Unusual Ambulance Jeep

• CATEGORIES: Features, Fire/Police/Industry Vehicles, Unusual • TAGS: , This site contains affiliate links for which I may be compensated.

UPDATE II: It’s now red and for sale again: http://www.ewillys.com/2022/12/25/1950-modified-cj-3a-celestine-in-10000/

UPDATE: It appears this jeep has been re-themed into a resort vehicle.

This unusual ambulance jeep was shared on Facebook. I’ve tracked down an additional photo that shows it’s got a standard gas inlet on the side, so I think this may have been a CJ-3A.

This vehicle is located in Vincennes, Indiana (still there??). I’d really like some better photos of this. I’ll offer an Alaska Or Rust T-shirt and my everlasting gratitude if someone could get some more pics of this unusual rig.

1960 CJ-3B New Wilmington, PA $5500

UPDATE: Mike’s updated the price to $5500

1960-cj3b-newwilmington-pa1 1960-cj3b-newwilmington-pa2 1960-cj3b-newwilmington-pa3 1960-cj3b-newwilmington-pa4“1960 Jeep Willys CJ-3B with a great running original Hurricane engine. Everything on this Willys is in working order. It is road worthy with a good, clean Pennsylvania title, registration and antique license plates. This vehicle has always been kept in a garage and all aspects of this vehicle are in good or better than good condition except for, the body which needs work (There’s rust in the usual places) and it needs a new fly-wheel which I’ve purchased but not installed.

I purchased the Willys in January 2013 from the estate of its original owner. The original owner’s primary use was to plow his home and business driveways. My primary use was to plow my camp driveway and to pull a 700-pound Disc Harrow and Cultipacker combination unit to plant food plots for hunting. Because of how well this Willys operates I believe it has very low miles on it. The odometer has less than 16,000 miles but, the estate of the original owner wasn’t in a position to certify the mileage on their title transfer.

To my knowledge everything on this Willys is original except for the new parts I installed, which are:

2013: Front & rear brake cylinders, Pinion oil seal, Ignition switch, Muffler & Tail pipe, Tailgate Chains, Gasket set with oil seals, Rebuilt snow plow hydraulic pump, Suspension overhaul – leaf springs, shock absorbers, shackles, bushings, greaseable pivot eye bolts, & U-bolts.

2014: Roll Bar, Bikini Top, Rebuilt & Reupholster original Seats.

2016: Battery cables, Carburetor Rebuild Kit, 4 new 235/75R15 radial MT mud tires.

The Price includes: Door frames (soft covered doors), Frame for soft top, Myers Snow Plow, and Spare parts.”

1948 CJ-3B Auburn, WA $5900

• CATEGORIES: CJ-3B • TAGS: , , This site contains affiliate links for which I may be compensated.

UPDATE: Still Available. 

I suspect this is a 1948 CJ-2A with a 3B fiberglass body. It appears to be a Bobcat body based on the wide rim around the edge. Could be a good price.

“Willys high hood. Fiberglass tub and hood. Steel fenders, grille, and windshield frame. New gunmetal pearl paint. Buick 231 v6 with edelbrock carb and intake manifold. 3 speed transmission. Warn overdrive. Front disc brakes. Aluminum radiator. New seats. Soft with 1 small tear in back. 33’s with a lot of tread. Overall pretty nice rig.”
