Description of 1961 Jeep CJ CJ3B

Ignore eBay's ridiculous shipping calculator, it quotes $598 to Albuquerque NM (216 miles) where I ship trucksweekly for $150. Contact me, I can arrange nationwide shipping for far less money.

Jim cell 6O2 435 2llO Call me with questions or cash offers.

The perplexed look on peoples faces when they see 4 shifters sticking up through the floor board is priceless. I've owned this Jeep for nearly 5 yearswith no plansto ever sell it but witha family of 4 (+3 dogs) I never drive it. On top of that we're building ahouse at 8100 ft on the mountain and without a garage I can't stand to see it sit outside anymore.This Jeep was professionally built, no "hack work" on this rig. Adult owned, never abused, I've only driven it to town and on the backroads around the lake where I live.

Options and Equipment: Less than 1000 miles on rebuilt Chevy 283 V8 (60psi oil pressure) rams head manifolds, dual exhaust (very quiet) aluminum radiator, power steering, boxed frame, 9000lb winch, 32" Procomp tires, lift kit, springs, shocks, rear locking diff (can't remember if front is locked) superwinch hubs, dual fuel tanks, 3 speed transmission, twin stick transfer case with gear splitter overdrive between them giving you a choice of 12 forward gears and 4 reverse. Custom built rear bumper with receiver hitch and hand made aluminum swing outcooler rack. The high back seats are covered in heavy duty marine grade vinyl, full roll cage, 4 point harnesses and more that I'm forgetting.

This Jeep starts, runs, drives, shifts and stopsexcellent, very tight, will run down the highway at 60 mph dead straight withone finger on the wheel. Everything works as it should including the parking brake. This Jeep deserves a garage, it deserves be taken care of and appreciated. If you're looking for something to abuse, beat on or "rock crawl" please don't buy this Jeep.

Been sitting in storagefor nearly 3 years, I just drained both fuel tanks, filled w/non ethanol gas, went through the carb, new battery, replaced the plugs, changed the oil, filters, tuned up etc.

I have a set of aftermarket Bestop soft doors and top frame that needs newcloth as a packrat ate through itwhile in my shed.

My Hi Lift jack andvintage shovel are not included in sale.

Though inexcellent shape, this is a used58 year oldcustom built Jeep and as you would expect there are imperfections, scratches, dings, wear, etc.

There is a little rust spot under the paint on the drivers floor board, I can see a little bondo under the paint in the bed and there some old rust in thehat channels underneath (see photos) SW Colorado is very dry, it has not changed in the time I've owned it but it needs to be noted.

The paint needs to be cut and buffed, has oxidation and a few scratches but will shine up very nice.

The transfer case is wet from sitting, as where the brakes, checked and filled everything.

Throw-out bearing makes some noise sometimes, usually when its cold.

I really cant think of too many things to pick on, this is a great rig and will make someone very happy to own it.

Please call me, I'm 49yrs old, jeans, boots, down to earth, have 2 kids, self employed, work for a living kind of a guy, I won't B.S. you or waste your time.

Jim cell 6O2 435 2llO Make a reasonable offer and you will ownmy jeep.
