“Split M-38 windshield excellent shape. This is a rare item! Authorized By Order of the Army, The Secretary of The Army. When it was broken during the Korean War it was transferred from a 1 piece two a 2 piece, to save glass. I know of only 2 frames in existence.”

1951 CJ-3A Sisters, OR $16,500

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

UPDATE II: Price dropped to $16,500.

UPDATE: This was for sale in Fresno. It is now for sale in Sisters, Oregon. I suspect the seller is a new owner and is now reselling it, given the limited description. Note that the plates in the pics from the 2023 ad and present ad are the same.

“Killer old 51 Willys custom. 327 w/turbo 400 auto trans. Runs great.”

==========================

(Previous comments, description and pics from 10/2023): This is a classic Fresno-area build with the oversize glass in the windshield, the doors, and more. It may include a soft top. I see no evidence it includes a Muller top.

Very clean Jeep CJ3a, 2nd owner, owned by the seller over 50 yrs.
SBC 350, Turbo 400, Spicer 18 transfer case, Warn overdrive 25%,
Dana 30 front, fresh Dana 44 rear
(new bearings, gears and LSD), Warn winch, big brakes, clean paint, good tires, and new dual fuel tanks. Upholstery and carpet is 4 yrs old with very little use.
Can be seen by appointment in Fresno CA.
You don’t see many like this one for sale. Odometer just rolled over last week, perfect starting point for the new owner”

Year? CJ-5 Aurora, CO $7900

• CATEGORIES: CJ5 • TAGS: This site contains affiliate links for which I may be compensated.

I thought this CJ-5 had a tux park badge, but I think it’s a little too short and in the wrong place (and it is a 1962 or earlier model). It does have a ventilating windshield and a classic Colorado bumper.

“Antique Jeep that’s been in our family for years, it runs needs a little bit of work.”

1947 CJ-2A + Tilt Trailer Benicia, CA $10,000

• CATEGORIES: CJ-2A • TAGS: , This site contains affiliate links for which I may be compensated.

Note that this jeep has the aftermarket angled dash, along with the expanded windshield and some other updates. It appears the tank is in the rear, with the filler in front of the spare tire.

1942 GPW Clovis, CA $7000

• CATEGORIES: GPW (Ford MB) • TAGS: , This site contains affiliate links for which I may be compensated.

Given this is from Clovis/Fresno area, the windshield could be one of the ones built by the two guys who did the Fresno mods.

(06/27/2023) Mark shared this 2A with IH branded Warn hubs and a custom windshield. This lacks a title.

1948 CJ-2A Salisbury, PA Auction May 4th

• CATEGORIES: CJ-2A • TAGS: , , This site contains affiliate links for which I may be compensated.

This auction will be held at 3276 Springs Hill Rd Salisbury Pa (At The Springs Shop) on May 4th. The top and rear cover look custom. At first I thought the windshield was a CJ-3A, but the round arms suggest it may have been a modified 2A or military windshield. The jeep appears to included a plow.

1949 CJ-3A? Greenwood Village, CO $37,548

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

Given the windshield and the rear bumper, I have to wonder if this wasn’t originally a Fresno area designed jeep. The interior dash has some custom aspects.

1962 CJ-3B Augusta, GA $9500

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

This runs and drives, but has floor patches and lacks a speedometer. This also has the ventilating windshield.

“Classic Colorado Mountain/ Trail Jeep with period modifications and rare factory options. 1962 CJ3B. Runs, drives and stops. The engine is an F134 Hurricane which has excellent compression, no smoke and vey peppy. Factory Ramsey 8000lb PTO WINCH. This Kaiser Willys Jeep has the rare “Safari windshield” which is a ventilating windshield. That allows the glass to be opened and allow air through while the windshield frame is up and in locked position. This jeep has an interesting homemade spare tire gate on the back, with Jerry can holder on either side. Look at the photo from the rear. All in all a really cool vintage jeep. All the hard stuff has been fixed on this jeep, just a little more work and this jeep would be perfect. I do have a regular CJ3B windshield, I’m willing to reduce the price if I can trade out the Safari windshield for a regular windshield. This jeep will come with a Georgia registration in a bill of sale I can also arrange delivery”
