UPDATE: Price dropped to $5990
(05/24/2010) This appears in good shape. I suspect the body is a repro body.
“I am selling my 1949 CJ3A. It has a Buick 231 V-6, Warren overdrive, rebuilt T-18 transmission, NDT tires, power steering, and 11” brakes. It has a military grade canvas top (as shown; no full top).
Items that have been replaced within the last few years:
Brakes (including shoes hardware and wheel cylinders)
E-brake handle and cables
Clutch
Water pump
Steering column
Shocks
Flywheel
Bikini top
Motor mounts
Battery
Electronic ignition/ distributor
Most of the wiring and lights
Fuel pump
Fuel tank (RCI racing cell)
Tires (5 NDT military)
Carb (2bbl)
Hoses
Horn
Timing chain set
Additionally, it has new custom exhaust (really nice not some hack job).I have a lot of fun with this Willy’s and it runs/ drives well. For those not familiar with these old jeeps, they are very capable on the trail and are great to run around town. They are not equipped to drive on the freeway as they are geared very low (5:38 pinion gears).Like most vehicles of this age, it is not perfect. It has minor oil leaks and is one of my ongoing projects.
Thanks for looking.”
