3B Brighton, MI **SOLD**
This CJ-3B has changed colors. It is now green? It’s been painted in the last 6 days! Old color on the right. New color on the left. The seats have been recovered too? Or, this is just a different jeep being sold by the same seller at the same price? Interesting ….

1953 CJ-3B Big Bear, CA **SOLD**
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was No Price.
It looks pretty good.
“Pretty cool old CJ3b with restored western snow plow. New hydraulics installed for plow. new AT tires, original ’60s mag wheels. Plows great. Starts and runs easy, but smokes like a chimney. Original motor with many years and miles with spare short block ready to rebuild. New paint about two years old. We’ve sold our place in the mountains, so I have no need for this cool toy any more. I am willing to trade this antique Jeep with plow for a Harley Davidson street glide, or police model electra glide or similar HD motorcycle.”

Jeep Collection for sale out of Colorado
UPDATE: This was $85,000 for the whole collection. I have found some related craigslist ads. See them below.
I’ve found a couple references to the sale of this collection. Anyone know more? Based on the pic to the right, these don’t appear in great condition. My guess is that this is over priced.
Here is a link to another reference at Hemmings, where I found the pic to the right.
Here’s a link to Hemmings that reads “WILLYS: elderly WW II veteran has vintage Jeep collection, 40s-60s, both military and civilian, must sell, best offer.”

1948 CJ-2A $11,500
This one doesn’t look like it is in great condition. There’s no reason to think it is worth $11,500.

1953 CJ-3B Richfield, Va **seller backs out**
UPDATE: Mike and the seller agreed to a deal, but the seller backed out of his agreement with Mike (hopefully, Mike found this out before he made the trip to see it). No doubt someone probably offered more.
“Here is my “53 Willys jeep, it has the original 4 cylinder motor with the 6 volt system. The motor, transmission, and transfer case are all in real good working order. The transmission has a very rare feature, it has the torque gear in it. What that is if you don’t already know, is the fourth shifter you can hopefully see in the picture. It more or less gives you a high and low range for each gear. Which is kind of nice for on the road. Because these aren’t made for speedanyway. The frame is in good shape,no holes rusted threw. The jeep is licensed with antique license which from what I am told they are transferrable. I believe they were $75, a one time fee.”
