(02/05/2015) Looks like there’s some value here.

“Clean and clear Arizona Title. I have both the VIN plate and shift diagram plate that go on the dashboard. Location and Contact info at bottom of post.

I am not parting this out. This sale is for the entire vehicle and it’s spare parts. Most of the parts are present. The only known missing parts for a complete vehicle are: driver and passenger seats/frames, windshield glass, and all rubber hoses, seals, seams etc. I have not done any work on this so I cannot say if the engine/transmission/axles are any good. I bought it in Phoenix. I heard it came from northern AZ.

UPDATE: **SOLD** Was on eBay.

This is an interesting 3B. It’s got a replacement tub. The side bar has an unusual swoop that must act as a step. Labeled a 1951, it might be a CJ-3A chassis?

“You are bidding on a 1951 Willy’s Jeep.  It was purchased approximately 3 years ago as the foundation of a custom off-road/rock crawler vehicle.  It has nearly new heavy lugged off road tires, custom built roll cage with side skids.  The cage and skids were professionally built.  The jeep body is in very good condition for being 64 years old.  It has a custom gas tank with custom seats (see photos).  The vehicle was scheduled for a complete ground up custom build.  A death in the family forces sale.  It was running and was drove to the spot where it is parked.  It has the Commando OHV engine.  No Battery … sold as is.  Front axle needs differential work.  Some other parts are included, top bows/doors/ and a variety of other small parts. ”

UPDATE: Was $1500. **SOLD**

(06/25/2014) This doesn’t run.

“For Sale – 1955 Willy’s CJ3B – This vehicle is being sold as part of my Father’s estate. This vehicle is a 1955 CJ3B body on a 1946 CJ2A frame. The vehicle does not currently run. My Father had the main assembly done on the vehicle, but it does need the gas tank plumbed and wiring done to it. I’m also pretty sure it needs driveshafts done for it. Here are some of the components for it that I can recall –
Dana 30 front axle, Ford 9 Inch rear axle, 33×12.50 BF Goodrich At’s, Ford 302 Small Block (rebuilt), Ford T-18 Tranny and an Atlas T-Case. Please contact me and I will answer any questions as best that I can, or setup a time to look at the vehicle yourself. Thanks.”

(09/26/2014) It runs, but needs work to be road worthy.

“61 Jeep CJ3B. Engine and drive train are ok but the body needs replacing. Mileage on odometer is 42,000 and believed to be correct. This Jeep has spent the last 23 years sitting outside. Will start right up when the carburetor is primed but is not roadworthy. The frame and underpinnings are solid making this a great restoration project. Other than the 31″ rims and 2″ lift it is original. I have new brake lines and carburetor that will convey. All parts are available through KaiserWillys.com. To many projects so this one has to go. Is registered and I have a clean title. “

(12/17/2014) Engine is stuck.

“Howdy Folks, Up for sale is whats left of a 1953 Willys CJ3B. Its someones doodle bug project. Not sure what his plan was. What I do know is it has a F head engine that is stuck. Has a three speed transmission attached to a high low transfer case. The frame is bobbed just in front of the rear arch and the rear axel is welded to it.

What is interesting is the two unusual power take offs. One on the back of the transmission and another dozer gear running off the parking brake drum. I have a pallet of spare parts that go with, like extra head, transmission, transfer case, some sheet metal.”
