UPDATE: Price dropped to $1495.

(11/02/2023) This might be worth a look given the “minor rust” claim.

(08/09/2023) I’m not sure if the driver’s side has body filler or uneven paint.

“Got this Old 1940’s CJ2a Willys Jeep runs and drives along with a bunch of older 60s 70s 80s cars and trucks. All came off a farm miscellaneous and minor work needed for vehicles.”

Might be worth a look. Appears to have a Sears Deluxe top.

“Don’t know the year could be 47-49 Hasn’t ran in years but the frame and body are in great shape and definitely usable. Does not have a windshield frame ”

“Unknown year or whether it’s a CJ2a or CJ3a. I bought it for parts for another restoration. Don’t need it anymore. Definitely could be rebodied and be a good Jeep. Comes mostly complete.”

I believe this has a set of Huffman hubs, but the original toppers may have been replaced. It’s listed as a 1949, but the grille suggests an early year. That said, the hood and windshield aren’t original to the jeep, so the grille might not be either.

This has some unusual rims (or at least I don’t recognize them).

Listed as a 1945, it may have an early engine, but the rest doesn’t look VEC.
