I’m not sure what the purpose of the cylinder between the engine’s heater inlet and outlets?

“Selling my Willys CJ-3A. Ran when parked 10 years ago. Would need some tinkering but should run. Last licensed in California in 2002. Bill of sale only. $2750 … Trades that have a higher value than my asking price would be considered.
This Would make an awesome father son restoration project.
Muscle Car Rare Patina Classic”

Listed as a 1953, the body is CJ-2A and the frame appears to have CJ-2A front frame horns. This also has a single lever PTO.

“I have a 1949 CJ3A Jeep for sale. It runs and drives, has a blue bonded title. I got the parts to start the brakes, but haven’t installed them yet. It’s not a rust bucket and would be fine on a ranch as-is, but it needs work. It would be a fun project for someone who has the room and the mechanical ability for a do it yourself project. I am firm on the price.”

UPDATE: Still Available.

(02/03/2022) This has an f-head and a big dash mod. The back of the windshield has been covered.

“1948 Willys. 4 cylinder motor runs great, already converted to 12V system. New brakes, fuel tank, carb, all lights work. Starts and drives. 4WD works. Needs cosmetics. Just put $5K into servicing the vehicle, had something else come up. You don’t find many of these around. Put some new rubber on her and drive her anywhere. Ask me for a short video of her running”

UPDATE: Still Available.

(04/21/2022) This may have a body lift.

This is worth a look.

“Again with a tear in my eye, I am offering my
1949 CJ3A Jeep that I have owned for 52 years.

This was my second Jeep and my family and I
won the most active family trophy in the Phoenix
Jeep Club for several years.

But that was a long time ago, and all good things
must come to an end.

This vehicle has many modifications mostly of the
wrecking yard variety which is the way we used to do
things back in the day.

So here is my fairly honest appraisal.

The Jeep has the V6 Dauntless engine
from a 1966 CJ5.
The engine has a polished aluminum
Ofenhauser manifold with a vintage
Carter AFB 4 barrel carburetor.

I still have the original 2 barrel manifold
and carburetor somewhere.
