"For sale is an extremely clean 1958 Jeep Willys CJ3B. This vehicle is a project, but is close to being finished. I was planning on building it this winter but I bought a new snowmobile and no longer have the funds to finish it. I am not in a hurry to sell and if I do not get a good offer I will hold on to it until I have funds to finish it. I will entertain trades for a 4x4 cummins or 7.3, backhoe or tractor, camper, tacoma or tundra or partial trades. If you have other trades in mind let me know, worst I can say is no. Cash is king.

About the Jeep:
It has a fuel injected V6 (out of a chevy S10) in it with a Sm465 transmission and a Dana 300 transfer case. The body has absolutely no rust and is one of, if not the cleanest 58 Willys I have seen. The drive train is all in and just needs drive shafts to be complete. It also has a brand new tilt column and power steering box which is in and ready to go. The wheels and tires are new. The tires are Pro Comp All Terrain m+s 33x12.50 R15LT. The rear end is all new inside and is a 538 with a spool. The front end is stock with a 538 as well.

I have over 5k in brand new parts that need to be installed which include:
- aluminum radiator and electric fan
- twin sticks
- soft top + all parts
- 15 gallon fuel tank with mounts and sending unit
- Corbeu seats

What the jeep currently needs is:
- a roll bar
- wiring harness
- plumbing
- pedals
- gages
- drivelines
- and a few other small odds and ends"

    Look at the high lift on that body, I realize it has re-ached spring lift, but what I noticed was the amount of distance between the firewall and the engine. The engine sits really low in the frame compared to the height of the body.

    I noticed that also Mike, also notice how low the fabricated transmission-transfer case mount is and very little room left in engine compartment for a radiator. Seems like not a lot of pre-thinking before installing the new power train modifications. Still a lot of work to be done for that price, just my opinion.?
