UPDATE: **SOLD** Was on eBay.
Has some updates, include a Vortex V-6.
“1946 Jeep Willys original body and drive train. 3 speed T-90 transmission with 4 wheel drive. Warn Locking hubs. This jeep had a new paint job. interior is rhino lined. all lights and gauges function as they should. comes with an original and extremely rare 1947 removable dually kit, that was sandblasted and repainted. It is currently on the vehicle. It can stay on or can be removed as desired. Has a modified engine with a Vortec v-6 rebuilt with under 100 miles on it.
The seats have been recovered and look new. it has a CJ-3A windshield because i liked the look better than the CJ 2-A. functioning driver side wiper. I also have the blinker set up that i haven’t set up yet. Starts on the first turn. Was converted to a 12volt alternator. rear disc brakes. color combo is beautiful. has minor imperfections but this is not a repro body. Has all the hardware for a canvas soft top. This is a once in a lifetime opportunity to own a jeep willys with real temporary dually…I’ve searched for over 20 years to find the dually kit.
I can’t tell what type, but this appears to have some dually adapters on the back.

(12/08/2017) Roger’s got this set of dual wheel adapters for sale. One side of the adapter has been welded onto 15″ rims. These appear to be the same unknown adapters as the sets seen in #5 on this list. If you’d like to know more, contact Roger at 937-477-5270.
UPDATE: **SOLD** Were $750. These are Hickey Dual Wheel adapters.
“Dual wheels adapter set for willys jeeps Used New old stock . 5.37″ wide approx .Included 5 left and 5 right thread studs .Has no markings on adapters, paint has minor scratches.”
Ted assembled these photos to highlight the differences between three different adapters: the Welliver, Floy Fox, and Rapport. You can learn more about adapters here: http://www.ewillys.com/2017/04/05/dual-wheel-adapters/
Ted’s also got a variety of parts for sale. You can see them all here:

Ted writes, “I changed over from a set of Wellivers on my rear of the 2a to a set of Rappaport’s. The Welliver’s are very rare and nice in the fact that they fit on front or rear of Jeep. The third type I have are exact copies from an original set of Floy Foxs that I found on an old Willy’s Truck many years ago. A good jeep buddy of mine, who’s a really great machinist, makes them for me when he’s not booming with his other work. All three of these types bolt right up to original Willy’s rims and, importantly, do not require the second wheel to be mounted backwards like on the Hickey type and shorter versions like the pair that have been on ebay forever. I think the Willys’ guys are smart enough to see there too short .”
Welliver adapters:
