Engine is out, but has been rebuilt.

“1944 Jeep Willys MB for sale. This is going to be a great project Jeep for someone looking to restore a rare WWII era jeep. Considering its age, it is very complete. It does not run and the engine is out of it, but is included in price, already rebuilt! I was going to rebuild it, but I have new baby on the way and won’t be ale to devote the time and money it would require. I’m just trying to get back what I paid for everything. There is an extra Willys Jeep motor included, but not rebuilt.”

Year? CJ-5 South Carolina

Walter spotted this CJ-5. It looks pretty stock.  This might make a good stock restoration if the rust is only at the surface.

“Not sure of exact year 1964-1971. Needs fuel pump. Would like to trade for pontoon trailer, boats, golf carts, atvs. Open to all trades.”

Miracle of America Museum, Polson, MT

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

Dan pointed me to the Miracle of America Museum, mentioning there was an old Ford A vehicle mounted to tracks.  The museum is still run by Gil Mangels, who co-founded the museum in 1981 with his wife, who passed away in 2012.  The museum is located 70 miles due north of Missoula. Looks like a fun place to visit.

After looking through the eclectic collection of items, I figured they might have a jeep or two. I found a M-38A1, a possible MB/GPW, and M-151.

UPDATE: **SOLD** Was on eBay

(12/16/2012) Looks like a nice rig. Lots of detail pics. However, a variety of minor updates keep it from looking “like it was in 1948 from the factory”.

“This is a rare, 1948 Jeep CJ2A Willys that will take you to the car shows to win trophies or will take you across the desert. ONLY 570 MILES SINCE FULL RESTORATION. Jeep is new.
