Gotta love the ‘disc’ brake on the driveshaft as the stopping power!

“CJ2A Willys Jeep for sale. $1600 OBO. It is a 1946/7. Frame has been completely replaced with a custom frame. Brakes are via disk brake on drive shaft. I have lapped the valves and adjusted. New points, condenser plugs and coil. Carb has been cleaned but probably needs some adjusting. It still misses out some. There is rust on body, see pictures. No Title.

UPDATE: Price dropped to $5500.

(01/18/2014) I don’t often see a Capstan Winch on a CJ-5.

“Up for sale is a 1959 Willys Cj-5 with a rare Braden J-2 Capstan winch. The jeep runs and drives great but the brakes are inop. Trans/t-case are in working order. The engine starts right up and runs great with the exception of the exhaust needing to be replaced. The Capstan winch is complete and operates smoothly. The winch is correct for a WWII Willys Mb or Ford Gpw and would look great on your restoration. It can also be left on the Jeep like it is currently for that oopsy when you get stuck on the trail. I have a clear Michigan title. I also have many other Willys Jeeps and parts. E-mails will not be responded to. Please call (906) two eight seven fourteen hundred”

North Washington Trip | July 30th Oroville to Colville –>

2014-07-29-fs37-6

US near the pass on road FS 37, northeast of Winthrop, WA

MONDAY: Pasco to Winthrop 2014-07-28-pasco-winthropWe left Pasco at noon on Monday the 28th. It was already 100 degrees. It’s a good thing the jeep has air-conditioning! There was nothing particularly interesting (or I should say it’s a drive I’ve done often enough to be bored with it) until we reached Dry Falls State Park, which once was the site of the largest waterfall in the world. As you can see from the pics, the view is pretty good. They had some pretty good looking food, too. We had ice-cream. 2014-07-28-sun-lakes-dry-falls-state-park2 2014-07-28-sun-lakes-dry-falls-state-park3 2014-07-29-conconully-3 Continue reading →
