1948 CJ-2A Houston, TX $5950

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

Need some work.

https://houston.craigslist.org/cto/d/houston-1948-willys-cj-2a/7163421282.html

“This Jeep has an engine from a 1953 Jeep, so it is not the original flathead. It runs good but the brakes are not working. The Jeep has spent all but the last few years in north Texas. It has some rust, as you’d expect. I bought it from a friend of mine and he threw in another motor, an engine block, and some other parts. I was planning to work on this, but I’ve not touched it in three years. It needs to go to someone who will give it the attention it needs.
I have the original title and many years of subsequent registration receipts. It’s a great window of history.”

UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $6000.

It needs some love.

year-m151a1-alvin-tx1 year-m151a1-alvin-tx2 year-m151a1-alvin-tx3 year-m151a1-alvin-tx4

“Barn Find M151A1 made by Ford. UNCUT, and rolls freely. Tires all hold air. Disconnected fuel, hooked up batteries, and poured fuel in the carb and it fired right up and ran until it ran out of fuel in the carb. didn’t want to run with the the fuel tank hooked up until i get the tank emptied and new fuel put in. All lights work with exception of one headlight. Transmission shifts fine. Comes with original seat cushions, and 2008 manufactured canvas A1 top with the two windows in rear. Has small rust areas as seen in the photos, but a FANTASTIC barn find.”

1963 CJ-3B Wheat Ridge, CO $7500

No pics provided. Pics will require unpacking the jeep from the garage, but, to be fair, I am not sure how a person is supposed to evaluate it without being able to see it?

“Hi, inherited my father’s 1963 CJ3B High Hood Jeep.
It has an honest 70XXX miles on it.
Dad never washed it after taking elk hunting for several years and it was badly rusted.
I got a new body – stamped from the original dies, I think it was made in the Philippines.
I had it professionally mounted and painted in the original baby blue. The shop that did to work did an excellent job of transferring every single little piece over. If you did not know, It looks absolutely original.
I started to fix it up and life changed. It continues to change and I think the smart move is to let it go.
A vehicle is a tough thing to hang onto for sentimental reasons.
It has not been started since about 2004. It’s sitting on flat tires, the seats are totally shot. The top is old but in very good shape.
It is sort of buried in the garage, except I never ever set stuff on it – or even leaned anything against the new ( now well cured from 2004 ish) paint.
If your a serious possible buyer, please let me know. I can help you get it out if we go forward.
Because of how it is in the garage, it would be nearly impossible to get pictures. Don’t ask.
Just reply if you’re seriously interested. Low ball bullshit will be ignored”
