Vehicle Description
The long history of the Jeep and Willys brand is very impressive
and several variations to this proven 4x4 over the years makes
these highly sought after and impressive on any terrain you went
after. These were developed for the military and then
civilian/agriculture work throughout its life cycle.
This very nicely restored Willys CJ 3B with the F4 Hurricane 4cyl
engine is one of the best of the early models. More power and
torque for the driver and even had the ability to almost achieve
100mph on the road. The iconic taller hood was a dead giveaway for
this engine setup from the previous CJ 3A version. This is a much
more valuable setup and still considered part of the flat-fender
family of the Willys. Vehicle was produced in Toledo, Ohio and
found its way down to Costa Rica at some point where it was treated
to a full restoration from top to bottom and in remains in fabulous
condition.
Vehicle was stripped down to bare metal, all trim work removed and
electronics then properly restored with fresh paint, trim work,
fittings and powertrain and drivetrain. Our quick test drive
revealed a peppy and enjoyable vehicle to drive for any event, car
show or two track you prefer. The vehicle comes alive with a simple
twist of the key, the lights come on with ease and the upgraded
turn signals function properly along with horn, power driver wiper,
and gauges (minus gas gauge). The brand new soft top and fittings
snaps into place with ease and the removable soft doors function
properly to give you some protection from the elements if you
choose. The 3spd manual transmission shifts with ease and the hi/lo
transfer case performs properly along with the ability to lock in
or out the front axle. Period correct Jerry can and passenger side
mounted spare complete the look along with freshly reupholstered
front bucket seats and rear bench seat complete with lap belts.
Only 646 miles have been logged on this Willys since restoration
and the upside will continue as period correct military vehicles
from this era are in strong demand across the globe and finding one
in this condition along with the rarity of its setup will not last
long. This is your time to step out from the crowd, strap on some
gear, load the grand kids and storm a parade in style and be the
most popular dude at the event!
