Jeep CJ-3B at the Portland International Auto Show in Portland, Oregon, on January 28, 2006

This customized Willys Jeep was in the lobby and may have been the oldest vehicle in the show. Its exact year is hard to determine, both due to the customizing and the fact that Jeeps do not change much from year to year, but it appears to be a CJ-3B.
