1942_mb_oregoncoastNote the interesting modifications to the grille.

“This is a Jeep that I purchased a little while back. I was going to restore it to look like the old Military Jeeps. It features a one of a kind grill which has two half vents on each side, as well as 4 indicator lights, instead of just 2. This one has a tailgate, which I think may not be original. It has the flathead motor or the “Go Devil” motor. The other parts of the drivetrain, I believe are original. The body has a military style dash, with the military style glovebox….”

1945_cj2a_goffstownUPDATE: **SOLD** Was $1500

There’s been some body work that has obscured one of the two driver-side indents.  It still has the column shifter. It’s sort of running.

“This is a 1945 Willys CJ2A with all the matching tags. It is serial number 11752 which means it was the 1752 CJ2A made in 1945 out of a total of 1824 for that year and it is the 1752 CJ ever built. This is a project but certainly can be put back into shape. There aren’t too many of these 1945 CJ’s left around. It has the 3 speed on the column which seems to work as it should. The head and valves were pulled by the previous owner because of a broken valve guide. He said that it ran fine before. It does turn over freely and seems to have good compression and no strange noises. I believe I have all the engine parts but you know how that goes, so please plan on something missing…..”

1953_cj3b_austinUPDATE: **SOLD** Was $500

It appears someone got a good deal on a parts jeep or project.  This sold very quickly.

“The Good – 53 willys Jeep, late 60’s Olds V-6 motor – the motor and drivetrain seems tight and good. It is complete, was driven until 2000. Will need to be thoroughly checked out after being parked for so long. Rollbar is in good shape. Have the original owners Oregon Title, I got the vehicle from her son when I bought his house. The bad – no keys, the throttle pedal needs to be re-attached to floorboard, did I mention the brakes – need rebuild. Kids shot the windshield glass w/BB gun 2×3 times, tires are OLD, will probably need a distributor. It needs seats, the old seats are trashed. It has some cancer, but the diamond plate covers it well.”

Brian’s new ‘free’ flattie

May 26, 2009 • CATEGORIES: Builds This site contains affiliate links for which I may be compensated.

Brian just got this beauty in a direct trade for an old car he had planned to drop off at the junk yard.  Just check out the beautiful work done on the steering mechanism.  It’s one of a kind.  The body is fiberglass, though it has a couple features I don’t recognize, such as the angle cut from the dashboard down to the passenger door opening, the flaring, and the gap between the fenders and the cowl (which I suspect means there has been some cutting of the body there).

Brian writes:  “Here is the jeep the kid will trade me for a 98 Ford Contour straight across. Contour runs/drive needs brake and tires. It has rusted out rockers Anne and I were going to drive it down to the junk yard and leave it. (Not expecting any money for it.) Note the gap between fender and tub?? I like the how they dropped the pitman arm (yikes). Nice shackles, lol.   Looks like it has the D-18 and offset 44 & original engine and transmission. Does not run.”

My Build – Front brake brackets

May 25, 2009 • CATEGORIES: Biscuit This site contains affiliate links for which I may be compensated.
0

Because the frame is about 8″ higher than stock and due to the frame changes, I had to reroute the brake lines underneath the frame rather than through the middle of the frame.  Another advantage of this system is that I can use standard CJ-5 flexible brake lines, which reduces my costs. I considered a variety of bracket ideas, but finally developed the following:

These two brackets were cut from flat steel,  drilled and then bent.

brakes_2

Next, I put it against the frame to figure out the exact position.

brake_2_5

Next, I welded them to each side of the frame. You can’t see it from the pic, but I drilled a hole near the bottom of the bracket so I could fill in the hole and weld the bracket to the frame. I also welded the top of the bracket to the frame.

And here’s the passenger side with paint and everything tightened.

This is nicely ‘restored’, but there is some customization.  The body is an aftermarket body and the builder added a few modern updates to the dash, including the radio.  It appears to have a nice PTO setup.
