(09/19/2023) This is number 10938. This has a variety of mods, though it lacks an engine. It’s got a Kelly 23 Series hardtop.

“945 Willys CJ-2a. Heavily modified, setup for an old corvette engine with auto tranny. Complete Koenig king winch and Kelly hard top. None of the 45 stuff is left other than the body frame axles and possibly T-case. Not a single data tag either, but the serial is stamped into the frame by hand, #10938. Body is in pretty good shape rust wise but has plenty of dings and bondo from the era when they wanted em SMOOTH on the outside.”

1945 VEC CJ-2A Rainier, OR $15,000

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

UPDATE: Still Available.

(04/10/2023) John shared this early CJ-2A. It’s had a few updates, but the indents and column shift are still there. There has been some body work (such as the elimination of the spare tire carrier mounting holes), along with new paint. If the underside on this is solid, it may well be worth a look at this price. I don’t impinge it would take too much to bring this back to stock.
