UPDATE: Price dropped to $7500.
(02/19/2020) This may be a former Navy 3B, though the plate has been moved to the inside of engine compartment. The jeep has a variety of updates.

“this is a jeep that is in real good condition. it has the following new: Windshield & Windshield rubber, Upholstery, Gauges Paint Job, Rims, Tires, all electrical wiring, Crankshaft pulley, Alternator, Starter Solenoid, Thermostat & Housing, Radiator, Brakes, Shocks, Steering control arms, all mirrors, all lights, Water pump, Also good turbo 350 transmission and transfer case ready to bolt in. .. and the motor is a good strong running chevy 283 v-8. Selling do to home purchase out if state.”
Looks and sounds pretty much all replacements parts. Looks like new body too. New engine. Steering looks like it still needs work.
Somebody unfortunately has a lot of money in a jeep that isn’t worth much.
This the classic “pig in a poke”.
Looks like its painted with bed liner as well 🙁
Nice Jeep! Nothing wrong with a new body. Shouldn’t have rust rot.
this proves the navy did have a couple of jeeps ? – I grew up on navy bases in the 1950’s and really didn’t see that many ..
I’ve seen Navy Gov plates for CJ-3As (esp Szekely APUs), DJ-3As and CJ-3Bs (and of course the USMC used M-38s, CJV-35Us, and M-38A1s). Maybe some wagons? I’d have to research the wagons to be sure.
