The Museum of Alaska Transportation & Industry is located in Wasilla, Alaska. It’s a far drive for most people to see the museum, but it does have a rare CJ-3B Fire Jeep. I think that’s as good of a reason to visit Alaska as any other!

Ron alerted me to the museum and shared these photos he took. Note the CJ-7 Mail Jeep CJ-8 Scrambler, which I think looks pretty good. Thanks Ron!

See all the pictures Ron took here

1961 CJ-3B Madison, OH $2800

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

It’s a project.

“Here is a heavily modified old willys. Just about everything on it has been upgraded. Obviouslt the whole rear has been replaced with a tubular cage. I made it to offer great rollover strength but still mimic the classic body lines of the original willys, hence the curved door openings and the opening to fit the original willys tailgate.. The suspension uses Wider YJ leaf springs all around. reverse shackles up front and a 3/4 elliptical system in the rear, which allows for major flex. The old screw type steering was replaced with a heavy duty Saginaw box and beefed up custom linkage all over. All 4 wheels have been converted to disc brakes with stainless lines. the drivetrain however I kept stock, first, because of the nostalgia factor of keeping it willys, Second, because it has proven itself. Back when this was a normal jeep I could plow tons of snow and not slow it down at all or drive down the freeway at a fair speed. I have not started he engine in a few years but I’m sure it will crank over.
As I said, this is a project so it needs finished. Off the top of my head, it needs driveshafts put in, sheetmetal installed as the floor and sides (optional) brake lines run, pedals installed, amongst a few other things.
I am losing out big time asking what I am for it, but we all know you never get what you put into them. I just need to clear out some projects. You can call or text me at 4 four O-31 nine- O 47 O”

Fresh Turbo 400 trans brake and stall converter, with a slap shifter.. Dana 20 xfer case attached to a Tom Woods drive shaft. Built Ford 9″ rear end. Front is a Dana 25 and it works. I never need it except to turn. Body is in good shape and looks sharp. Tires are in excellent condition. Aftermarket steering column also. Goes down the road very well for the year. It does need some minor work to finish.Crack in the front windshield. No top. What you see is what you get. The engine is built very well. Lunati cam and roller rockers. Aftermarket heads. This jeep is fast and fun. Ran a 4.82 in the sand. I will add more pictures as weather allows. Or send privately. Thanks.ask any questions. Looking for a new project. Time to move on. I will not ship, I will assist in helping a shipper with the shipping. I give no warranty what so ever. This is a built fast fun jeep. Hard to find high hood in good shape.”
