1946 Willy Jeep CJ-2A – $4,400 Bangor, PA

1946 Willy Jeep CJ-2A – $4,400 Bangor, PA

Neat little CJ local to me, not a horrible price had a cool top and plow set up, says the plow was added later. It definitely needs some work but from the bulk of photos the rig for being a NE PA rig is pretty solid. I can’t confirm this is a true ’46, but says it has a PA title that’s a ‘49. Mentions has the soft top frame.

Now lets not miss that very cool CJ/M38A1 in the background, now that has some cool graphics and a plow, cab, it’s really neat, that would be on my trailer for my building and to run back and forth to the Ace Hardware in town, that is really neat looking. Also one of those most likely LT1 Wagons, this would be a cool visit and lots to talk about.

Information from seller:

1946 Cj-2A Willys ……..Asking $4,400.00 cash only……..entire brake system replaced, tires, gas tank, re-wired and added electric fuel pump…..I added the plow, it wasn’t a plow truck and was only used a few times…….titled in my name though title indicated a ‘49, numbers match and serial number indicates a ‘46. Perhaps a wartime circumstance or motor vehicle mistake. I’ve owned 12 years and is registered and insured…..I bought from a friends estate who owned it for many years……frame solid and body good for its age…..

Willys Overland speedometer – $40 Hampden, MA

This is a great piece, super clean and great patina, I would not over restore this one, clean it up, make it look nice, but don’t over do it and ruin the age and beauty of this one. It’s a good one.

Clean looking, speedo needle is intact, gauges look clean. Lists as a 1948, its 0-80 so could be on the money there. It’s a neat piece someone should swing by and save this one. It would be in my pile for sure. Glady pay you Tuesday for a Willys Speedometer today. I have a rig that could use this one.

Information from seller:

Willys Overland speedometer {1948} with zero miles showing . Some wiring still attached Great for early jeeps ,or Rat rod

Willys MB Military WW2 Jeep Front and Rear Axles with Springs – $175 Lowville, NY

I’m not well versed in MB parts, so happy to get an assist and update the post, they are full floating axles so they could be the part. I know the MB stuff had some different adjusters for the shoes at times, there are some different looking shields on the front axles on top of the knuckles.

Let me know what you think.

As far as Axles go, these are nice looking for sure worth $175 all day long it’s a good deal if they are half decent inside. I don’t see the risk here for the price load and go, then figure it out at home, pop the covers and see what’s awaiting, I can smell it now, wonder why they don’t make an “Old Axle” candle scent, or even Old Spice folks out there, there is an untapped market here! (You don’t have to wonder why we will never match Dave in number of posts when I get down the rabbit hole on a set of $175 axles and the $80 Speedo, but these are decent looking parts to save!)

Information from seller:

Original Front and Rear Axles that were removed from a 1944 Willys MB WW2 Military Jeep. Leaf spring sets and steering tie rod assy. are included. $175 for all. Thanks for looking!

XM818 5 Ton Tractor Truck 6×6 – Auction

Here’s one you don’t see every day (well, frankly I’ve never seen one before, so…)

XM818 5 Ton Tractor Truck 6×6

Location Apollo, PA 15613

These 6×6 trucks were made in many different configurations, beginning in 1951 (and yes built by Kaiser as well as AM General in later years). Lots of good information about the series here on Wikipedia, and also on SteelSoldiers.com (a great website by the way, if you’ve never visited).

Here’s a bit on the XM818 from Wikipedia:

“Tractor trucks were used to tow semi-trailers up to 37,500 lb (17,000 kg) with 15,000 lb (6,800 kg) on their fifth wheel. Semi-tractor/trailers have to stay on relatively flat ground, and are not rated for full off-road use. On improved roads they could tow up to 55,000 lb (25,000 kg) with 25,000 lb (11,000 kg) on their fifth wheel.”

Pretty significant towing capacity(!) and although the bid is only ~$300 currently, it is listed as non-running, so I wonder…how would you ever get this home?

This would definitely be a cool project if you have the time, knowledge and space! (And I’m betting you’d have the only one when you show up to your local “Cars and Coffee”!)

I have plans to be at this one, taking the red Wagon, which was at one of the older Picnics when it was held up the road, the previous owner drove it out there, so it’s making another appearance this year and we are excited to be back out there for this one.

Pre-1970 Willys vehicles are eligible to win door prizes and great Raffles are available for everyone. The Jeep Field is open for showing all more modern Jeeps. There is plenty of space for selling your spare parts in the swap meet area. Bring your Willys memorabilia and interesting parts for show and tell. Be sure to arrive early to have enough time to see all the Jeeps before the door prize winners and raffles are announced at 2:00 PM.

The Picnic will be held on the grounds of the

1955 Willys CJ3B $18,000 Rigby, ID

Not much description, but if everything is new and rebuilt, you cant build this for the price listed, maybe they have a build book you can review the process of what went into this.

If it’s someone you know, happy to post more information.

Interior looks great, motor looks fresh, some paint details need some attention, maybe rework the rear lights there are some nice options for those around. If Im going that big would be nice to have some flood light off something like those in addition to the extra safety stuff for brakes and turn signal.

The factory lighting at times is such a small target now a days.

Information from seller:

Motor rebuilt professionally. New everything.
