Introduced in 1944, the Jeep CJ ran through several iterations until 1986, when it became the popular Jeep Wrangler. Now that’s why this vehicle bears several familiar cues, not just to the Wrangler but the Jeep family as a whole. After all, it’s the first of a legacy, the first civilian Jeep, which is why its called a CJ. Born out of Willys-Overland’s need to create something for the civilian market after World War 2 ended, the Jeep CJ would see well in excess of 1.5 million examples produced. The brief for the CJ was, surprisingly, tougher than that of the military Jeep it was based on. After all, military Jeeps tend to have lifespans of months or in tough areas, weeks. Meanwhile, the Jeep CJ would be put to the test by hard-working American farmers, blue-collar workers and small business owners, and expected to last for years with minimal maintenance. That’s why you’ll find many Jeep CJ examples existing to this day, as a testament to how well Willys built them. This 1954 Willys Jeep CJ-3B from from Naches is one such machine, and it’s received a fine restoration to bring it up to the condition we see today. This machine could be yours if you wish.
Exterior and Interior
Wearing a suitable gray suit and bearing all badging including the iconic WILLYS script on the front, this 1954 Willys Jeep CJ-3B is definitely a head-turner. Its short wheelbase, chunky off-road tires and black canvas roof are all symbolic of the plucky spirit that the CJ series embodies. Yes, these are vehicles that don’t mind getting dirty. You’re guaranteed a rollicking time, after all. The interior of this 1954 Willys Jeep CJ-3B features black leather seats and is as true to original as possible. You won’t find digital distractions or climate control, instead you’ve got an airy, open experience that takes you closer to nature as you drive through it with verve.
Engine
This 1954 Willys Jeep CJ-3B bears a 265ci V8 that’s likely not its original engine. Paired with a manual transmission and transfer case, you’ve definitely got more power and torque than the original 134ci Hurricane four-cylinder mill. We also see an aftermarket carb, MSD plug wires, and an Edelbrock air cleaner. So, you can enjoy your drive to the fullest.
