UPDATE ***: Jurgen spotted this one. The ad for this jeep has resurfaced, this time in Ireland. Note the text claims the body panels has their “rivets” removed using a special tool. The panels were welded together via spot welds, not held together using rivets. It’s the same claim made in the text from last year: https://www.vintagestefano.com/for-sale
UPDATE II: A Craigslister reported that the seller is away and keeps raising the price as emails are exchanged. “Guy claims he is govt working but keeps asking for more and more info if you respond to his add…beware”
UPDATE: This jeep was on eBay a couple days ago. The seller listed it in College Station, Texas. The same jeep just popped up on a West Virginia Craigslist for only $4000. The text in the ad is similar to the text shown down below.
Here’s the current scam ad: http://huntington.craigslist.org/cto/5644379040.html
“1946 Willys VEC (Very Early Civilian) CJ-2A Jeep – Museum Quality Restoration
Offered is a 1946 CJ-2A that has undergone a frame-off, nut and bolt, rotisserie restoration. This is a very early civilian version, identified by square windshield plates, column shift, tool indents, ‘F’ script bolts in drive train, frame tag on the outside of the driver front gusset and three data plates on the dash.
I acquired this Willys Jeep CJ-2A from a Kingman, Kansas flying service in 2008 where it was being used as an airport tug. Everything was original, uncut, matching numbers and well preserved in several coats of orange paint. The frame tag, dash data plate and the Willys body tag are each numbered 17968 and correctly located. The motor number is CJ-2A 18464. The AMC numbers on the tailgate and front gusset are matching and both read 8620. Continue reading
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $8800.
This militarized civilian jeep looks solid.
“Army jeep.7 miles on odometer since restored .Will maybe trade for avalanche or caddilac pick up ,or mustang convertible.”
Runs and logs.
“Late 1940s Willys cj2a flathead skidder. Runs great. Goes anywhere. Hydraulic blade to stack logs and move brush. Needs brake work. I used it for hobby logging. Hate to see it sit. Cage is bolted on. Marine battery. Racecar switches. Electric fuel pump. Could be removed to make a Jeep project. Lots of options. Best serious offer. Also has set of forks for it. ”

“Clean TX title 1946 (2nd year of the civilian Jeep) willy’so CJ-2A. Run and drives. Has no breaks though…either need blead or master cylinder rebuilt. Tires hold air, fluids are good.

MB body or replacement?

http://joplin.craigslist.org/bar/5634528129.html
Still some work left. Appears to have an M-38 body? I can’t tell if there is a battery lid or not.
“90% rust free body. Rebuilt 289 needs a new starter to run. Needs finished. I just don’t have the time or desire to finish it at this point. I do have the title. Bring a trailer. It will be a neat little project when done. Make offer”
Runs, but needs works.
“I am selling my 46 willys cj2a flat fender. It has a chevy 283 v8 in it, t90 transmission, dana 18 transfer case, dana 25 front, and i’m not sure on the rear axle. The motor fires up and runs great and its driveable with working brakes and clutch, however the vehicle needs some work. The Water pump leaks bad and needs replacement, the t-case leaks oil and could use a new t-case input shaft bearing (little noisy at higher speed), also needs a front drive shaft. Other than those bigger issues just general upkeep like going over lights, brakes, and making sure everything it secured properly before trusting it for a trip and also fixing the windshield. I haven’t owned it that long so can’t tell you too much on it’s background, but safe to say it was someone’s hunting rig and they plated the back end of the body from the gas tank back. It looks pretty good actually and wouldn’t dent in easily when wheeling and gave a solid mount for the gas can holders and ice chest rack on the back. It also has a small back seat with storage underneath. I have a clean non-op title so no worries there.”
