UPDATE:  Still Available

(07/26/2011) This has a rear PTO and was a column shift before a conversion.

“Vintage 1946 Jeep CJ2A. One owner since about 1947. Regularly serviced. Garaged for all of its life and not used for the past 25 years. Engine has been started regularly. First civilian model after WWII. Had shifter on steering column, but has been converted to a floor shift. Original flat head engine has also been replaced with the overhead valve four cylinder ‘hurricane’ engine. Large rear mounted PTO winch. Otherwise, most everything else is stock. In great shape with a ‘Koenig’ steel top. VERY little rust, if any? Repainted, upholstered and gone over mechanically in about 1956. Seats can use new upholstery. Carburetor rebuilt in 2006. Doesn’t burn oil or leak. Tires are all pretty good. Rims have a chrome ring on the rim. Everything works good. Runs great. Great for original restoration or drive it as is. Serious parties please E-mail to discuss price.”

A reader named Chad inherited this jeep from his Grandfather.  He hopes it gets a good home. It looks like it would be a good restoration candidate.

“1948 Jeep Willys CJ2A for sale. The jeep sat in a barn since 1999. It ran drove into the parking spot that I picked it up from. There is very little rust. The floor boards and rear pan are in excellent shape. It was repainted at some point to the light blue color. It has original engine and it runs. Brakes work but are spongy due to the rubber getting a little soft. I have both seats, however only had one in for the pictures. Comes with full size spare rim and tire.”
