1940s MB Santa Margarita, CA **SOLD**

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

UPDATE:  **SOLD** Was $3000

(03/28/2010) This has a few updates.

“We aren’t too sure of what exact year it is but we did find out that it could be in between the years of 41-51 body style. The engine we know was taken out of another jeep a little newer then the body. Its an F-head with the valve cover on top so it was taken out of a jeep from the years 53-63. We found that it’s very common for people to switch out the engines from that year because it’s better performance.

The jeep has very little rust and all of it is surface rust that we can find. It doesn’t have a transmission unfortunately or i would be driving it. i have a magazine that sells parts for jeeps and we found a transmission for it and it would only cost about 1500 dollars which isn’t bad for this old of a jeep. I would fix it up myself but i don’t have money and i really need a vehicle. Right now it’s an open title. I want to sell for $3000 OBO”

1947 CJ-2A Indianapolis, IN **SOLD**

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

UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $11,995.

This looks like a beautifully restored CJ-2A. The MC engine indicates this (the head or engine) was originally out of a M-38.

“Thanks for viewing my auction, I am selling with NO RESERVE,  my 1947 Willys Jeep CJ2A. This Jeep was restored 7 years ago. Every nut and bolt was removed. All components on this Jeep have been disassembled, repaired, rebuilt, refurbished and or replaced. It is painted in the original Willys colors of Normandy Blue with Sunset Red wheels with black stripe. The vehicle was done by Professional automotive technicians who specialize in Willys restorations. The cost to correctly restore a CJ2A would exceed 25,000.00. My starting bid is 11,995.00

There are no modifications that have been made to this Jeep, There are some places where there were stainless nuts and bolt were used instead of steel. The body is a replacement steel body, It does include the PTO with hard to find safety guard and Monarch governor. The governor to carburator rod has been removed , but is included with the Jeep, along with the original top bows however no canvas is included.

The paint is PPG base clear also included is the left over paint for touch if required.

This jeep starts, runs and drives like a new 1947 CJ2A, It has only 500 miles since this complete restoration, you are welcome to come and see it, no disappointments here.  The engine number (behind the water pump) is MC75860.

1946 CJ-2A Le Claire, Wi **SOLD**

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

UPDATE: **SOLD** Was on eBay.

“1946 Willys CJ2A in original almost rustfree condition, there is slight surface rust on the under body and one spot of rust on a hat channel at one of the mounting bolts. The inner windshield has rust around the glass area and probably could be replaced. The body itself has normal farm use dents and dings but nothing serious and would be a easy restoration, the area around the side holes are probably the worst they had a rubber cover bolted to both of them see picture, I have had it about 20 years and enjoyed it as is. Mechanically it runs great and everything works, including the originak key coil switch, has normal leaks at some of the seals. The brake lines wheel cylinders and master cylinder have all been replaced. The seats have powder coated frames and replacement cushions covered with vynil, the rear seat is a reproduction. Original seat pans springs and coverings go with the Willys. Wheels are powder coated with white vynil strpes and almost new non directional tires. I believe the Willys a has about 29,000 miles as it has on the speedometer. The wireharness could stand replacing, horn button doesn’t work but the horn does, windshied glass is a litttle scratched. The Willys comes with a complete all original Monroe three point hitch with a motor mounted hydraulic pump not installed.PTO with rear gear box and farm belt pulley and governor,V belt pulley for generator or welder, belt driven buss saw I believe it’s a Newgren and a peson that has a Newgren saws the brass tag is right. Front bumper weight, complete operational Linkbelt capstan winch with most original parts, rope roller assy is a reproduction and winch drive bracket is fabricated from steel and works well. Also has original owners manual, chaff screen, and complete set of top bows.”

1952 M-38 Wenatchee, Wa $1300

• CATEGORIES: M-38 This site contains affiliate links for which I may be compensated.

There might be some value here.

“Needs work. Body needs welding due to cracks but is restorable. Unfortunately it has a 302 in it and saginaw steering. And the emergency brake was cut out of the dash. Missing the plate for the dash guage cluster, but guages are there. has the 24 volt hatch on the cowl. I took off the old fenders that were wrong as was the grille. So the ones on it now are correct. But due to the V-8 the radiator will not fit unless you cut the shroud and I could not bring my self to do that. Engine has been started before radiator was removed so I know it runs. But the brake master cylinder needs rebuilt. With those correct and some spot welding of the body it would be road ready. The cracks are from someone that apparently did not know how to weld so they repaired the cracks in the body with fiberglass and bondo which made them worse, but fixable. Top is a actual M38 top and will fit a 3A. Top alone is worth $400 or more and has the doors inside. Seats has legs cut to extend for some tall dude. But can be repaired or put 3A seats in since they are the same. This is basically a military version of a 3A. Has floating rear axles which are sought after. The price is less than what I have into it. have too many jeeps so If you have a L head that has been rebuilt and has all the papers I may consider a trade. If you don’t want the 302 and want to pull it I will swap with a 4 cylinder L head that needs rebuilt but is not a M38 engine. Also may consider a newer utility trailer with sides and ramp for my wide model ATV. Has to be wider than a cargo trailer since mine is to narrow to haul it. Also have other 40’s jeeps that I am selling. They are also projects. I am just too tired to put all these and the other project together. Would hate to see it but with the rear end and engine this would make a good rock crawler. Also have a Buick 225 that I bought rebuilt and have clutch kit still in the box for sale.”

1946 CJ-2A Canyon County, Ca eBay

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

This *might* have an interesting history.  Someone mentioned to me (I can’t remember who) that either Roy or his museum had several Jeeps, so this very well could be one of those.  It looks like it had very little use.  Just look at how nice the front frame rail and bumper looks.

“This is a relatively unmodified Jeep that runs and drives with relatively no known major mechanical defects. See notes below.

98% Rust free Southern California Jeep. Still has six-volt electrical system and all original brake components. I’ve owned this Jeep about 8 years and it has been used as a parade Jeep in a local July 4th parade as well as Christmas light tours.

The previous owner said the Jeep was owned by the movie studios in the 1970s and may have been one of three Jeeps used on the Roy Rogers show. I was told that they used 3 Jeeps – the original NelleBelle, a stunt Jeep and a long distance shot Jeep. Supposedly this was the long distance Jeep. I have never been able to verify these facts,  however, at some point it was pained light gray exactly like NelleBelle. Remember TV was black and white then.

It currently has 15 inch wheels but I’m including 5 sand-blasted 16 inch original Willys’ wheels and some reproduction tail lights.

Positive aspects:
• Frame is 100% original with straight uncut frame horns on the front.
• Exterior body panels straight with no rust out.
• This Jeeps starts up and runs and drives.
• Excellent collector Jeep that can be easily restored.

The following items are not original Jeep parts:
• Tail lights
• Wheels
• Mirror
• Some gauges
• Seat cushions

Known defects:
• The engine has a deep growling noise. It does not seem to be a rod bearing or anything like that. With the fan belt disconnected, the noise is still there. I have no idea what the noise is. it is inside the engine.
• The Dualamatic Overdrive has severe gear noise.
• The passenger side rear wheel well was poorly repaired at some point.
• Minor oil leaks.
• Channel under passenger side floor has some rust-through.
• Radio cut out in dash
• Tail light cut-outs”
