“WILLYS 55 cj3b. It runs,stops ,steers,new wiring,brake lines,leaf springs,master cylinder,rebuilt Ross steer box,rebuilt Bell hanger,new exhaust,new brakes,new carb,new battery,new gas tank and on and on.

The pics shown on the trailer is how I bought it.In pieces.The under carriage was suppose to have been done,with plr.I paid 2800. FOR it.It wasn’t as stated underneath.Replaced all springs and hangers because they were rusted shut.Steering box was shot so I paid 100.00 in parts for new bearings and sector shaft.Bell hanger was unserviceable and replaced. Parking brake and cables installed.The entire wiring was gutted and replaced.Now all lights,signals and 4 way works. Gauges hooked up.

I have decided to sell because I am moving in early Spring and don’t want to trailer it 100 miles.

My purpose was to leave this WILLYS alone.To show its patina And multiple patches,dings,etc.It deserves that.The body is rough but looks cool as it is.There is a brand new gas tank ,a 200. Item installed.The WILLYS runs good and starts good.Brakes are excellent.
I was not finished with it when I garage it for the winter.There are a few details that the new owner can address.Like tires need replacement.A leak in the seal on the transmission.I was probably going to let it leak anyway because I don’t put that much mileage on them
The other issue is it has the l head engine instead of the F.Both are the same cubes but one is a flathead and the other a overhead valve.Not a issue with me.
The seats were taken out and sent to be redone.They are original and perfect.300.00 there.

If someone wants a cool WILLYS to cruise around this would be it.It ain’t going to win any tropies,maybe for patina.
I am into this for 3800. Parts included.A full summers work for free at that price.If you are mechanically inclined,have 3800.00 bucks,come and get it.

I pretty much think I invented the Low ball.Thanks, but I am all set with Pen pals.If you think you would like to see it and you are serious,please email me and I will get back to you asap.Leave your phone and name so I will know it is not a Craigslist troll scammer.Thanks for your time.”
