“I am selling my 1947 CJ2A. This is a great jeep! Starts, runs and drives great! Tow bar for pulling behind. I replaced the starter about a year ago. Leaks a little oil. There is a small crack in the windshield frame that is easily fixable but the glass is in perfect shape. 3 speed, high and low range 4 wheel. Transmission and transfer case work great. The driver seat has been modified for a little extra leg room.
Clean title”

I don’t know why, but sometimes the video comes up “video unavailable” within this page. If it doesn’t work, try this link: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=k1oVABc12js

GPW in the National Auto Museum in Torino, Italy

Barry went on a recent trip to Torino, Italy. There, he visited Italy’s National Auto Museum, where he spotted this Ford GPW. It was only one of three US vehicles in the museum.

He added, “Jeep is a big name in Italy since acquired by Fiat. From the marker it looks like they are trying to associate this with the modern “Jeep” name. Excellent display of over 200 European autos dating back to the late 1800’s”
