1947 CJ-2A Dahlonega, GA **SOLD**

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

UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $3200.

(07/21/2012) I knew something looked odd about this.  After a couple moments I spotted the problem.  This actually has bow holders installed in the bow holders!  How often do you see that in a jeep, other than a perfectly stock show jeep?  If those are the original bow holders, then the seller deserves some kind of medal.

“I have a 1947 Willys Cj2a for sale. It has the original 4 cylinder with a 2.5 lift. 33 inch tires and full soft top. I have the overhaul kit for the transfercase and transmission(over 400 dollar value). The syncros are bad but the jeep does drive.”

Thanks for sharing Rich!

Lynn’s 1943 GPW

Paul wrote to say that a friend of his brought this GPW by for a look.

Paul writes, “My friend Lynn stopped by a few days ago to show me his most recently purchased Jeep.  It’s a 1943 Ford, in pretty solid shape considering the fact it’s been parked outside under a spruce tree for many years.  Lots of spruce needles covering the inside of the tub, the usual rust in the floors along with dents and dings but a pretty darn complete 69 year old Jeep.  Also included with this Jeep (but stored in the tow vehicle for the trip home) were both front seats and the folding rear seat.  Numerous parts are stamped with the letter F and all three data plates are still attached to the glove box door.  Not only did the neighbors come over to eyeball the Jeep when it was parked in front of the house but Lynn mentioned on the way home while stopped in traffic and while in a parking lot folks were wanting to look the Jeep over and some even tried to buy it.  Anyway, this old Ford arrived safely at it’s new home where a pressure wash will remove the grime and plant residue and allow a more in depth inspection of this steel soldier.”

This sounds like a solid panel wagon, though needs some TLC.

“1948 Willys Overland Panel Delivery Hot Rod, truck has a 440hp motor with performer heads, cam, timing gear and intake, 3″ exhaust, too much to list come check it out price is firm but will consider intersting trades that are older than 1970. No Tire Kickers, this is an old truck, looks like an old truck, needs some tlc like an old truck”
