UPDATE: Still Available.

Unclear if it runs or not.

“We have a nice survivor CJ-2A Willy’s Jeep. The 4 cylinder has been replaced with a Buick V6 at some point it its life. The transmission is a stock T-90 3 speed. There is a Koenig PTO winch, tow bar and also a Koenig hard top with full doors. The body is in rather good shape for being as old as it is. Seats are not factory, Tires are good, great tread. This little Willy’s can be ready for hunting season if you hurry.”

UPDATE: Price dropped to $2250.

(06/18/2016) Appears to have an F-head.

“This a great old jeep. Too many toys forces me to sell. It has new brakes, hoses, gaskets, gas tank, and rear jump seat. This would be perfect for restoration or to drive now. The tires have lots of tread, it is licensed, and has a clear title. It has 12, 000 original miles on it.”

I spent yesterday sick in bed. That was good for watching some football, but no good for updates (nor did I check any email). There should be updates Tuesday morning.

1940 Bantam BRC Photo eBay

This is a great press release photo taken a little more than a week after the Bantam arrived at Holabird for testing. Thanks to Steve for finding it.

One thing I noticed about the photo. See how the dirt from behind the front fender was thrown onto the side of the jeep. I’m wondering if the thing we’ve called the step on the sides was actually not a step at all, but specifically designed as a mud flat to stop that from happening. I just never thought about it in those terms before (maybe I’m just behind the curve on that??).

“1940- Bantam prototype #1 during testing at Camp Holabird Quartermaster Depot.”

Original Post: Wagon is Still For Sale

One pic shows it with a roof carrier and another doesn’t. It sure has a great vintage look.

“Here is a very rare and nice original 2wd willys jeep overland woody look wgn. Has rebuilt 4cyl flat head and 3 on column shift & over drive . Has amazing interior for the year, needs a little body work and paint, very little rust. This little wagon drives so nice for a 49, a must see. You wouldn’t find another like it, $7500.”
