UPDATE: **SOLD** Was on eBay.

This stock jeep in original condition includes a Sears trailer.

You are bidding on a 1946 CJ2A Willys Jeep.  This jeep has not been restored and is in original condition.  As you can see in the photos the life of this jeep is easily documented from the day it was ordered until today.  It started out life in New Hampshire where it was purchased for farm life.  Shortly after purchase the owner died and the jeep sat for many years.  A car collector who lived next to the farm took the jeep in but never used it.  That is who I purchased it from and have been the proud owner for the past 20+ years.  Please note that Connecticut is not a title state, so I do not have a title to go with this jeep.  I never got one and can not supply you with a title.   The jeep, in perfect running condition, has 7218 miles on it as of today.  Hopefully you can see in the photos how nice the body is, but if you can’t and you would like to come see the jeep in person and give it a test drive you are more than welcome to come and inspect it for yourself.   (read more below)

The O.E. Szekely CJ-3A APU Navy Jeeps

March 25, 2013 • CATEGORIES: Features • TAGS: , . This site contains affiliate links for which I may be compensated.

I’ve been assembling some information on the O.E. Szekely and Associates Navy Jeeps built from CJ-3A parts. These were used to act as “Self-propelled electric power plants” on land and on battleships. They were made in three-wheeled and four-wheeled versions.

There is also a report that O.E. Szekely served 3 1/2 years in the USNR. This may have given him the contacts necessary to arrange the contract(s) for the APU Jeeps.

Link to a discussion on the CJ-3A Page
Link to a discussion at G-503.com
Some great photos from WillysArgentina of APUs

1. UPDATE: I dont’ know why I labeled this an APU. It was definitely in the Navy, but after further review, I see no reason to think it was a Szekely jeep. It is a Four wheel CJ-3A with a L-head that was listed here http://www.ewillys.com/2010/04/28/1951-navy-cj-3a-denver-co-ebay/

2. Four wheel CJ-3A APU with a F-head (and hood bump). The two extra gauges were added as well. Here are a couple pics of Tom’s jeep.

Lots of pics available of this jeep.

“This Jeep has been carefully rebuilt from the ground up over 3 years by my father, a retired certified ASEA mechanic. Starting from a sandblasted frame, new-off-shelf (N.O.S) parts were used whenever possible. Every piece has been carefully rebuilt and reassembled – you won’t find a cleaner, or more authentic rebuild of a 1947 Willy’s. Lots of fun to take off-road, or cruise around town with the windshield down. See below for details on each component. “
