1942 MB/CJ-2A Boise, ID **SOLD**

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

UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $1450

(08/23/2016) The chassis is from a CJ-2A.

“I have a 1942 Willy MB project. I do not have the time or space to complete this the way I would like it. I have all the components, hood, grille, fenders, tub, frame, wheels/tires, seat, fuel tank, steering shaft and wheel, axels, motor and transmission. The frame is from a 1947 CJ-2 I was modifying it to be like the 1942 frame. This is where I have run into trouble the frame is setup for the T-90 transmission not the T-84 I want to have on it. I also have another motor. It is title and registered. Engine does run. Everything is apart right now waiting for the right person to complete. ”

This poor, sad jeep. There could be some parts value here.I love the “well-rested” comment.

1945 MB Livermore, CA $4650

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

it’s sitting in front of a 4×4 shop in Livermore.

“This is a 1945 Willys MB flat fender jeep. The jeep is currently the centerpiece out in front of The 4 x 4 Shop in Livermore California. The jeep is far from perfect but was a runner when parked between the poles a year and a half ago. The jeep is currently registered in California though the photos show it with the New Mexico plate and it still wears its original data plates on the glove box door as well as the data plate on the frame. The paint job was done with the rattle cans for the grand opening of the store, and has been written on by hundreds of children with a sharpie marker . It’s actually a pretty entertaining peace . But unfortunately I am purchasing a new Willys shop truck so one of them has to go . The phone number listed is for the store and our store hours are Monday through Friday 9 to 6 and Saturday 9 to 3 . Or feel free to email and I’ll respond as soon as possible . The jeep will remain between the poles until a deal is struck .”

Katey’s is selling their beloved and trust trail-modified MB. It’s listed on the title as a 1942, but the serial number stamped into the dash plates of MB 383180 puts it as a 1944. However, the plate is obviously aftermarket. I’ve suggested she check for the serial number on the frame and body gusset. Contact her at katey@pioneermillwork.com if interested.

“1942 MB with original engine and drive train that has been used as a trail jeep. It is perfect as is or could be converted back to original MB if desired. It does have the matching numbers . As you can see all of the original plates are still on the dash. The body does have a couple spots of rust but not through . I do still have the original back seat that is in good condition we took it out when we put the on board air.

We mostly did 4 wheel drive runs in the jeep or Sunday drives it was by far the most fun vehicle we owned . We only towed by trailer if we took it long distance. I think it only has like 13,000.00 miles on it. We have made a few modifications to it. I have everything listed below that I am aware of.

Modifications made
Roll Bar
Spring over suspension
On board air
Tilt wheel.
Air Brakes
Warn winch”

Blaine forwarded this ad. It’s unclear if the seller still has this. Seller was cleaning property of a variety of vehicles and the ad notes it is only good for Sep. 3-5. But, you never know …

“Accepting all offers! Pickers welcome. Trying to clear my property of old vehicles (motorcycles, cars and trucks), tons of old tools, fencing (various kinds), bath tubs, scrap metal, ect. Too much stuff to list it all. Have clean titles to Subaru Legacy and Ford Bronco, no titles for rest of vehicles and ORV’s. Labor Day weekend only Sept. 3-5. If interested call for directions. Will not deliver.
Pick up and haul away. Anything and everything goes. Some items are yours for free if you can haul away.”

1945 MB? Morgan Hill, CA **SOLD**

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

UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $4200.

Has a variety of updates.

“I am selling my Willys CJ2 flat fender. Its a great little jeep I drive it on a regular basis. I have maintained it well as a daily driver and a wheeling/hunting jeep. It has some good modifications to it that make it great for 4×4 and hunting. It has the Buick 231 V6 in it for a lot more power. It also has SM420 4 speed with granny low gear transmission, this transmission is a heavy duty truck transmission that can hold up to any abuse you may want to put it through. It has a 8000 lbs winch on the front. Comes with a removable tow bar for convenience. Bucket seats for more comfort when off road and around town. Black Bikini top. I installed a radio bracket and speakers up on the roll bar to keep it all out of the way of shifting and away from potential mud and debris. Tires are in great condition with plenty of tread. Unknown mileage on the motor. I replaced the spark plugs and wires a couple years ago. Fuel tank was upgraded to a larger tank and removed from under the driver seat for safety concerns.

Needs: brake adjustment, I had to cut a bigger hole in the transmission hump on the floor and I never finished building a new cover for it that fits. It could use a paint job if you want it to look nice, or it could be left as is for having fun.”

1942 Canadian MB Duncan, BC, Canada $15,000 (CDN)

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

Jon spotted this one. It is an MB that was part of a Canadian contract. I assume the “T-18 transmission” is a misprint?

“To many interests and not enough time or space, so it’s time to move on to a new home and an owner that would like to enjoy it as much as we have.

Own a piece of Canadian History

It is a Canadian MB which is rare. Only 5000 were produced under this Contract Number CDLV505 out of the 650,000 jeeps built during wartime production. Most of its parts are there with the exception the 6 volt electrics which were converted to 12 volt. It comes with known history.

Includes lots of literature, and spare parts such as,

T18 Transmission, Front and rear axle assemblies, 2 Gallons of the correct paint, manuals books and many small restoration parts from the Ron Fitzpatrick in Medford Oregon
