https://orangecounty.craigslist.org/cto/d/huntington-beach-1948-willys-cj2a/7077408517.html

“1948 CJ2a Jeep. 3 speed trans, 4 cycle original motor. Good condition mechanically, needs body TLC. no major rust. I have army green spec paint 1 gal for it. Have done much work on it. New battery, oil filter assembly, radiator, gas tank sending unit, thermostat, ignition switch, temp gauge, fuel pump(w/glass dome), water pump. Jeep has 11 dumps instead of 9 inch, better stopping ability, brakes were recently done. New spec steering wheel. No emergency brake though. I have a roll bar for it and the original radiator (no leaks) and parts. Seats are not original but are comfortable. It seems the transmission may have be rebuilt as well as the motor. No smoking on the motor and the trans is solid. I need the room so the jeep has to go.”

“Needs brakes and title.I can only guess why no titleVin tag screws on and is missing .As far as research online tells me its a 48 willys CJ2A only about 5k were made in 1948.134 4 banger runs im still messing with the fuel system but has a newer fuel tank.Trans Transfer case and diffs seem ok everything is hooked up to move under its own power but I have not messed with the brakes yet which im sure have dried out,NAPA still has parts for it.i have not tried to drive it yet.Little rust under the seats gauges work but speedo is gone.New 31 10.50 15 mud tires and original 16 inch wheels and tube tires can go too.it was a barn find and had been sitting for a very ling time and is very original parts wise.I can help set up a tow bar if you buy one itHarbor freight has them cheap.
Just testing the waters don’t have to sell.$1500 is firm.Might trade for something interesting that need a battery.”
