1946 CJ-2A Trencher Minden, NV $3500

January 9, 2023 • CATEGORIES: CJ-2A • TAGS: Trencher.

UPDATE: Back on the market.

(05/23/2022) It hasn’t been started for over a decade. It’s unclear why the rear axle looks like it has been pushed backwards.

“We bought a ranch a couple years ago that had a variety of farm/construction equipment and junk on the property. We’ve gradually sold off or disposed of most of it. We’ve been on the fence however about what to do with this bizarre little rig; a WWII-era jeep that has a trencher built onto it. Part of me wants to hold on to it and take it back to a stock jeep. On the other hand, how many projects can a body accomplish in a limited number of years? Thus, if the right person were to offer, say, $6,500. in cash, I would part with it.
I have not tried to start it, though everything else on the property that was parked 15 years ago when the ranch was abandoned, has been made to run..
We are well off the grid, east of Minden, NV. Phone reception is poor. If you have an interest, please text me and we can arrange a visit.
There is no title or documentation that we are aware of.”

“Hi there, for sale is my 1947 Willy’s Overland CJ2A. This little jeep has been an awesome vehicle, and doesn’t need much. It has the F-Head Hurricane Willy’s engine that was torn apart and completely gone through, along with the transmission and transfer case. Gaskets and seals were replaced and fresh oil throughout the drive train.

This will start on the first crank even after sitting for a couple weeks.

The differentials have fresh fluid and the manual hubs have been gone through.

The transfer case has a high and low range, and a front diff engage. Three speed transmission.

Newer drum brakes and it stops reasonably well

I drive it all over town and have had it on the freeway for short periods. It will go 50-55 fine, but should probably get some new tires if you plan on long freeway trips.

The Jeep is coated in a Linex type coating that is extremely tough. No rust on the Jeep, any old spots where cut out and repaired by the previous owner.”
