It still needs some work.

“This is a very clean and insanely rust free original body ’51 CJ3-A. The previous owner did all the paint work, and engine swap. It is nearly complete. Needs some tuning and timing. The t-90 transmission needs to be serviced or rebuilt. I contacted Washougal Classic Jeep about this job, and it is a fairly affordable job through them, or even a fairly easy rebuild to tackle at home if you are so inclined. The seats have been freshly reupholstered. Soft top is older and has a few tears, but does fold, and all the zippers work. Has new electric wiper motors also. Fiberglass hood. One tire has a slow leak, but i think it is a valve stem issue. it doesn’t have any punctures that I can locate.

231 Buick V6 swap is neat and well done. Aluminum radiator, electric fan. I have had it up and running, but have not driven it.
I picked this Jeep up in a trade thinking I would finish it up and do some wheeling, but another project is calling my name more. Needs a new owner who loves these old jeeps to wrap it up and have a really killer little rig. Clean OR title. Currently runs but DOES NOT DRIVE. BRING A TRAILER. I won’t bring it to you, or do any of the work it needs for you. For sale as-is, where it is.”

1953 CJ-3A APU Salem, OR **SOLD**

UPDATE: **SOLD**

1952-cj3a-apu-salem-or5 1952-cj3a-apu-salem-or6 1952-cj3a-apu-salem-or7
“This is a solid 1952 Willys Jeep. It runs well and is drivable, but will need some brake work before it’s ready for the road. It has the overhead valve engine. The hood scoop is because it was updated by the military to the overhead valve engine from a flathead, and more room was needed for the carburetor.

I’m no expert, but here is a brief description of the APU conversion. They were converted by two companies for the military, O.E. Szekely and the Valentine Welder and Manufacturing Company. The APU stands for auxiliary power unit, and they were also called jet starter jeeps. The military converted these Jeeps for use in the Navy and Air Force. They were used among other things to start jet aircraft. There were a few variations, they made both 3 and 4 wheeled versions.

The right seat and factory toolbox underneath it were removed, and a pto was run up thru the floor towards the right seat well, to power the generator. I will attach a picture showing one, and here is a link to get you started:

(09/23/2017) This “1948” has a CJ-3A windshield and an early CJ-2A grille. I’m guessing it’s a bid of parts.

“1948 Willys Jeep most part all complete posting for a friend it’s solid very little rust and none all the drive trains in it motor will need to be overhauled”
