Labeled as a ’46, this has a ford motor and a GPW/MB Body (with a few side patches it seems.
“Up for grabs is this beautiful little 1946 Willy’s Jeep. This is geared extremely low and has had some lovely updating (paint, heavy duty tires, etc). Came from a little farm down near Fresno, and could potentially make a nice light duty little tractor for someone local (or a fun rock-climber recreational vehicle). Runs fine, starts right up every time, breaks and tires are in great shape, but the clutch gave out on us last trip we took, so that needs replacing. This is geared extremely low and maxes out at about 20-25 mph. Beautiful little collector’s piece of history. We bought this for $5K a few years back, but don’t have time, money, or space for it anymore. I think this is one of the old Jeepsters that has a Jeep body and Ford motor (collectible?), but you’ll have to confirm for yourself. Serious inquiries only, and you’ll need to tow it (it’s an easy light weight tow) since the clutch isn’t working. Selling as is. Registration and all paperwork is current, clean title. Email with questions or to come see it.”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $4000
(11/13/2010) The body has some dents on the driver’s side. It appears this has gone through some updates, such as a tilt wheel, roll cage, and updates to the suspension (the front appears to have a metal strip that probably helps strengthen it is some way).
“Good working condition,Buick V6 225 engine, Warren over drive, Original 3 speed transmission. Great for hunting and 4 wheeling.”

“Howdy Folks, Up for sale is my 1953 Willys CJ3B. It has original sheet metal and no rust. I restored it about 8 years ago. Everything was either rebuilt or replaced then. It has traveled about 2,500 miles since then. My wife and I trailered it behind our RV on our honeymoon. So this jeep has seen SanFrancisco, Meer Woods, The Bad Lands, Mt. Rushmore, Yellowstone, Napa Valley, and Senoma and much more. So its been around. It has a few chips and bumps, however still shows very well and gets allot of attention. It even won best jeep at the very popular ST. Marys annual car show. Beautiful trophy.
It is powered by an F head four cylinder and an manual 3 speed. It is a 4X4 with high and low range. It has been updated with an Motorola alternator, converted to 12 volts, and a solex carb. It has military ND tires that actually drive very well and wear very well. It runs just great and is fun to drive. It is painted Caterpillar yellow and battle ship grey. I would be willing to repaint it any solid color with a single stage urathane enamel for an additional $1,200. This would include everything but the frame and engine compartment. I also have US government olive drab. You may call me at five three seven one nine eight seven or email me.
I am asking $11,000. It is located in Holland NY near East Aurora. Email me for an appointment for viewing. And if weather permits a drive. I am not interested in trades, or consignments. In the photo you may see the exhaust strap broken, It has been replaced.”
Last night, Louis, who lives on Long Island, and I met up for a bite to eat. He suggested the meeting after hearing I would be on Long Island this week. Patient with my ever changing schedule, we agreed to meet around 8pm last night and had a fine time talking jeeps and life. I learned during our meeting that he has a very low mileage FC-150 and a 1965 CJ-5. He promised to share some pics with us.
So, thanks to Louis for taking the time to drive to meet me and for buying me some food!!
