UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $11,995.

Looks solid.

“This 1947 Willy’s CJ-2A was acquired in 2017 from a family that had reportedly used it for decades at a cabin near Fort Collins, Colorado. This jeep still has its original 1947 Colorado license plate as well as a current AZ plate and title.

Finished in gray, the Jeep is powered by the infamous 134ci “Go Devil” inline-four teamed with a three-speed manual transmission and a two-speed transfer case. The engine runs smoothly and starts effortlessly. 4 Wheel drive works easily and hubs lock smoothly.

This Willy’s could be used as a trail runner for hunters/shooters or even something just to cruise to the local store or car show on the weekends. It could easily be converted into a rock-crawlers dream. The decision is up to the buyer…

“his is a 1948 cj2a that runs, drives, and stops. The tub was totally destroyed with rust; the previous owner cut all of the rusted material out and replaced it with heavy gauge steel. The entire floor was replaced, the fender wells were replaced, the toolbox lid was welded shut, and both sides are hand made with heavy steel. It has an m38 windshield on it, new fenders, new shocks, new springs, New gas tank, been sitting outside so looks rough, Have original front seats, four original rims(one non-original rim), tires not so good. willys hood and grill.

The brakes were gone through when the sheet metal work was done. The right front frame has been bent up and needs straightened. It has a later willys l134 engine, might be out of a dj3a. Lights work. Engine starts right up but does smoke. I don’t know if the rings are stuck or not. The oil pressure is great until it gets warmed up and driven awhile, and then reads low. The transmission and transfer case shifts as they should. Good radiator. I was told that the previous owner built this to use on a farm, so did not care if it was original. This would be good for trail or everyday use. Please ask about the title. Craigslist email only. If it is listed, it is still for sale. Don’t need help selling it.”

The seller is parting out this 2A.

Matt’s helping a friend sell this CJ-2A. It does not have a title.

“I am listing this Jeep for a friend of mine. It’s a 1947 CJ2A that is mostly complete and will run with a little work. It ran a couple years ago and has been sitting since. It does turn over and sputter with some fuel poured down the carb. The body needs work as there are some patches in the floor and rust in a few spots. Frame is solid and the rest of the drivetrain is in good complete shape. As you can see in the pictures someone added some different seats to it. The Windshield is NOT included with the Jeep and it does NOT have a title.

The Jeep is located in Fordland Missouri, roughly 30 miles east of Springfield. He is firm on $1500 which I believe is a great price for a CJ2A that will run and drive with a couple hours of work. If you are interested give me a call or text and I will put you in touch. 8603043639. Thank you.”

UPDATE: Status Unknown. Was $3250.

It’s got some rough spots, but it runs. Seller uses the hand brake to stop. The hardtop (what’s left of it) may have been a Porter and Reed.

“I didn’t want to sell this but I have to pay for a new truck.

She’s not a show queen, but great around the farm, ranch, and trails. 1950s Willys F-head motor. Motor runs, clutch shifts well, and 4×4 works. Front brake hoses are cracked (available from vintagejeeps.com) so I’ve been using the hand brake. Tubes/tires hold air but are showing their age. Clean CA title on non-op.

More pics and videos available.

Recent carb rebuild and master cylinder rebuild. New spark plugs, points, and condenser. Timing still needs to be set. New Swepco motor oil and oil filter. Electric fuel pump. Headlights, brake lights, and turn signals work. Heavy duty galvanized hardtop. Doors are removable. Glass is good. Rollbar has not been bolted in.
