UPDATE:  Was $7500. **SOLD**

(12/15/2010) Looks nice. Strangely, this doesn’t have a tailgate or a fuel inlet, but it does appear to have drain holes at the step.  So, I’m not sure what this body is.

“1948 Willys Jeep, totally restored. Red with white Bestop. Runs very well and 4 wheel drive works. cash only.”

1947 CJ-2A Hickman, NE $3000

• CATEGORIES: CJ-2A • TAGS: This site contains affiliate links for which I may be compensated.

UPDATE: Price dropped to $3000.

(01/18/2011) This has a fiberglass tub.  It does need some work.

“Pretty solid Jeep. Motor runs very good. Top is very good. 31×10.5 mud terrain treadwrights. only downside is the fiberglass tub. Needs very little done to it. What it does need are spring bushings and shackles which are pretty cheap and the storage bin that the passenger seat is mounted to. Was also converted to a 12v system but I think it still has the original generator, so it has a little bit of a hard time keeping a charge in the 12v battery on short drives. has original wheels. I have doors also. I just never mounted them, because I saw no purpose. $3000 obo.”

1946 CJ-2A Cedar Park, Tx $3500 + trailer

• CATEGORIES: CJ-2A • TAGS: This site contains affiliate links for which I may be compensated.

UPDATE: Mike notes in the comments that the pintle hitch was an option for the CJ-2As and bolts right up.  So, this could be a CJ-2A frame with a pintle.

The serial number suggests this is a little late to be a VEC CJ-2A.

“1946 Willys Jeep CJ-2A (VEC- very early civilian) SN#76584. Kept in garage. Not working but small repairs required. Trailer included”

Auctions Kings sells a Militarized CJ-2A for $16,000

• CATEGORIES: CJ-2A, videos • TAGS: , This site contains affiliate links for which I may be compensated.

Pete spotted this upcoming suction on the Discovery Channel’s Auction Kings Show.  Turns out, the episode is on the web. It was also for sale here for $20k.

My question is, does the auctioneer have any fiduciary responsibility to be honest?  Because, to say “this is restored perfectly” is simply dishonest.  On the other hand, the seller didn’t know what they were buying, so they shoulder some blame for spending $16,000 (plus any other fees) on this one.  It does look great, just not as historical as implied.

1946 Flattie Kirkland, Wa eBay

Some  unique customizations on this nice build.

This vehicle is titled as a “1946 Jeep”(which would technically be a CJ2a)  but has been built with a new Willys GPW steel tub as well as Ford running gear. Windshield is from a CJ3a. This was a custom build to replicate an over the top version of a GPW jeep. It was done professionally and is in incredible condition, mechanically as well as cosmetically.

Engine: Ford 302

Transmission: Ford D5

Transfer Case: Dana 18

Axles: Dana 44 front/rear

Edelbrock 1405 4 barrel carb

New Genuine Jeep Willys metal Tub, with fiberglass fenders.

Gorgeous Paint, soft top is in good codition, but leaks through two small gaps in front.  I don’t drive the vehicle in the rain so it never bothered me but the one time I got caught in a Seattle summer rain storm.

Lifted with 35″ Tires on Aluminum Wheels

Custom Bumpers front and rear

Frame is painted a nice Burgandy color. See pics.

Other:

The vehicle has heat. Two heaters, actually. One under each seat.

The vehicle has working turn signals. All gauges work.

Other goodies:

Optima Blue Top battery

Mallory ignition system

Mileage: About 8,000 miles since resoted. I drove the vehicle on a 250 road trip and it did great. Vehicle tracks straight down the freeway at 60 no problems.

Vehicle is 100% new or restored. Beautiful example of a restored Willys.

Note: I am a collector, not a mechanic. I have owned this vehicle and have had no problems with it what so ever. This vehicle is is terrific running condition. Everything works on the vehicle to the best of my knowledge.

Other: Vehicle has three paint flaws. See last three pictures below. They are VERY MINOR and are NOT on the body of the vehicle. The one on the interior windshild is not rusted, it looks like it in the picture, but it is not. The body paint is gorgeous and only has a couple chips on the door sill where your foot would hit getting in and out. Pictures speak a thousand words. Vehicle is being sold as-is, where-is. I will help arrange shipping on this side, but you’re responsible to get it to you and to pay for any shipping charges. There is no warranty on this vehicle express or implied.”

1948 CJ-2A Adams, NE **SOLD***

• CATEGORIES: CJ-2A • TAGS: This site contains affiliate links for which I may be compensated.

UPDATE: SOLD.  See comments.

(10/24/2010) It’s got some rust, but drives.

“1948 Willys, 32,721 +/- on the odometer. Guy who had it before me parked it in his garage thinking he would do some body work. Sat for 12 years. I got it thinking I needed another project vehicle. Wife decided I didn’t. Dumped some gas in it earlier this summer and it fired right up. Drove OK but brakes need work. Tires are good including a spare on a matching wheel. Looks to me like everything is there with the exception of a seat-bracket and seat. The lights/trim wipers, steps, etc are in a box. Body has some rust (see pictures) but the frame and drive-train look solid and straight. I have a clear title for this jeep. With a little elbow grease this winter I think this has potential as a fun summer ride. Asking $1,100.00 but would entertain any serious offer.”

1946 CJ-2A Chisholm, Mn eBay

• CATEGORIES: CJ-2A This site contains affiliate links for which I may be compensated.

The seller has listed this as a 1945. Someone tried to correct the seller within the question area, but it didn’t seem to change the mind of the seller.  The serial number of this is #72596, making this a late 1946 CJ-2A.  The seller claims the tool indents were filled in, but they should not even be there with that VIN#.  However, the drain holes do appear filled in, so is possible there were indents, but then the VIN is wrong.  Of course, there isn’t a column shifter and the data plate is incorrect for a 1945  There are other issues as well.  Note where the emergency brake is located.  Here’s a few shots of how a 1945 CJ-2A should look from the CJ-2A Page (Jim Coffed’s Jeep).

“But this is a nice 1945 Willys Overland. Has nice MB steering wheel. Some rust on underside appears to be untouched for the most part. It does have original drive train. Solid original exhaust. Has new parking brake and cable. This is an amatuer restored vehicle and is about 95% complete with slight modifications like gauge panel folds down for easy access to fusses and under dash. The heater and driver seat are not original. Engine has been rebuilt. Tank heater w/ thermostat. Front windshield is fully operational like new. Passenger side window is cracked but both pieces of glass are original. Turn signal lenses are glass not plastic. Has Brass screws in Transmission and master cylinder cover so they dont rust solid for easy removal when maintnence is needed. Back of jeep is loaded full of parts. Some of the parts included are carburetor, driveshafts, new u joints still in box. 6 volt headlights and bulbs. Master cylinder and kits wheel cylinders and kits. Spare fuel pump, regulator, and distributor. Also an assortment of spare original gauges, windshield latches and wing nuts…”

(09/23/2010) There might be some value here.  The cage appears to be a little too tall to sport a normal top.

“I am selling a 1946 jeep willys 4×4. It has a ford v8 289 with an auto three speed tranny. It has an advanced adaper kit that has the original dana 18 t-case. It has a edelbrock 4 barrel carb, with a torkker intake, and headers. It starts and runs rough, but it needs the front brakes redone, because the original drums just don’t cut it.
