CJ3A 

Willys CJ3A (1949-1953)

After the success of the CJ2A "Agri Jeep", Willys Overland came up with the idea to make a Jeep which wasn't just for the farmer, but for the urban people as well. The result was the CJ3A which became the first Jeep which was also made on foreign soil. It was a success, which resulted in  Willys coming up with the "High Bonnet" or the CJ3B, which too was a success, not only on American soil but worldwide too.

The CJ3A featured a stark resemblance to it's predecessor, the CJ2A except for the fact that it featured a vent on the single piece windshield. Also it had a shorter rear wheel well. Like the CJ2A, it too had additional accessories for farming ( hoe, plow, etc) on order.

The CJ3A was powered by the "Go Devil" which was the same engine that powered the 3 generations of the Jeep. It had a 3-speed T-90 gearbox and a Dana 18 transfer case. It also had a power drive option which was available since 1951. The CJ3A  was made from early 1949 to 1953, when Willys Overland was sold to Kaiser.

Some things i would like to point out about this Jeep are:

Windshield with Vent

1. It had a vent in the windshield, which is not seen in earlier Jeeps.

2.It had a T-90 gearbox.

T-90 Gear box with Dana 18 Transfer case
