1949? CJ-2A Medota, VA $5000

December 8, 2023 • CATEGORIES: CJ-2A This site contains affiliate links for which I may be compensated.

Hasn’t been started in several years. It’s had some body work.

https://www.facebook.com/marketplace/item/365856629250178

“For sale a 1949 Willys CJ2A. I have owned this jeep for 20 years and it’s been garage kept since I’ve had it. Have not attempted to start it in several years so it definitely needs some mechanical TLC but the body and frame are solid. No rust. If I remember correctly the previous owner did an off the frame restoration. I’d love to see it running again but I just don’t have the time or know how. $5,000 OBO. NO TRADES.”

1946 Testimonial from the Wachusett Country Club

December 6, 2023 • CATEGORIES: Advertising & Brochures, Documents, Features, Old Images • TAGS: 1946-testimonials. This site contains affiliate links for which I may be compensated.

UPDATE: Last posted October 12, 2017

The photo of the jeep underneath the letter shows it without bow holders, but with an extra spare tire carrier. Does this mean the country club ordered it this way? Were the bow holders ever installed? There have been a couple early 2As that appeared unrestored, but without bow holders. I’ve wondered if they could be ordered that way.

Posted June 2019 on eBay, a CJ-3B pulling trams:

==============

From 2015: Africa USA, was part of a theme-park movement in the late 1950s that included New York’s Freedomland, Disneyland, Wisconsin’s Fort Dells, and others. By 1959, these parks were collectively generating revenue of $2 billion.

There is a feature article about these parks in the August 1, 1960, issue of Life Magazine. The picture below is from that article. You can take a ‘virtual’ jeep-train tour of Africa USA here (don’t expect much).

This article appeared in the December 1955 issue of Willys News. That’s the jeep train behind the animals.

I got it on a trade, looks like they did a good job with the restoration. It’s solid, runs and drives great, everything works. A real head turner. I installed front disc brakes for safety, new rear drum brake shoes, new glass in doors, new carburetor and a backup camera. Decals can easily be removed. Interested in TRADING for a mild v-8 vehicle that is HWY drivable long distance. Will consider 50s – early 90s chevy trucks, prefer auto trans with a/c.

1948 Truck Falmouth, ME Status Unknown

UPDATE: **Status Unknown** Was $9750.

This beautiful truck needs an engine. Thanks to Glenn for sharing it.

“This well documented 1948 Jeep Willy’s pickup was acquired in 2017 from an enthusiast who was meticulous in his maintaining of the vehicle. I purchased this truck as a marketing piece for my charitable organization, and unfortunately the rod blew. I am not mechanically skilled, nor am I inclined to have a replacement motor installed; we have acquired a modern version of the truck to serve our needs. The new owner who installs a replacement motor will have a beautiful, aesthetically pleasing antique truck to enjoy for years to come.”
