Listed as a 1950, I’d guess, based on that 0-9 speedometer, this is a 1956 or early ’57 DJ-3A.

“Here is a neat old 1950 willys jeep that runs fine. 2-WHEEL DRIVE. No rust. Check the pictures. $4,500”

UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $5500.

Bill shared this ad. Has a few updates.

“1957 jeep Willy civilian model, 2wd, original 4 cylinder 3 speed transmission on the steering column. Has been converted to hydrolic brakes runs great. I just use it to take friends around our property so it’s registered non op. Always inside and has windshield and snap on top.”

It is a project. Has updated engine.

“This is not a ridiculous or heavy project otherwise the word “project” is relative.
If I can get what I am in it so far, I’ll let it go. I did not lose interest in it. In my case, the problem is space otherwise I do not have another project needing this space but the wife wants to be able to park inside. We have a 3 door garage and so much STUFF in it. Happy wife/Happy life.
I am cleaning my garage and that’s why I could not approach it to take better pictures but I am just testing the waters right now and that could be good for a potential buyer to be the first to see it LIVE and hopefully ending up buying it because even though these kind of Jeep projects are overall in demand but with the bad pictures I provided, for now, I bet you it wouldn’t be appealing to many until I put some more and better pictures next week.
I bought this a couple of years ago from the widow of the 68 y/o owner who suddenly died of a heart attack. he was fixing it putting new drums and brakes which are still in the rear cargo area. The Jeep has 52,000 miles on the body but he put an old Chevy motor from the late 50’s in it which could be from a Corvette of those years. The seats are all intact with one little tear but since they are old, I think they should be redone. It has some surface rust and little rusted through only on the driver side floor panel.”

“I am selling my 1962 Jeep DJ3A project. It was originally a hard top mail jeep that was long ago converted to a normal CJ3A, with patches covering the original cutouts in the tub and an M38 windshield.

The frame is the original DJ frame (verified by stamping numbers) that has been fully boxed. It has recently been sanded, rust treated and coated. It has a square tube front bumper.

The Jeep was converted to 4×4 in the 70s, run by a couple owners, and then taken apart by the previous owner in 1981. The tub and all sheet metal was stored inside gathering dust until 2016 when I purchased it after he passed away. As a result of that, the tub is almost completely rust free, save for two small spots toward the back of the wheel wells. The original running gear (save for rear axle) is gone.

UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $2500.

Glenn’s selling his DJ-3A he named “Miss Willy”. Ann and I rode in it back in 2013, shortly before someone hit Glenn while driving it. Miss Willy was the 122nd one produced after our newest DJ-3A convertible “Paterson” (10366) and only 50 units before “Rusty” (10538). Like Paterson and Rusty, it too has the convertible body. Glenn’s hoping a DJ-3A lover will restore it.

“Miss Willy, a 2WD early production 2WD Jeep, was wrecked almost two years ago. Health issues have prevented me from rebuilding this California beauty. An almost perfect rust free body, nice floors and hat channels, a few scratches from flipping on its side, has frame, hood, windshield, fenders damage and probably some hidden problems. Brakes left 4 perfect skid marks in the wreck. Interior is usable and pretty. No Engine or Radiator included as I used them in another project. I shipped this from California awhile back so it’s an easy rebuild. Use your ideas and parts or I have a total of seven of these DJ3A’s to provide anything needed at extra cost. I can deliver this to you for reasonable cost as I’m going to The Great Willys Picnic in Kempton (Allentown) PA on June 11, 2017. The price is $2500 CASH. Open CA Title. Email for contact / details. Here’s wreck details from a favorite Willys Site:”

Runs. Based on the speedometer, I’d guess this is a 1957.

“Here is a neat old 1950 willys jeep that runs fine. 2-WHEEL DRIVE. No rust. Check the pictures. $4,500. FIRM.”
