1947 CJ-2A Portland, Or $800 (parting out)

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

I’m not sure if $800 takes everything or not.

“I have a stock 47 Willys jeep I’m parting out. Front end rear end, 3speed tranny twin stick T-case with PTO, 8000lbs PTO winch, F head motor & all the drive lines for the jeep & PTO. motor runs needs carb work. tranny works but pops out of 2nd when you let off the gas pretty minor stuff for the age. Can start motor for now but getting ready to take it out. possible part trade for a electric winch with cash on your end not interested in any other trades. $800 for all VIA E-MAIL ( JEEP IS NOT FOR SALE)”

An Unusual Jeep Story with this Ad (1962 CJ-5)

• CATEGORIES: CJ5 • TAGS: This site contains affiliate links for which I may be compensated.

Bob pointed out a discussion regarding a 1962 CJ-5 for sale on eBay. You can see the original post about this jeep at the CJ-2A page.

The original ebay ad text is shown below.  After a few days, the story was changed and you can view the new version of the ad here: View the ad here

“Hello, Ive listed this jeep on here before it always came within $500.00 of the reserve but never sold. So I have lowered the reserve price hoping that it will go to a new home! Ok, Heres what i know about the Jeep It was bought by an retired Gen. back in 1962. He bought it new becauseHe thought it was the Idenacal Jeep that (Patton) was killed in duing the war! Now this has been disputed here in the last couple of days! When I pulled it up on a Google search it did say that he was killed in a cj-5 Jeep? But who really knows? Ive had several e-mails that totally agree with this and some dont.Im only 48 so I dont know? Anyway He later died and it went from collector to collector. When I purchased it here in Fl. My daughter was Just sixteen working on the beach. She could never get the hang of the shifting so I took it to a Jeep expert here in town and it started its three month change over to an automatic. I still have all of the original rear end, three speep trans. clutch and the presure plate. Also I have the gear box and the drive line for the front axle. I left this out on purpose so that my daughter would not be tempted by going down on the beach with it. Anyway, after several months she was leaving work in the jeep and four men in their early twenties started commenting on the jeep and how they wanted it for themselves. So as she was pulling away from them they grabbed her and tried to pull her out of it to steal it! Luckily she had her seat belt on and they couldnt! Needless to say she ran one of them over and took off! After all of that she was pretty shook up so I bought her a new car to drive and the jeep has been sitting in storage ever since. And that was last Aug.15th. I have gone over and started it about every six weeks. The last time was this last week end.  Ive been told by several people that this jeep is very rare and if put in the right place and person that it would bring up to $30,000. But im starting it at $12,000 and (No Reserve!) so what ever it bring is what it brings! I do know that it is alot of fun to drive and if taken care of it will last a long time! Please remember that it is 48 plus yrs. old! Good luck! and enjoy.”
