My son and I just acquired a 1949 and a 1952 CJ3a. They are complete but lots of work ahead. We are just beginning to put the two together into one usable good one and who knows what we will have left for a second one. I have never been on a forum before so I look forward to asking questions and sharing the build as we proceed. We are in Pendleton OR and bought one in SE Oregon in the desert and the other on the Olympic Penninsula in WA.
