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

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

UPDATE: Was $6000. **SOLD**

“$6500 with winch, or $6000 without winch, would rather sell without winch. Up for sale is a 1947 Willys Civilian Jeep, with a later model F-head engine. Engine, transmission and transfer case were rebuilt about 1,200 miles ago, new cooper tires put on about 300 miles ago (some older pictures have the old tires) nice best-top brand top with doors, very good shape, runs great, shifts great, starts up every time with no problems, ask any questions you’d like, happy to answer. Has minimal surface rust, no holes or cancer, no major dents or cracks in body, fenders were strengthened at some point with some l-stock steel. Has a suspension lift to fit 31″ tires and bigger f-head engine, center seam under hood has been cut and a small portion of the firewall has been trimmed to accommodate, has holley carb. All gauges work, all electrical works. Has a newer heater. Has hand operated Beebe Bros 2 ton winch that works very well, haven’t seen many of them around, is currently off of the jeep. I love this jeep but I feel like it’s too nice for me to smash around rocks and trees in so I’d rather have something a lot rougher to mess with. Has full roll bar under top, locking ammo can storage compartment between seats, back seat will need some tlc, front seats in great shape with no tears or wear, windshield wipers run off of vaccuum, has tow hitch, comes with one brand new army green jerry can and holder which is mounted to tailgate. Includes one spare tire mounted on side. Electrical is a 6v system. Engine leaks a little oil, I assume some bolts need to be tightened after breaking in from the rebuild. Thanks for looking, e-mail with any questions and leave a number if you’d like to talk over the phone instead.”

UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $500 

“Up for sale is a very rare 1961 willys courier supposedly only 17 were made like this but don’t hold me to that ,4cyd flat head 3 speed 4×4 dual shifters most of these jeeps are right hand drive but this one was never converted and it has a factory lift don’t know if it was meant to run 35s but it is, motor runs but needs 6 volt coil and battery and the key is broken off in the switch but can start with out that have ont drive shaft but not the other, body is pretty bad but the historic significance it is worth restoring also the roll bar is out of a cj-5 so it will have to be cut to fit oh and I do have the title. Call text or email 828-736-7461 A little more if u want to try and find this u are more than welcome some people like to say oh yea my neighbor has one of those but look closely at the front finder to hood height and the over all size of the jeep the open tale gate and the window does not fold down also the entry way or kick panel there is not one from factory its not a cj-3b or a cj-3a I have done a lot of research and found out very little maybe u will have more luck”

Joseph buys his first car, a 1951 Wagon

• CATEGORIES: Builds, Features, Willys Wagons This site contains affiliate links for which I may be compensated.

Joseph might look pretty young to own his first vehicle, but after a trip to Moab with his dad Pete, who runs the OWF, to attend the 2012 Willys Overland Rally Joseph caught a bad case of the Willys sickness. As his father knows to well, there is no cure for this dreaded disease.  With Joseph’s fate sealed, he decided to buy a wagon with his own money that he could rebuild himself (with some help from dad).

The wagon needs plenty of work, so they located a good donor frame that’s already been modified and strengthened, saving them lots of time and work.  They have collected some ’76 Wagoneer axles, XJ rear and YJ front springs to fit the already modified frame.  They also have located a variety of additional parts to help round out Joseph’s project.

You can follow Joseph’s build here: http://oldwillysforum.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=25&t=3549

Good luck Joseph!  I’m sure you’ll learn a lot 🙂
