1947 CJ-2A Riverside, CA **SOLD**

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

UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $2900

This body has seen some repairs.  That’s a serious cage, too.

“1947 Willy’s Jeep CJ-2 with Buick V-6. Holley Carb. Offenhauser dual port intake manifold, headers, brand new exhaust, electronic ignition, original 3 speed transmission and transfer case all works great. Power steering, new brakes and wheel cylinders, could use a rebuilt master cylinder and ball joints but runs and drives strong. 4 wheels like a beast.”

Roll Cage Olympia, Wa $250

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

UPDATE:  Price dropped to $250

(04/08/2011) This looks like a CJ-5/m-38a1 cage.  You can tell because the front loop bend is pretty high, compared to low hood flatfender frontloops where the bend should start lower, and the front loop is the same width as the rear loop (thanks HOG).

“This cage came out of my 51jeep willys. It is powder coated blue with dark blue flacks and has two RCI seats. Asking 300obo. Thank for looking. Luke. call or tex but please no email. 3604023307”

1948 CJ-2A Woodland, Wa $325

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

This looks like an old racer.  The roll cage alone is worth some money.  The engine might be worth $325 if it runs like the seller indicates.  The seller also has a set of mounted terra tractor tires for only $150.

“1948 Willys CJ2A Jeep, You can air up the tires, light it on fire & push it down a hill……….but you probably won’t drive this one without a little fine tuning here and there!
It has been converted to a Buick 3.8 V6 engine, but all of the rest of the drive train appears to be original……..Dana 25 in the front…….Dana 30 in the rear.
The tub, firewall and hood have been hacked by someone that shouldn’t be allowed to have any sharp objects. The fenders, grill and frame might be of use to someone, or, you can refer back to my opening line at the top. $325 and it is yours! You could offer me a little less if I appear to be in a good mood.

1950 CJ-3A Pleasanton, CA **SOLD**

UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $17990.

Did you know that Willys Overland introduced the CJ-3A in 1949 and then introduced the CJ-2A the next year?  That’s a surprise to me, too …. At least they did well with the rest of the history.  It is a good looking jeep.

“Our 1950 Willys-Overland CJ3A features a Small-Block 350 (300 HP), 350 Turbo Automatic Transmission with 4-Wheel Drive. Located at our Benicia Showroom 707.748.4000. For our entire inventory go to www.specialtysales.com This CJ has Power Steering/Brakes, Cruise Control, a Dana 44 Heavy-Duty Front Axle and a Dana 60 Heavy-Duty Rear Axle as well as a Dana 20 Transfer Case. There are many more upgrades – too many to list!, The Willys CJ (later Jeep CJ) is a public version of the famous Willys Military Jeep from World War II. The first CJ prototype (the Willys CJ-2) was introduced in 1944 by Willys, and the same basic vehicle stayed in production through seven variants and three corporate parents until 1986. A variant of the CJ is still in production today under license. The last CJs, the CJ-7 and CJ-8, were replaced in 1987 by the Jeep Wrangler., The Willys-Overland CJ-3A was introduced in 1949, and replaced the CJ-2A by the next year. It featured a one-piece windshield with a vent as well as wipers at the bottom, and a beefed up suspension to accommodate the various agricultural implements that were being built for the vehicle.”

Auctions Kings sells a Militarized CJ-2A for $16,000

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

Pete spotted this upcoming suction on the Discovery Channel’s Auction Kings Show.  Turns out, the episode is on the web. It was also for sale here for $20k.

My question is, does the auctioneer have any fiduciary responsibility to be honest?  Because, to say “this is restored perfectly” is simply dishonest.  On the other hand, the seller didn’t know what they were buying, so they shoulder some blame for spending $16,000 (plus any other fees) on this one.  It does look great, just not as historical as implied.

1946 Flattie Kirkland, Wa eBay

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

Some  unique customizations on this nice build.

This vehicle is titled as a “1946 Jeep”(which would technically be a CJ2a)  but has been built with a new Willys GPW steel tub as well as Ford running gear. Windshield is from a CJ3a. This was a custom build to replicate an over the top version of a GPW jeep. It was done professionally and is in incredible condition, mechanically as well as cosmetically.

Engine: Ford 302

Transmission: Ford D5

Transfer Case: Dana 18

Axles: Dana 44 front/rear

Edelbrock 1405 4 barrel carb

New Genuine Jeep Willys metal Tub, with fiberglass fenders.

Gorgeous Paint, soft top is in good codition, but leaks through two small gaps in front.  I don’t drive the vehicle in the rain so it never bothered me but the one time I got caught in a Seattle summer rain storm.

Lifted with 35″ Tires on Aluminum Wheels

Custom Bumpers front and rear

Frame is painted a nice Burgandy color. See pics.

Other:

The vehicle has heat. Two heaters, actually. One under each seat.

The vehicle has working turn signals. All gauges work.

Other goodies:

Optima Blue Top battery

Mallory ignition system

Mileage: About 8,000 miles since resoted. I drove the vehicle on a 250 road trip and it did great. Vehicle tracks straight down the freeway at 60 no problems.

Vehicle is 100% new or restored. Beautiful example of a restored Willys.

Note: I am a collector, not a mechanic. I have owned this vehicle and have had no problems with it what so ever. This vehicle is is terrific running condition. Everything works on the vehicle to the best of my knowledge.

Other: Vehicle has three paint flaws. See last three pictures below. They are VERY MINOR and are NOT on the body of the vehicle. The one on the interior windshild is not rusted, it looks like it in the picture, but it is not. The body paint is gorgeous and only has a couple chips on the door sill where your foot would hit getting in and out. Pictures speak a thousand words. Vehicle is being sold as-is, where-is. I will help arrange shipping on this side, but you’re responsible to get it to you and to pay for any shipping charges. There is no warranty on this vehicle express or implied.”

1948? CJ-2A/3B San Fernando Valley, CA **SOLD**

• CATEGORIES: CJ-3B • TAGS: , , , This site contains affiliate links for which I may be compensated.

UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $6900

Has an unusual body.  My first thought was unibody, maybe fiberglass(?), as I can’t see seams between the front clip and the body.  In fact, the hood appears to be a normal sized low hood that sits a top a solid CJ-3B clip (fenders/body/grille all molded/welded together).

“1948 Jeep Willys, 289l V-8, auto trans, B&M shifter, low miles, new interior and upholstery, soft top included, all terrain tires, aux. fuel tank rack, alloy wheels, tow bar, clean paint, runs excellent.”

1953 CJ-3A Ferndale, WA **SOLD**

• CATEGORIES: CJ-3A • TAGS: This site contains affiliate links for which I may be compensated.

UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $750.

(12/29/2010) There might be some value here.  It looks like it has a MB or GPW body along with a Bobcat fiberglass hood.  It almost looks like an old racer.

“For sale is my very good running 1953 Jeep CJ3A. The jeep starts, runs, shifts and drives well. It has a early 1970’s Buick V-6 engine installed. Saginaw power steering box installed. 1953 was the last year of the CJ3A before they went to the high hood model. The 4 wheel drive works but the hubs are sticking and need to be taken off and cleaned. The Jeep has some rust here and there but nothing that can not be fixed. It has an aftermarket fiberglass hood that needs a couple hours of glass work for two very minor cracks. Has a hydraulic brake lock device installed for stopping on steep grades. Needs headlights installed. Very nice roll bar. Clean title in hand. Feel free to come take it for a test drive. FREE DELIVERY WITHIN 30 MILES (Except to the islands or Canada). PLEASE – SERIOUS BUYERS ONLY. I do not have the spare time to waste on flakes and jokers. $750 OBO”

This is a real nice rig with custom suspension and more.  You can’t build it for that price.  If I remember correctly, the previous owner sold it after building a new jeep.  I believe the front end was stretched 12 inches as well.  I remember that because I was curious about how far to stretch my front clip, so i saved an image of it, which you can see at the very bottom.
