1952 M-38A1 Santa Cruz, CA $2000

• CATEGORIES: M-38A1 This site contains affiliate links for which I may be compensated.

It’s a project, but appears to have potential.

“Selling my project 52 willys with a 283 small block chevy v8 and a 4 speed manual. My transmission went out in my truck so I’m forced to sell. I bought it from my uncle 1 year ago. It was sitting in his back yard for 10 years. sence then i rebuilt the carb. Replaced the rubber sections of fuel line and cleaned the hard lines. New fuel filters. New starter and alternater. Radiator was flushed at a shop. When I was running it i had it hooked up to a fuel cell. I have the fuel tank but the inside needs to be cleaned.
Still needs brake work and there is no clutch pressure. Its on 33s and a little lift but the tires are old and cracked. The floorboards have some rust.
It’s a project that’s worth finishing. ”

There were several articles that made the June 1955 issue of Willys News worth purchasing, even if the price was higher than I wanted. Case in point is the gravity dump box idea below. Perhaps someone can recreate this rare mod?

1946 CJ-2A Tulsa, OK $6800

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

It is missing some front parking lights.

“For sale is a 1946 Willys CJ2a. This is first year jeeps were offered to civilians. It drives great, four wheel drive works, hubs lock out, engine is smooth. All work has been professionally done (have receipts.)
Listed as one of the three most important weapons for winning World War II, these jeeps are legendary. This one has been updated to feature very high quality and comfortable front and back seats from a 52 Jeep, all updated wiring (12v) and everything necessary to make it a reliable vehicle. It also has spare tire mount on the passenger side, rather than on the back.
This jeep will also come with all if the original steel wheels and functioning military spec tires. I have tires on it from a Scrambler, just because it’s a more comfortable ride. The jeep will also come with a t-bar so you can tow the jeep behind any vehicle with a 2″ hitch.
Can be easily outfitted to be a military parade jeep, or beefed up to be a monster. I’ve had a great time driving it around as is… It will go just about anywhere.
I get stopped everywhere I go, by guys with beefed up rubicon JKs, by military vets, or just people who remember these types of jeeps when they were growing up. People are really interested in a 68 year old Jeep that can still get around. It’s a conversation starter to say the least.
Text, email, or call to schedule a time to come by and look at it. ”

1990 CJ-540p Mahindra Boyce, LA **SOLD**

• CATEGORIES: Other 4x4s This site contains affiliate links for which I may be compensated.

UPDATE: **SOLD** Was on eBay.

“Most parts interchange with Willys CJ-3B, the Mahindra CJ-540P 4WD is an updated, long wheel-base version of the 1950’s Willy’s CJ-3B design that was built under license by Mahindra in India from the 1950’s until 2011. Although it is a few inches longer than an original CJ-3B, it is still a 2-door, flat-fender model (only has a little more legroom than the original front and back seat layouts). This Jeep is a 1990 model, free title, licensed in Louisiana, unrestored, no rust, NEEDS A TUNE-UP but it runs-stops-drives, 4cl willys hurricane engine, 2 speed transfer case. Need to see – Mahindra did update some of the CJ-3B stuff such as it now has a hydraulic clutch, 3-point seat belts (front only), turn signals, and other MINOR updates/improvements over the 1950’s vintage Willys design. Otherwise, it’s like they were built back in the 50’s! See pics – this vehicle is in very good un-restored condition.”
