DJ-3A Surrey/Gala Guru Bruce Agan Passed Away
I’m sorry to report that Bruce Agan passed away after a short fight with cancer yesterday in Iowa.
We first exchanged emails in 2009. He generously shared a large amount of DJ-related info for eWillys readers. Over the ensuing years he became a go-to-guy for anything DJ-3A, Gala, or Surrey related. In 2012, he started the site http://www.jeepsurreygala.com, which contains a large amount of DJ info. I had hoped to stop by and visit with him during one of our trips, but I hadn’t got the chance.
So, we bid a farewell to our good friend. Perhaps he’s already busy discussing the finer points of the Surrey with Elvis. Here’s the surrey that Bruce restored, one of several jeeps he owned.

“Up for sale we have a 1963 Willys CJ-3. This vehicle is in need of a total restoration but will make a great project or parts car. The jeep has not run in years but was running well when last parked. Please feel free to call or text with any questions. More pictures available upon request.”
1974 CJ-5 Marshfield, MA $5500
UPDATE: Price dropped to $5500. Looks like a great price.
The seller indicates this has a government plate, so it may well be a military vehicle.
“1974 Army Jeep that is rare and the last of the Jeeps made for the military. Jeep has been lightly used with a new clutch, brakes, muffler, fuel tank , and canvas top. Lock out hubs for front wheel drive. Original Army brass nomenclature plate.

1945 CJ-2A Lake Lena, FL $14,000
I don’t see anything to indicate this is a 1945 2A. More likely a 1946 given the triple dash plates.

“Willy’s Jeep parts miscellaneous items 1951 -1953 years”
1952 Wagon Adel, IA $2500
Not sure how much value is here. The body, which needs work, is sitting on a Toyota chassis.
“This 52 Willys is sitting on a modern Toyota truck chassis giving it power steering and disc brakes as well as a tilt steering wheel that comes with it. It has been chopped 5″. This is a very solid roller that is going to make somebody a badass hot rod. Again, it is a roller (no motor/transmission). I can deliver it if necessary for a handle (thats the big bottle) of Jack Daniels or a Gallon of moonshine. rat rod, project, jeep, vintage”

It has just been a porch pretty for a year. We are playing with the fact to cut it in half and stretch it and drop a big block in it and make a bad ass trail rig out of it. We’d figured Id throw it out there for sale 1st.
