Hi everyone I'm Adam. I have a 1949 Willys CJ3A. It has a 4.3 Vortec v6 TBI engine. 33" km2 tires and pro-comp rims.
I have always wanted a jeep but prefered the old school body style so when I seen it for sale I nabbed it up in spite of the many issues it had ( like NO brakes and the worst death wobble - yes it was an adventure driving it home but thats a whe nother story in itself lol). Well anyway I'm glad to be here.

Nothing like a BIIIIG jeep pic! Can't hide any details with one that size..� ;D ;D

Interesting headlight guards...can't say I have seen those anywhere before.

What tranny are you running?

That would be a fun jeep for the Colorado Fall Colors tour ...looks unstoppable.

Welcome to the page!

It has the original t90 trans and t18 transfer case with the 5.38 gears. The headlight guards i picked up at Oreilly but had to do some slight mods to the mounts. Thanks for responding and pleased to meet you
