UPDATE: Price dropped to $1400

(08/17/2010) It’s rough, but rare.

“Rare 1958 Willys Navy issued utility jeep. The jeep ran when parked several years ago. Motor and running gear are original and all worked when parked. The jeep still has the navy issue tag on the firewall. I have a clean title. This would make a great restoration project or a great hunting jeep or rock crawler. I work a crazy shift so please allow a couple of days for me to respond. I just don’t have time to work on this piece of American history. Asking $1400.00 OBO”

UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $2900.

Lots of work has been completed, but plenty left.  No mention of how the seller has identified this as a M-606.

“1966 Jeep CJ3B. This is a very rare military version classified as an M606 with factory 225 V6. Chassis has been completely redone. Everything has been powder coated and rebuilt. Factory rear Dana 44 with newer open knuckle Dana 30 front. Front and rear have 4.27 gears. Rear has a power lock. Front has a Detroit locker. All new bearings and seals. Transmission and transfer case have been completely rebuilt. Brand new Center Force clutch. All new suspension. Brand new power steering box. 225 V6 has been rebuilt. Brand new starter, alternator, headers, and misc. Brake and clutch assembly has been modified to a hanging pedal assembly. Also has a hydraulic clutch, PTO winch, brand new seats, plus boxes of brand new parts. Body has been media blasted. NEEDS TO BE PAINTED AND FINAL ASSEMBLY. Also has brand new tires and many other brand new parts. This is an extremely rare Jeep. It is a military version of a 3B but does not have any of the Willy’s stampings on body because it was built after Willy’s was sold out.”

UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $2200.

The seller is calling this a ‘Army CJ-3B’.  The 1945 GPW in the picture to the left of the CJ-3B is also for sale.

“I have an original 1964 US Army CJ-3B for sale. The body is in almost completely rust-free condition with the exception of the rear quarter panels (as pictured), which are also somewhat bent. The front passenger fender and step are bent a little bit. The floor boards only have surface rust. The front bumper is off of an auxiliary power unit jeep and was put on by another person. The engine is more than likely toast because the valve cover was removed by someone and never put back on. I have another F-head engine that I will include which is in a little better shape, but the oil has turned to sludge and it will probably need to be completely rebuilt.”
