“Own a piece of American history! I have a 1949 CJ3A Willy’s Jeep for sale. The ONLY reason I am selling this Jeep is because I have too many projects going on and I need to pay some bills off. I bought it a few years ago and started on it replacing everything because it was not running.

Here is a list of what I have done so far. New starter, new alternator, new battery, new cables, new points and condenser, new coil, new wiring, new ignition switch, new water pump, new plugs, new relay, new fuel pump, new fuel lines and fuel filter, new radiator hoses, new horn, flushed radiator, pulled and cleaned fuel tank, rebuilt carburetor.

The leaf springs and exhaust system had been replaced before I got it and are in good shape. What I have not done: I have never did anything to the brakes front or back axles and transmission. The Jeep has the original flat head “go devil” 4 cylinder engine in it and it fires right up and runs like a top. The front windshield is cracked and I have a part# for it.

It also will not shift through the gears. It has high and low and you can drive it. It will need a new sincronizer which I was told runs about $60 to fix it so it will shift. You can still get every part for these jeeps. I have a book that goes with it and yes I have a clear blue Texas Title for it. This Jeep was kept in a barn and is in pretty good shape for its age. I bought it because it would be an excellent project and head turner when it’s finished. I can also send a video of it running.”
