1954 M-38A1 American Falls, ID $2500

• CATEGORIES: M-38A1 This site contains affiliate links for which I may be compensated.

Still needs some work completed, but looks like a solid foundation.

“1954 Willys M38A1, purchased this with plans to finish, plans have unfortunately have changed. It’s an original body, amateur restoration. Have pictures of when it was being restored. It’s definitely come a long ways!

It still needs to be finished, mechanically it may need a starter, battery, an obvious carb clean. It has been converted to a 12v system with electronic fuel pump. Tires are good, minimal surface rust. Could be finished as it sits and used for what it is, or if desired stripped and brought back to original.”

1953? M-38 Salt Lake City, UT $1200

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

The pic shows what it looked liked prior to disassembly. Seller listed this a 1953 CJ, but the body suggests it is an M-38.

“This is a 1953 cj3a. I started to rebuild the entire thing and then had other stuff come up. It is in pieces right now but it has everything you need to put it back together. It has had a V8 conversion. I have a title for it. I can even deliver it if you are close. Has disc brakes all around. Text or call me with questions.”

1947 CJ-2A & 1965 CJ-5 Moro, OR $450/each or $800

• CATEGORIES: CJ-2A, CJ5 This site contains affiliate links for which I may be compensated.

Could be a good price on both. Nice vintage Shakey’s Pizza sticker on the back of the 2A’s driver’s seat.

“Ok, so these things are beat up and rough and DON’T CURRENTLY RUN ! they were both “running when parked” but I don’t know much about them besides that, and I bought them out of a barn in this condition. Might have bad engines? might have good engines? I really have no clue !

Blue one: 1947? CJ2A , no windshield or passenger seat, rolls, steers and stops. Has a newer F head 4 cylinder engine (hence the box on the hood) NO TITLE $450

White one: 1965 CJ5 , no windshield or passenger seat, rolls, steers and stops. Has a F head 4 cylinder engine, comes with DMV paperwork signed by last registered owner to obtain title. $450

Or buy both for $800 !

I am NOT into the typical craigslist B.S. games like “send me 20 more pictures” or “will you hold it for a week until I get my welfare check” or “want to trade for a crappy dirt bike” or ” take two-hunnerd?” or “still got them?” or “what’s the lowest you’ll go?” etc.etc.etc. Don’t expect much! they are not $5000 Jeeps for $450, they are $450 Jeeps !!!!!!!!”

UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $1800.

Doesn’t run.

“This is my 1946 Willys CJ2A Jeep. It has been previously been stored in a barn for the past 25+ years and I are looking to sell. Everything is original except for the tires and rims, which makes this truly a barn find. There are not many more like this one. Original 4 cylinder motor, 4 wheel drive, 3 speed manual transmission. It is currently not running, and the motor is seized up. Although, I have not done any work to it. This Jeep will make for an awesome project or a great restoration vehicle. ”

ABOUT JEEP: 1951 Jeep Willys M38 Tactical Truck 1/4 Ton. The Willys M38 United States Army Jeep, also known as the Willys MC, replaced the World War II Willys MB and Ford GPW models. It was a 1/4 ton 4 × 4 utility truck manufactured between 1949 and 1952 with a total production of more than 60,000 units. The M38 was military version of the then-current civilian Jeep CJ-3A. The M38 differed from the CJ-3A in numerous ways, including a reinforced frame and suspension, waterproof 24-volt electrical system, sealed vent system for the engine, transmission, transfer case, fuel system and brake system. Some M38 jeeps were assigned to the Korean theater of operations, but the majority of vehicles used in that conflict were rebuilt WWII vintage. Approximately 2,300 M38 Jeeps were manufactured by Ford of Canada for Canadian Armed Forces in 1952, designated as the M38-CDN jeep. Its successor was Willys M38A1.

Here’s an August 1940 Spokane Daily Chronicle article that is a reminder the name “Jeep” was used prior to the construction of the first Bantam jeep. In this case, it was used on the Minneapolis-Moline NTX tested at Camp Ripley. That vehicle sold for $29,000 at auction.

Given the CJ-5 on the sign, it is safe to say that this isn’t earlier than 1955.
