1956 DJ-3A Convertible Woodstock, GA $5000

• CATEGORIES: DJ-3A This site contains affiliate links for which I may be compensated.

This seller has posted this convertible DJ-3A in several places on Facebook, asking questions about what it is, etc. My answers too the question of ‘what it is’ resulted in at least one commenter referring to me as an “idiot” (or something similar; I can’t remember the exact word) for not knowing what I was talking about ….. Ah, yes, the cesspool the FB can be. To the commenters credit, after politely calling out the author of that witticism, he did take the time to apologize. But, still …

With that in mind, I am surprised the seller is claiming this is an “all original” DJ-3A, instead of labeling it, as I explained several times to him, a DJ-3A convertible that’s been modified with four wheel drive.

“All original Willy’s dj3a solid frame passenger floor pan has some rust. Engine turns over and has spark and compression. Very rare jeep. Only 2,510 of them made in 1956”

1952 CJ-3A DeLand, FL $5400

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

Not sure how much value is here.

https://daytona.craigslist.org/cto/d/deland-1952-willys-cj3a-jeep/7438107274.html

“1952 Willys CJ3A Jeep. Solid, but needs lots of sorting out. Been in dry storage for over 15 years, but ran well and everything except brakes worked well when parked. Original flathead engine replaced years ago with Willys overhead valve 4 cyl. A great project that needs a new home. May trade for a nice gas powered golf cart. Leave your contact information and we’ll get back to you with details.”

Shane mentioned the existence of this video about a Bantam Fire Jeep Restoration by Duncan Rolls, who is well known for his other Bantam recreations (such as the original BRC). For some reason, the video won’t appear within the post, so follow the link below.

CycleKart Video

This throwback sport to early racing carts was sent to me by Bill. This ‘large’ turnout of these race carts happens only an hour north of me and, coincidently, is where I bought my racing jeep last spring.

Receiving a Ticket in an M-38

• CATEGORIES: Features This site contains affiliate links for which I may be compensated.

Bill shared this odd story of a jeep owner getting a ticket. The comments are odd/amusing, too. The writer claimed the jeep is a WWII jeep, but it looks like an M-38.
