1947 CJ-2A Gold Country, CA $7000

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

UPDATE: Price dropped to $7000.

(03/15/2015) This body is a blend of CJ-5 and flatfender. It looks well done.

“1947 CJ2A with 302 V8 and C4 transmission out of a ’71 Mustang. It has a Dana 18 transfer case, a Dana 44 rear axle and a 25 front with 5.38 gears and Torsen gear driven limited slips in both. The frame has been fully boxed and a second fuel tank has been added between the rails in the rear for a total of 20 gallons. It is lifted 3″ with 33×12.50×15 tires that have plenty of tread. There is a Warn 8274 winch on the front and a removable spare tire rack that holds two Jerry cans on the back, when the rack is off there are an additional two Jerry can mounts on the back of the tub. There is absolutely no rust and everything works right down to the fuel gauge, speedometer, blinkers, heater and wipers. It comes with a tow bar so you can haul it or drive it away, it handles just fine on the highway. The little jeep is in great running condition and is ready to hit the road or trail. ”

Year? Flattie Waco, TX $2000

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

This has some odd mods.

“This Jeep is being sold for parts. It was bought for parts to fix another older jeep but this one has had some custom modifications from the past owner who used it as a farm vehicle. It has a V-6 and a manual three speed transmission with 4WD. The differentials and transmission would be excellent for off road builds. This jeep is being sold as is and in one piece. It does not have tires so the buyer is responsible for loading and transporting the Jeep. I am ready to get rid of this jeep so the price could be negotiated.”

cj3b-custom-jeep-eden-nc1 cj3b-custom-jeep-eden-nc2 cj3b-custom-jeep-eden-nc3 cj3b-custom-jeep-eden-nc4

Vintage Willys Jeep sitting on a Chevrolet Truck 4×4 frame custom built. Vehicle is in good condition, it has always been stored inside and not exposed to weather. Although the vehicle has been sitting inside for several years, after putting fresh gas in the tank the Chevrolet 350 Engine was cranked and it does run. It will go into gear and would lot drive but the front brakes are stuck and will need some work. The vehicle does not have a battery so it will need a new one. The vehicle was put together to run in tractor pulls but never was used for that purpose. It has been in used parades and on display but cannot be driven on the highway as this vehicle has been heavily modified.
