1948 CJ-2A Mesa, AZ **SOLD**

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

UPDATE;  **SOLD** Was on eBay.

This builder of this nice looking jeep never got a chance to enjoy it much. The body looks M-38.

“1948 Willy’s Overland Jeep CJ2A. This vehicle was left to my wife after her father passed away and I will describe it and answer questions to the best of my ability. All steel body professionally painted in real John Deere green and yellow, paint is new, original flat head four cylinder motor and overdrive transmission (which I’m told is very hard to find). Steering has been upgraded, brake master cylinder has been upgraded to a dual reservoir, all wiring is new, all brakes are new, brand new super lift soft ride lift kit, brand new shocks, brand new wheels and BFG tires, brand new swing out tire carrier with hitch, brand new upgraded plastic gas tank, LED tail lights, heavy duty front bumper with 8000lb winch, tow bar and mounts, flaming river SS tilt steering column, bucket seats with harnesses in the front, original Jeep rear seat (I’m told these are hard to find also), full roll bar, bimini top, warn brass hubs, optima battery, custom billet rear view mirror and roll bar mounts. He bought the speedometer used and it say 9K on it but the Jeep has less then 50 miles on it since complete rebuild, my father-in-law finished this build and unfortunately got sick and passed away before he could enjoy it. It has been stored in my shop ever since and I start it up once a week and let it idle for an hour or so. I have listed the details the best I can, I have not driven it besides in and out of my shop and around the yard but he drove it around the neighbor once a week. I am sure I am missing some details so please ask and I will do my best to answer.”

2013 MVPA Conference in Portland, OR

• CATEGORIES: Bantam-FordGP-WillysMA-EarlyJPs, Features This site contains affiliate links for which I may be compensated.

UPDATE: It seems that a number of posts I’d created over the last few weeks hadn’t published correctly. My visit to the July MVPA Conference was one of them. So, there are a bunch of extra posts today!  Enjoy.

2013-07-26-pdx-mvpa-vern-dennis

Vern and Dennis in front of Vern’s Ford GP. Vern has restored a number of different jeeps. Dennis is working on his first, a 1943 GPW.

On my way to Seattle today I detoured through Portland so I could spend some time at this year’s MVPA Conference. The event was held at the Portland Expo Center. The event seemed well attended, with many different vehicles and vendors. There were over thirty jeeps, too!

2013-07-26-pdx-center

I couldn’t stay at the event too long, so I didn’t get a chance to mingle much. Besides Vern and Dennis, I spent some time talking with Joe from Vintage Wiring of Maine. He and Josh were discussing a wiring harness for Josh’s GPA project. I also spoke with the guys organizing the convoy trips that honor/celebrate some of the early trans US Highways. We discussed both using eWillys to promote the event and joining the 2015 Bankhead Route Convoy for part or all of the thirty day venture.

I’ve landed back in Renton for the next week. My mother has a long ‘sonny-do’ project list. I’ll also be disassembling Biscuit. I’m gonna be busy!

Here’s a bunch of pics from today. That’s all I have time for:
