1950 CJV-35U Bozeman, Mt **SOLD**

• CATEGORIES: CJ-3A • TAGS: , This site contains affiliate links for which I may be compensated.

UPDATE: **SOLD** Was on eBay.

The seller notes that there is also a hard top the winner can purchase for an additional $200.

“This is a dry Montana vehicle that was clearly kept out of the weather for most of its life, and the body is in remarkably good shape (we don’t salt our roads in Montana, so rust is not an issue as it is many other places). Many of the parts that make the CJV-35 unique are still on the Jeep, including dash plates, rear lift rings, front hooks,  hood snorkel cutout, headlight rings, and the specially-notched gas tank. The jeep appears to have had one repaint in a civilian green, and US government markings can be seen poking out from below (see photos). It looks like it was in use as an US Interior Department vehicle after its time in the Marines, but no other history is known. The motor has been replaced with a good-runing 1960’s era Buick (?) V6, but the rest of the driveline appears stock. The jeep runs and drives well, has good civilian tire on it, and good seats (are these even original, perhaps in black vinyl for the underwater driving?). Brakes, steering, suspension, tranny, 4 wheel drive all work well.

Any interested parties are encouraged to look at the jeep in person and drive it. All questions via email will be answered promptly. We have attempted to take as many high-res photos as possible so that the condition of the jeep can be assessed. This is sold “AS-IS” and “WHERE-IS”, and absolutely no warantees are made concerning the vehicle or its condition, either expressed or implied.

Again: restoring a military jeep is a wonderful but time and money-consuming task. If you’re going to make the investment, WHY NOT RESTORE THE BEST AND RAREST? One thing’s for sure – you will be the only one in your club with a CJV-35. Thanks for bidding and good luck!”

• CATEGORIES: CJ-3A • TAGS: , This site contains affiliate links for which I may be compensated.

UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $6000

(04/08/2011) This is a stock CJ-3A with some rust issues. It runs and drives.

“This jeep has been in my family since 1982. My grandfather did a ground up restore in 1987. He and I used it to for hunting in NY. I had it shiped down here from NY two years ago in hopes to restore it to 1987 condition again. But I don’t see that happening any time soon. I hate to sell it but i guess its just the sign of the times. I have done my research online and know alot about this jeep and know their value. The jeep needs some body work. It runs good. Its been sitting for over 15 years and all I did was put a electric fuel pump on it a battery, new plugs and wires..It took a few mins but it started right up and ran just like it did 20 years ago. I drove it around the farm a few time with the kids and parked it behind my shop where it has sat now for two years. The interior is in good shape but needs a drivers seat.I have the seat but it has a bad rip in it so i took it out the passengers seat is in good condition. I have removed the gas tank due to the 20+ year old gas that was in the tank (and it still ran with that gas in it). I was planing on installing a ploy tank but never did. The jeep also needs a brake job. I do have a new master cylinder for it that also needs to be installed. The motor is a flat head 4, with a foot button starter that still works good. All gages are still in place and all work but the speedo. The hearter even still blows. And the head lights still work ..I did put a new tire when i got the jeep due to the dry rot..the other tires are still somewhat ok… If your are SERIOUS about this jeep , email me and I will send you more detailed pics of it cause i can only put so many on here..”

This appears solid.  If it has been doing a lot of plowing, i would check those front frame rails.

“1950 Willy Jeep CJ3A. Runs and drives awesome. Decent tires, 4wd works perfect. (Blows right throug 12+ inches of snow!) I have had the jeep for over a year. I bought it and put a new water pump on it. It has a rebuilt engine in it. Pulled the motor when we pulled the transmission to inspect. Transmission full service and seals. Still a flathead 4. It was sitting in a barn in Cedar Falls since 1982. Minimal rust in the floors where the wood brace got wet and ate out the support and floor. New master cylinder, Wheel cylinders and brake shoes. Partial new exhaust and new correct muffler. Civilian Jeep that was originally greyish blue…I bought it orange and painted it with camo green. Fun little jeep to drive around. Only reason for sale is losing storage at the end of the fall. Let me know if you have any more questions. 3000 OBO.”

UPDATE:  Eagle Eyed Bob recognized this as a CJV-35/U rather than a CJ-3A.  **SOLD**

This is supposed to have no rust.

“I had this listed as a 1951 cj 3a. A guy from New York called me and informed me of what I really have. It’s a 1950 Willys CJV-35, and it is for sale. Since it is so rare, I have increased the price to $5500. There were only 1000 of these made in 1950. Check it out on the internet. I am not kidding All original. Flat head 4 cyl, 3 speed tranny, 2 speed transfer case. At one time this vehicle was green. Then some one painted it an ugly salmon color. I have removed a bit of the paint (a mistake), and in places it comes off easily. In other places it is on there pretty good. It runs great and has no rust, no kidding. The tool box under the pasenger seat is solid, as are the floor boards and the floor under the rubber mat in the back. It comes with a roll bar and high back bucket seats and a tow bar. I took these three items off the vehicle, for they are not stock equipment. It has a heater that works. Unfortunately, someone put an AM radio in the dash ( a really dumb move in my opinion), but they did an ok job of it and it works. ‘.”

Also, it is still 6 volt, and it has the plates on the dash from the Willys Overland Corporation. They’re pretty cool. Come check it out.

1951 CJ-3A Deadwood, SD **SOLD**

• CATEGORIES: CJ-3A • TAGS: This site contains affiliate links for which I may be compensated.

UPDATE:**SOLD** Was on eBay

There’s some value here, though plenty of work left too.

“This Willys CJ3A has not been ran for about 7yrs but was supposedly running when last parked. (it is froze up now-dosnt have a breather so maybe moisture has gotten in). It has very little paint but also very few rust HOLES.(mainly below right door and on the floor by right door). I bought this jeep from my cousin and due to all its PATINA I was planning to make a RAT ROD out of it but recently came up with a couple of medical issues. He cannot find the title but we can get a LOST TITLE very easily if desired. The frame is not rusted out any where that I could find. Springs and suspension seem OK. The cab (mfg by Koeng Iron Works of Houston) has lots of surface rust but is actually in pretty good shape. The doors have crank down windows (not sure of there condition as I didnt try to operate them). The winch has been removed. All gages look to be good shape and was supposed to be operating with the excepion of the gas gage. the emergency brake seems to work. The tranny and transfer case lock up in all gears and the differentials roll freely with the wheels jacked up. The right window has a crack at the bottom. Window rubber looks reusable. The seat frames and springs are there but the padding is gone. The box is dented but not rusted thru. The radiator, fan and shroud look to be in good condition. (I have another that I KNOW is in good shape). The engine has a magneto on it which the previous owner (my cousin) was put on to make better starting in the winter (it was used for snow plowing at their ranch and never ran in the summer), The original distributor is included. Also I have a power-take-off which is in great condition that I will include. Can provide more photos if desired and can possibly deliver for fuel costs.”
