1946 CJ – MB Theme Custom Pickup Body $19,800 Morton Grove, Il
Peter sent over this pretty neat Willys Jeep looks like an early CJ with a classic MB theme and paint scheme along with a custom back half truck bed made from a Bantam trailer. IMO which always changes based on lots of more experienced folks helping out not for the 100PT stock club this looks like it is a fully custom rig. But a pretty useful rig and could be a fun truck to gather a crowd around and talk Jeep with at the end of the Parade. The extra 2 feet out back can hold some stuff for sure. I like that’s its different and that it has a lot of accessories to fit the theme of this one. If you are interested in looking this over and adding a unique driver to your fleet please contact Peter.
Doing some research on this one the one site has this listed as 42680 as the SN so it puts it solid into 1946. Going by the information on the great CJ2A page it’s really a few hundred from the middle of the serial numbers listed for 1946 coming in just under midway.

Cool looking Jeep…Tons of inaccurate info in this ad…
fun idea. i have seen a few like this, but not sure a hobbled together rough bodied rig , is a ” great investment”
Looks like Johnny Cash might have built it, “one piece at a time”.
I like it. Fun for hauling around the kids, not the historians.
