It looks like it has a replacement body.

“This Jeep runs, drives, and stops great. The Jeep body does have some patch work and rust through in places, but as is you could daily drive and use it for fun or pleasure if you’d like. The frame looks great compared to most I see and very original. The engine runs smooth and strong and is the original 134L flathead 4. The original T90 3 speed transmission shifts smoothly. 4 wheel drive operates as it should. The top is in good shape overall. The button snaps are pulled loose in a few places.

I will be adding to this Jeep here and there while it’s listed. I plan to build the Jeep according to the body tub. Basically back into the M38 military style if it doesn’t sale soon.

This Jeep also has a clear title and can be driven on the road.

If your looking for an original classic Jeep that you can hop in and drive where ever you want then here you are An original early flat fender Willys Overland Jeep.”

UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $3000.

Includes a trailer. It may be worth a look.

“This is a 1953 Willys CJ3a. It has been a project of mine almost 10 year but it is time to sell. This vehicle is far from stock I have a throttle body injected 4.3 liter V6 installed with a rebuilt 4 speed SM 465 truck transmission attached to the dana 18 transfer case. The transfer case has been updated with the hardened intermediate shaft and modern conical beings. The brakes and clutch have been updated with Wilwood master cylinders and slave cylinder. New clutch as well. The front axle is a dana 44 with disk brakes, chromoly axle shafts and an ox locker. The rear axle is a dana 44 from a newer model CJ I installed to handle the larger 35 inch tires I’m running. There has been a power steering conversation completed, and a triangulated 4 link with fox racing shocks in the rear and both drivelines are custom for the application. The top, tub, and seats are all new along with a new fuel tank and steering column. There are a few things that need to be finished on it but I used it as my daily driver for several months and can be driven home. I have far more than my asking price put in this vehicle, but I am not sure how to place a value on it. 7000 is where I will start the negotiation on it, but reasonable offers will be considered.”
