CJ-2A Parts McCloud, CA **SOLD**

UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $500.

Obviously, the windshield is from an M-38 or a reproduction.
cj2a-parts-mccloud-ca2

cj2a-parts-mccloud-ca1“These are leftover parts from a restoration project I completed. The body is a CJ2A (the tail gate deleted). It’s in overall fair condition, and is still sound with mostly surface rust. However some “Bondo body work” was done to it and it’s quite thick in some places.
The hood is still in great shape with only a light layer of Bondo on top. It does have the traditional Willys script on it, and will fit most flat fender era Jeeps.
The fenders are CJ2A style, but should fit most flat fender era jeeps. They are also in good condition with little to no Bondo.
The windshield is in the best condition, with no Bondo, and the, presumably, original glass. It’s most likely an M38 windshield, but would fit any of the flat fender jeeps.
I was going to build another jeep, but as it turns out I’ve gotten too busy and it’s time to clean up the drive way. Sold as a bundle deal.”

“1949 Willys flat fender jeep for sale. Jeep does not run, but motor is free and there isn’t any reason it shouldn’t run, I just haven’t tried it yet. All original with everything here. Needs a restoration, in my opinion but I know some people have different taste. $2600, please don’t call unless your serious. If you suck at fixing things, this isn’t for you, buy a different one.”

Joe De Young spotted this trailer. It’s a good price. It appears one of the post bracket channels in the back was removed and replaced with a reflector.

Willys-Overland Tire Sidewall and Radiator Flush on eBay

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

Maury spotted these items. The 1/4 jeep looks almost like a high-hood, but given a Jeepster is shown, I’m guess it is actually a 2A or 3A. I would guess these are 1949 or 1950 containers.
