UPDATE: **SOLD** Was on eBay.
Seller’s description looks thorough.
“Up for auction is a 1948 Willys CJ2A “Universal” Jeep. It starts every time with a simple pull on the choke and a twist of the key, even after sitting for months and moves on down the road like it should. This is a joy to take for a ride and always turns heads and gets honks and waves. The only reason I am letting it go is I need the garage space and I couldn’t abide keeping it outdoors, even for a night.
When I purchased it from the family of the original owner recently, the vehicle had undergone an almost complete restoration including painting of the body, frame and motor, replacement of the wiring harness, new vinyl on the seats and new rubber on the wheels. It retains its original motor and transmission. Additionally an overdrive kit was added. It was repainted in its original Luzon Red with Universal Beige trim.
**SOLD** Was $6498
“Great 4 wheeler! Orange & white with black & grey interior; four reclining bucket seats; new carpet; Four speed with granny gear; winch runs off PTO; custom wheels with off road tires. Huge tail gate for lunch on the trail. 4 High & Low work great. Runs great! Priced to sell!”
UPDATE: Price dropped to $400.
(05/05/2014) Clutch needs replacing.
“Probably restorable but not by me. Just put a new head gasket in…good compressoin now. That was one of the reasons I parked it 2yrs ago, the other reason was the clutch and that still needs to be replaced. Rubber is good enough to tow someplace close.”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $4500.
Listed as a CJ-3B, this jeep has a CJ-3B VIN plate. I’m not clear what else is part of the original CJ-3B.
“Up for sale is my CJ3B Jeep. 10k in new parts on her. It’s a V6 3 Speed 4×4. New Tires, New Top, has a brand new bikini top to go with it. Runs excellent. Motor was rebuilt a while ago, along with a transmission rebuild and transfer case rebuild. Rhino Liner in the interior and exterior, very clean. Has explosion-proof gas tank, brand new seats, removable rear seat. Center console is weather proof and lockable and has a radio in it. Starts easy, runs great. My loss is your gain. 9800 miles showing on the odometer, not sure if it is true or not.”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $3300.
Looks like the seller was testing paint schemes on the windshield frame?
“Hunters special! Starts right up, runs great, original jeep 4 cylinder.
Includes new bikini top and tow bar. Heavy duty winch.”
There’s some value here. Neither project runs.
“I am selling two early CJ2A projects with a ton of extra parts. There is enough parts to build both jeeps and have extras left over. I have a rebuilt Buick V6 with the adaptors and motor mounts that cost me almost as much as I am asking for both jeeps. There are titles for both. One has the PTO on the trans. One is an early column shift. There are extra hoods, fenders, tailgates and more. One has the frame for a soft top, and one has an aluminum hard top with doors. As you can see in the pics, these are projects that do not run. Willing to consider trades.”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $1500.
It’s a project.
“Jeep Willys CJ3a. Brought up from Virginia. Flat fenders are getting hard to find. Great raw material for a restoration. Easy to work on. Come check it out. Contact Tim Mon thru Sat, days”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $650.
“This is a complete L-Head 134 cubic inch flat head 4-cylinder “Go Devil” engine. Fits M-38, MB, and CJ-2A, CJ-3A. Should also fit a GPW. It was a military engine, rebuilt in 1953 by 229th Ordinance Base Depot, TEWOS (Plate attached). Turns over easily. The block is good with no cracks, but the cylinder walls are pitted.
This engine is complete with carburetor, oil filter housing, air cleaner, fan, distributor, manifolds, crossover tube, carburetor linkages, etc. I may be willing to sell separate parts off this engine if no one is interested in the complete package. Also, I would be willing to strip the extra parts off the engine if someone only needs the block. My asking price will be adjusted depending on what parts you need. Please email me (via Craigslist) with questions or requests.
I have many other Willys parts, such as Dualmatic lock-out hubs, CJ-2A soft top plus frame (rare white, like new), CJ-2A or 3A soft doors, 6-volt generators and starters, etc. Send me an email if you need any flatfender Jeep parts.
Historical note: The 229th Ordnance was based in 1952 and 1953 at Tomioka, Japan, between Yokohama and Yokosuka on the main road. This engine is a Korean War veteran, and would be ideal for an authentic M-38 restoration. “
UPDATE: Price now $5200.
(06/19/2014) This jeep has one of the more unusual F-bumps.
“1948 Willys Jeep. Very rear. Looks and runs excellent. Newer engine with low miles. Great fun for the summer. Turns a lot of heads. Hop in and drive it away.“
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $3200.
(07/08/2014) “Will run” suggests it doesn’t currently run. Appears very restorable.
“WILL RUN
NEEDS BRAKES
THIS IS A RARE FIND
BEEN SITTING IN A BARN FOR THE LAST 10 YEARS”
I’ve been oscillating between chills and a fever all day. So, no updates to the site AND I haven’t checked Tuesday’s emails. I’m improved tonight, so there’s hope for feeling better tomorrow.
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $5500.
“New upholstery and bikini top. Complete tune up, all original parts in motor
4cylinder 6 volt. Motor has been overhauled.”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Were $2000
(08/13/2014) Neither runs. The ad was posted in California, but the jeeps are in Seeley Lake, MT.
“2– F170 jeep forward control pickups sold as a pair. One is a parts rig the other is complete. both are 1959 F170 SOLD AS IS– the chassis with the engine was kept covered. Have never tried to start either engine, they both turn over. Usual rust on the bodies. $2000.00 OBO”
On Saturday I drove over to Seattle via Hwy 20 to Ethyl, Washington, where the Pacific Northwest Four Wheel Drive Association was holding the 2014 Summer Convention. While there, I got a chance to talk with both Herm and Marty Tilford, but spent most of the time taking photos. Turns out I could have used my wife’s help with properly setting the shutter speed. I did get a few good photos though.
On Sunday I got a chance to meet with Cody. A retired Marine Commander (hope I got that rank right), he’s a ball of energy who shared some great stories and insights. Though he doesn’t own a jeep yet, he’s been considering the purchase of one and has been reading eWillys to learn about them. Most of the year he lives in Taiwan, but is currently in the U.S. helping out family. He’s led an interesting life and we had a great chat.
Unfortunately, instead of spending Monday working on the jeep, I spent it not feeling well. So, I may return to Pasco on Tuesday for my wife to dote on me (hopefully).
Here are the pics from Summer Convention. The first two show’s Marty’s jeep just after the tire blew and his front driveline coupler broke (see it on the floor).
I wonder who “Pat” was and whether she was impressed with the jeep’s name? Looks like the photo was taken in December of 1943.
“Orginal WW2 pictures of soldiers posing in their Jeep French Morroco”
Jeep Juice? Anyone ever used this? It comes with several other cans of stuff.
“3 VINTAGE CANS TEXACO RADIATOR FLUSH, JEEP JUICE & TURTLE WAX. HIGH BIDDER GETS ALL 3. SEE PICTURES.”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $4900.
Seller listed this as a 1949 CJ-2A. May be a good price.
“I inherited this and I am not an expert on Jeeps. It is 12 volt and runs great. It is too hard on my back to keep but everyone who rides in it loves it. Price is firm , about 36,000 miles on it.”
Anyone recognize that winch? Looks like it might be a winch/compresser combo?

That’s one tall transmission shift level. The jerry can in the rear is actually the gas tank.

Brakes aren’t working. Looks like it’s got a tall lift. Given the price, it’s worth a look.

Some pics show the truck with rear fenders, some do not. One shows the radiator out. I’m not sure if this is running or is a project.
