1947 CJ-2A Spring, TX **SOLD**

• CATEGORIES: Engine This site contains affiliate links for which I may be compensated.

UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $500.

Engine spins.

“1947 Jeep Willys CJ2A Go Devil L-Head 4 cylinder engine. I don’t have any of the details on the motor because we just purchased it and we are going a different route with the drive train. Everything seems to be in place. It is not locked up and does turn over. We were told it ran a few years ago when we bought it but we never planned to keep it. Also, the tub is available if anyone needs parts to repair another tub. It has the normal rust spots and I didn’t want to deal with fixing them.”

Willys L-134 Superior, MT **SOLD**

• CATEGORIES: Engine This site contains affiliate links for which I may be compensated.

UPDATE: **Sold** Was $800.

I wonder if this was an industrial engine.

wwII-engine-mt

“Flathead 4 cylinder Willy’s Jeep Engine, WW2 vintage. This engine starts on its own with just being choked (no other starting aids needed). Oil pressure is good, and there are no knocks, or crankshaft “Chuggle”.
The compression of this engine is 75-90 psi, and it can still carry a load (it was the powerplant for a functioning welder). There are traces of olive drab paints on parts of the engine, and the timing cover has the rivet in it that wartime Willy’s had. The serial number of the engine is MB546645. The additional numbers on the engine block are 1-11, 638632W2 A, and NI-CR N2 ( designators for a nickel-chromium iron block alloy; for those of you who don’t know, this hardened block material is one of the reasons that these engine run forever).
I believe that this engine could be dropped in and ran as-is for quite some time, or it would be an easy one to freshen-up with piston rings and a valve job. I prefer cash as method of payment. The engine is currently palletized, and is available for local pick up, or shipping arranged by the purchaser. These engines are not getting any easier to find, so even if you have a good engine in your Jeep, it might not be a bad idea to have a spare.”

Allstate L-161 Orenco Station, OR **SOLD**

• CATEGORIES: Engine This site contains affiliate links for which I may be compensated.

UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $100.

Good price. It would make a great “Allstate” Jeep project.

“Pulled this Allstate L161 out of a CJ2A Willy’s Jeep. Definitely not original to the CJ2A. My best guess is this from a Willy’s Jeep Station Wagon or Henry J from the early 1950s.
The casting on the top: ALLSTATE, 6L161
Block Casting: 741878-2
It has run in the past; just been a project car for years and decided to go with a newer engine.”

UPDATE: **SOLD** Was Make Offer.

If this were closer, I”d be interested in it.

“I have a Buick v6 that came out of a willys cj 2a jeep. It had all the fancy high performance aluminum Offenhauser intake, valve covers (and other high performance bells and whistles) and Holly carb,. it was bolted up to the T90 so you can bolt it up to your T90 trans. If interested email me, come look and make me an offer. I have the motor mounts for the frame for it a well. I have been saving this for the past few years but running out of time, to many projects”

Bob Christy was forced to moved his event to last Sunday, which worked out pretty well, as the weather was perfect (unlike the rainy deluge of last weekend). Here are some photos, including a few with folks wearing Alaska Or Rust shirts:

I installed this in my ’47 CJ2A many years ago, then found out that it was a military engine. Figured it would be a better fit for someone looking to restore a GPW ”

“I’ve got 3 of them. Asking $200 for the lot.
#1 with block casting # 641087. It has been rebuilt, sometime pre-1975 as that’s when the shop closed. The serial #states it is a 3J motor though. Comes with carb, trans, tc, and whatever other accessories are attached. Serial # 3J-12582.

#2 with 641087 casting is this truck motor, which was kept indoors, said to have been rebuild and never used. Have not verified this. Still has paper stuffed inside the intake and exhaust ports. Serial # 2T-19742 I think. No trans/tc attached

#3 is 638632 block casting, serial # is J-87149. No trans/tc attached.”
