This "high-hood" Jeep was essentially a CJ-3A with the taller F-head
engine fitted and a "hood-ectomy" to give clearance. Though it may have
been intended as an interim model prior to the intro of the CJ-5, it
stayed in production well into the sixties as a shorter-wheelbase
option. With only a few thousand a year built, many of them exported,
there are not many CJ-3B's around. A total of 155,494 were assembled in
the U.S. Strangely enough, they are still being built under licence in
India under the Mahindra nameplate. This restored 1961 CJ-3B belongs to
Derek Redmond of Kingston, Ontario. (Derek Redmond)
