Unusual Customized CJ-3A(?)

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

David Adams posted this oddity on Facebook. He was hoping to learn more about it. The jeep appears to be a CJ-3A that’s been modified for some purpose that’s not clear.  The side looks kind of like a Willys Quad; was that a coincidence?

Here’s one of his posts (there were several posts and I got several IMs about it).

1945 Photo of Jeep w/ Custom Cargo Bed

• CATEGORIES: Features, Old Images, Unusual • TAGS: This site contains affiliate links for which I may be compensated.

This photo was posted back in 2011 by Bill Grist. I can’t tell if the rear portion is a connected via pivot point (aka trailer) or if it is one solid six-wheeler. It’s a unique setup for sure.

• CATEGORIES: FC150-FC170-M677 • TAGS: This site contains affiliate links for which I may be compensated.

UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $4000.

(01/26/2023) Can’t say I’ve ever thought of putting an FC cab on a John Deere Gator.

“I have something you have probably not seen it’s a 2006 John deere gator With a 1962 Willys fc170 cab Welded to the gator it runs great it has lights that all work would make a great project to finish”

1967? Wagon JeepRod Sylmar, CA $1500

• CATEGORIES: Jeep Rods, Unusual, Willys Wagons • TAGS: This site contains affiliate links for which I may be compensated.

UPDATE: Price dropped to $1500.

(01/11/2023) This is an odd one. It’s listed as a 1967, but looks to be early 50s.

“1967 Jeep Willys Dragon. Great for someone who likes projects. I do not have more pictures and I am unable to get them due to not having immediate access.. if you want to see it you can make an appointment and my husband can meet you. Bought it as a project but I don’t have the time or money to put into it. Does not have an engine in it.. no title only bill of sale. I also bought an Diesel engine that has the transmission which I was going to adapt to the Jeep. But ended up not doing it. Selling separately Jeep selling for $3,500 Engine with transmission selling for $2,500”

Roger Martin spotted this unusual 3B on Facebook. There are only two images included, so there is limited info about it. That said, I’m leaning towards this being a home-brew rather than a prototype.
