UPDATE: Price dropped to $4500.
(02/09/2015) Seller bought this a few years ago and replaced a variety of items.
“Very clean Willys with 36,000 original miles, less than 100 miles in the last 12 years.
I bought this from the original owners grandson who had it parked in a garage for the past decade. Runs great. Really great compression in all cylinders. He claims that the engine was rebuilt 5000 miles ago, but he didn’t have any receipts. I have just finish getting it all together and now I need to sell it. I don’t think I have driven it more than 20 miles since all of the improvements.
Here is most of what I have done.
Rebuilt carburetor, rebuilt starter, changed to 12V from 6V, replaced almost all hoses, replace all brakes and brake cylinders including Master cylinder, complete tune up with new points and wires including valve adjustments. new battery and cables. New fuel filters and fuel hoses. New gas tank. installed a new inline fuel regulator. replaced valve cover gasket, oil pan gasket and all other drive train gaskets, new clutch pilot bushing. rebuilt steering column and more. I have pretty much rebuilt the whole thing and have tried to keep it as original as possible”

Get past the paint job and a handful of corrections, this is probably a pretty nice jeep…
What year did they quit putting willys on the hood of a 3B? As the one in Canada doesn’t have it on the hood.
Bye the way that’s a Whitco top on this one. Now that rare!
1962. They used up stamped parts until they were gone…
Thank you Todd.
Not a bad jeep. Some people should also have to fill out surveys before being handed a paint can
Has great potential. There’s a lot of things that should be off limits!! Spray cans, $ 149.00 paint jobs! 🙂 Good morning Chris. I was lucky on my 59. For what I paid. It has its upside and downside! lol Can you rebuild vac fuel pumps and original speedometers ? Its says 28 K
There are rebuild kits available for the original fuel pump. I do like those duel stage fuel pumps. I just installed one back on my 59. Works so much better than electric pumps. The wipers work great with it and they don’t bog down during acceleration. I’m starting to take apart and clean and refurbish the original speedos too
