1947 CJ-2A Hiawatha, KS eBay

June 28, 2012 • CATEGORIES: CJ-2A • TAGS: Nice, Stock. This site contains affiliate links for which I may be compensated.

This looks in good shape.

“A nice 1947 Willy’s Jeep CJ2A with an Original Aluminum Hard Top with doors and a Bikini Top. This is a multiple year restoration while also a daily driver around the farm and to town (not a full restoration see Photos). Many many new parts and I’ll try to list most. It has seats and seat belts for four persons and a roll bar. Pintle and Ball hitch. All lights work. Has hard to find original glass front marker lights and original dash light. It looks and runs great. One photo shows gauges on dash working while engine is running (good oil pressure, volts etc.). Interior is in good condition, good upholstery and a full truck bed floor mat. Faults: parking brake not working, and steering is loose (I’m used to it) it needs the center Pitman shaft or just drive it like it is. Mileage may not be exact, but it is what shows on the working odometer. Also, this is not and never was a rust bucket. Any surface rust was repaired prior to painting a couple years ago. . . .”

6×6 Jeeps in the Jolly Jeepers Jeep Club

I was looking up some PTO parts when I landed on the Jolly Jeepers website. According to their website, the Jolly Jeepers is Oregon State’s oldest jeep club, having been founded in 1962. Two of the jeeps owned by members are custom 6x6s. You can see more 6x6s here.

Coincidently, just before publishing this post, Blaine happened to send me pictures he took of one of these 6x6s at the Orphan Car Show hosted by the Studebaker Drivers Club in Oregon City, Oregon, this past Sunday. I’ve seen “Gator” listed both as a DJ-6 and a CJ-6, so I’m not entirely sure what the base platform was.

Here’s an early shot of the Gator:
