1942? MB? Yuba City, CA $27,000

• CATEGORIES: MB • TAGS: , This site contains affiliate links for which I may be compensated.

This jeep has a few interesting mods. For example, a small modded-item holds the radiator in place using the holes from the grille’s footman loop. Or, I can’t remember seeing a power brake setup with a clutch master cylinder mounted to the unit like this one (is that custom, aftermarket, or out of something?). Some videos on this page: https://www.clasiq.com/auction/1942-jeep-willys/

“Obtained from a substantial collector out of the Fresno, CA area back in 2017. Odometer is a custom VDO and reads 05588, representing the miles placed on her since the complete reconstruction. Our current Owner has enjoyed the streets of Plumas Lake, CA and while not a big ‘wheeler’, has enjoyed the top-down scene offered by California’s fine weather. She has a clear and clean CA title in our Owner’s name.

New steel tub creates a CJ2 style Jeep atop a 1942 frame. Complete frame off was performed during it’s restoration and modification. Chrome accessories detail the body with plated hinges, latches, light rings and custom fit bumpers. Frame is reported as fully powder-coated. Soft-top canvas covers the interior and is reported to be in good shape, just not a perfectly tight fit. We finish with bead-lock styled one-piece aluminum rims and Wild Country off-road radials. And don’t forget that clean fit Warn winch riding up front. Continue reading

1947 CJ-2A Bozeman, MT $2500

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

Along with some rust, this CJ-2A has all kinds of mods. I’ve unaware of any factor “cowl cover”; that said, the place I’ve seen these cowl extensions most often is in the northern Colorado, Wyoming, and Montana areas, so maybe there was a dealer(s) in those areas offering custom cowl creations? The hardtop looks to be an aftermarket Koenig half cab.

Year? CJ-5 Springtown, TX $3850

Listed as a 1960, it appears later than that given the fenders and grille. The dashboard is about as minimalist as they get!

1948 CJ-2A Plains, MT $12,000

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

UPDATE: Still Available.

(02/20/2022) The body looks in great shape. The custom console under the dash seems a nice fit (though probably not easy to get to given it is behind the shifters).

https://denver.craigslist.org/cto/d/paradise-1948-jeep-willys/7458106559.html

“Very nice finished Willys with newer Buick overdrive V-6 Detroit locker rear end with floater kit, 11 inch brakes. 4×4 lifted with tight suspension. Tow bar connector under front bumper. Solid straight body and undercarrige. Newer seat also has good floors and tub. This rig really likes to go fishing. Clean title $12,000 Plains Mt.”
