“Original WW2 photo (3.3 x 2.25 inches), slightly curled from age. No writing on the back. The sign reads “Here lies the body of G.I. Joe – He broke his neck while on the go – His nickname was ‘Speedy’ his last name Burney – He’s had it, brothers – His Sentimental Journey”.”

UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $12,000.

I can imagine the seller put time and money into this rig.

“1961 Willys Jeep Pickup truck. Restoration began with a near perfect rust free vehicle. Project was finished more than 20 years ago. Only 11,784 miles were ever put on the truck. And that was occasional driving for the first 3 years. Mostly to and from cars shows, truck shows, and parades. Then it went into storage for a few years. And for the last several years, it’s been parked under a shed. Time for a new owner.

“The CJ3a has extra leg room and belly room, so it is much more comfortable to drive!

Up for sale is a 1952 Willys CJ3A serial #31961 that is finished as an MB style WWII Army military Jeep. This jeep is ready to be driven and can be enjoyed today. It is great in parades, errands, and road trips. . You get lots of looks and high fives. This is a Fun Jeep! I take good sound jeeps, fix and upgrade where it needs it, and finish them to military. This Willys is street legal and safe with clear Kansas title, left and right blinkers, tail lights, headlights, olive drab seat belts, and brake lights. The blinkers and seat belts have been added to increase the safety of the vehicle, especially when driving the grandkids around.

This press release was part of a package of press releases and photos from eBay. It’sappears to be a press kit of some kind. There are four press releases total, each varying in size. This 14-page version A is the largest.

What is “pulling stone boat”? Apparently, the post-war jeep could do that better than the war-jeep (page A-6).

This first CJ-3B focused ad was published in the April 09, 1953, issue of the Barre Daily Times out of Barre, Vermont. It demonstrated how the Universal ‘Jeep’ “Pays its way Fast!”. It was paid for by Vermont-Willys, INC.

This next ad appeared two weeks later in the April 21, 1953, issue of the Sentinel out of Carlisle, Pennsylvania. It was sponsored by the William Peiper Garage.

Maury shared this recent article from Motor Trend o the history of the jeep. The author does a pretty good job with it.

This was a drag jeep that’s been made street legal. I’m not sure why it is listed as a 1962.

“For sale is a very nice and fun to drive 1962 Willys Panel Wagon. spent most of its life as a drag car on the Coles County Dragstrip before being returned to the street. Very strait body, no rust or dents. Very reliable, I have driven it to the NSRA Nationals event in Louisville KY the last 2 years. No problem running 70+ mph down the interstate. It has a .030 over 350 crate motor, 400 turbo tranny, 9″ ford rearend, power steering. Always gets a lot of attention and you wont see another one like it at the car show. Trades considered”

UPDATE: **Status Unknown** Was $10,000

Tom shared this early Slat MB.

“1941 Willys MB Army Jeep / Runs Good / No Rust / Rare Early ’41 with the Slat Grille”

Seller took this as part of a trade.

https://minneapolis.craigslist.org/hnp/cto/d/la-crosse-1948-willys-jeepster/7191824523.html

“1948 jeepster, in good condition, took in on trade but thinking of selling, just don’t have much time, frame totally under coated, mustang 2 font end with disc brakes, ford 9″ rear with possi, chevy 350 with a blower, turbo 350 transmission. It’s a very cool old car, still needs some finishing, stock seats have new covers, needs a new top, door panels and some finishing, paint has some scuffs but I like that look, possible trades for same value, family boat plus cash or part classic car trade considered 14,500obo”

I don’t recognize this hardtop, but there’s quite a few rivets for a non-production top.

https://detroit.craigslist.org/wyn/pts/d/dearborn-heights-willys-jeep-steel-top/7192597944.html

“Original steel top & doors. MB, M38, CJ2 & 3, maybe others. From a CJ3.”

Might be a good price for the right person.

“ALL stock moter turns over sweet little jeep. Does not run. No title. Lady died 25 yrs ago. Ran 6 yrs ago. No hurry to sell. Obo”

Lots of parts.

https://kalamazoo.craigslist.org/pts/d/grand-junction-ww2-jeep-ford-gpw-repro/7193950326.html

“For sale is a parts lot I acquired recently
-Rolling chassis with repro Ford GPW Frame and Tub, no thru rust that I have found.
-What I believe to be an original Hood, Grill, Windscreen, fenders, and axles
-Pre war (1940) L134 in need of rebuild
-Post war L134 in need of rebuild
-T-84 and Dana/Spicer 18 T-case
-Post war radiator
-Lots of driveline, engine related and misc parts, unsure what is military and what is civilian/postwar”

I am guessing that this is a 2A with a rebuilt body. The body looks re-skinned in parts and rebuilt in others and patched in still others.
