This appears to be a M-38 with bow holders on the side and bow holders at the rear corners.  Very odd.

Bruce spotted this unusual flattie.

“We have a 1946 Willys jeep that was passed down from my grandfather. It was running last year but had some bad fuel and needs a carb job and a clean tank of fuel. Engine and transmission in great shape, but the suspension needs to be replaced. The body is very much restorable. I am only interested in serious offers on this Jeep…No tire kickers please. Im not sure on the KM’s, but had to put in something. 4000$ OBO”

1951 CJ-3A Falkville, AL **SOLD**

• CATEGORIES: CJ-3A, Fire/Police/Industry Vehicles This site contains affiliate links for which I may be compensated.

UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $3200.

This is an ex-United Airlines jeep with a brass plaque still attached. It might be an interesting restoration if some early pictures can be found.

“This is a 1951 Willys Jeep with a 1946 windshield. The jeep was used by United Airlines to pull luggage carts and still has a brass plate on the dash with United Airlines and the vehicle number on it. Because of it’s use it only shows 6,823 miles on the odometer. I have no way of knowing if this is actual miles but have no reason for believing that it is not. When I put new tires on the Jeep last year the old tires looked new as far as wear but were dry rotted. The jeep was painted 3 years ago after any rusty areas were repaired with fiberglass resin and fiberglass matt. The repairs were not fixed with bondo. The vehicle is for fun and not for show. I have grandsons from age 4 to age 25 and some of them learned to drive a straight shift in this jeep. The paint job is not perfect by a long shot. The jeep is near perfect mechanically including transmission, rear end, transfer case, 4 wheel drive, steering, and brakes. Brakes were rebuilt this year. Motor cranks every time, does not smoke, and has always been dependable. Jeep has an antique tag and is road worthy. If you are looking for a Jeep that is mechanically sound, dependable and a lot of fun this may be it. Is mostly original except it is painted and has decals as a military jeep but it was not. The seats are mustang seats covered by me.”

UPDATE: **SOLD** Was on eBay

(08/01/2012) This looks in good condition, though has a few unusual minor mods.

“Great condition, stock tall hood Jeep. Engine was rebuilt 12743 miles ago, and had a tune up about 200 miles ago. The odometer was spun back to zero when the motor was rebuilt. Shifts great, doesn’t pop out of gear like some do. Starts right up, runs all day and doesn’t get hot. Has brakes from a Gladiator truck, so it stops pretty well. Everything works. Very reliable. Hard to find defroster, Warn hubs. Top is nearly new. Tow bar, old school radio and speakers, brass fire extinguisher. Body work looks good from 10 feet, but has flaws. It’s not a show car, I drive it around town all the time. CA Registered to April 2013. It’s more fun to drive a slow car fast, than a fast car slow. No reserve. Please contact with any questions.”

1948 CJ-2A Phoenix, AZ **SOLD**

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

UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $500

The seller does a good job of describing this rolling chassis.

“First and foremost, this Jeep has a normal, CLEAN TITLE. No data plates are included though (the previous owner couldn’t locate them). But if you want data plates, reproductions are readily available and you stamp the serial number from the title on them. I purchased this a few weeks ago for some parts I needed for my ’46 restoration, and this is the culmination of parts that I don’t need or have extras of. The frame is solid with no major rust areas, but the front frame horn area (forward of the front crossmember) will either need some work to straighten them out or replacement. The rear axle is the original D41, and the front axle is a D25 from a WWII Ford GPW. (The front axle might be worth a bit if you can find someone restoring a GPW). This Jeep might be a bit much to consider using as a base for a full restoration, but would be PERFECT for a crawler build! Here’s a few more specifics:

Tub: Pretty decent shape (actually, it’s in MUCH better shape than my ’46), but someone has deleted the tailgate area and welded a steel panel in its place. They did a pretty decent job of it too. It looks good, but I want a tailgate. If it hadn’t been for this modification, I’d be keeping this tub. The hat channels underneath are in pretty good shape as well (considering it’s a 64 year old Jeep). The front floor has been covered in fiberglass. The rear floor is in pretty solid shape with one area that needs some patching. Wheelhouses look great. Dash panel looks very good with only a few “bubba holes.”

Windshield Frame: Originally from a military (Korean War era) M38. These are somewhat desirable for their one-piece (and much larger) glass (no glass is present though). Still has the original OD green paint underneath the white.

Hood: Has been repaired in the past (welded down the middle seam). They didn’t do a very good job of it, but it looks repairable.

Fenders: A few extra holes here an there (like the common practice of installing a second pair of hold-downs at the rear of the fender), but in good shape.

Wheels/Tires: Mismatched set, but they do hold air; will serve well as rollers, but I wouldn’t try and drive on them.

Drivetrain: NO ENGINE, TRANSMISSION OR TRANSFER CASE INCLUDED. For those that want to attempt an original-ish restoration, I can sell them a L134 engine, T90 transmission and D18 transfer case in rebuildable condition for an additional $250. The engine has been sitting a while, but I pulled the oil pan and everything looks great; turns over freely. Hell, it may even start right up; who knows.”

(10/09/2012) This looks to have rust along the driver’s side.  It has no title.

“1946 Willys CJ2a jeep that has been used on a deer lease. The jeep runs and drives good. The gauges all work, horn works, lights all work, the four wheel drive works good, the transfer case seal on the front drips gear oil, the transfer case makes some noise but still works good, the engine runs good, the cab on the jeep can come off, but works pretty good in the winter. The jeep does have some rust, this jeep would be good for hunting out of or using on a ranch. The jeep has not been on the road and the title is lost, but will provide a bill of sale to the winner.”

Based on the Serial Number this is technically a 1958.  You can follow the discussion here and here.

It doesn’t run at the moment.

“We have a 1957 Jeep Willys (Kaiser) DJ-2A Flathead 2WD in our barn. We are evaluating what to do with it but we are not interested in fixing it up. It has all the parts and was running (driven into the garage) but it is rough. We want to sell it but do not want to chop it up or part it out because it was running when we drove it into the barn about 4 years ago.”

Ann and I arrived safely in Pasco after a sunny/rainy/snowy/windy day driving through the panhandle of Idaho, then west to Pasco. We spotted and photographed a couple jeeps, ate some good food and visited with family; so it was a complete day!

More tomorrow on this possible CJ-2L Bruce spotted. Note rare Desert Dog PCV tires (not that they are in good shape).  They have a tighter tread than the standard Desert Dog tires.

The Four Wheel Steer Bantam in Pop Mechanics

I spotted this brief note about the four-wheel-steer Bantam BRC-40 on page 167 of the May 1946 issue of Popular Mechanics.  Why it appeared five years after it was built seems a little strange.  I can’t imagine the army keeping this model top secret for any reason.  Maybe they needed some filler for the issue?
