I need some help. I have a 1960 CJ3B that needs a hood, grill and fenders. I found a 1950 3B that is being parted out. My question is, will the body parts from the 1950 fit the 1960? |

Gumpster, The 3B began production in 1953, so the one being parted out isn't a 1950. That said, the fenders, hood and grill should fit your 1960 just fine. |

gumpster543, As you know the Civialian Jeep (CJ) under went constant changes called progression. (1945 - 1985) The model CJ-3B was mass procuced here in the U.S. from 1953 through early 1965. If you want a Willys stamped hood and grille to fit your 1960 vintage you will want donor parts from a 1953 through 1962 model CJ-3B only. |
