Title: More rust
Post by: Hoosierhiker33 on March 09, 2014, 08:39:18 PM

My nephew just picked up a 3a today for $150.00. It is very complete minus data plates and serial number. It has a very nice koening half cab. Could some one help me guess the year by the serial number off the block? J141045.. Thanks!

Not a bad buy for 150.00

The engine is a 1947 CJ-2A motor.

Unless there is the number 3 before the letter J.

My '53 has an engine serial number of 3j14208x. The last number is too faint to read.
