1948 CJ-2A North Wilkesboro, NC $2400
This is supposed to be a CJ-2A chassis, but I don’t see the older transfercase support on the outside of the frame (maybe it is a late ’48?). This may also have a Porter and Reed hardtop.

“48 Jeep. Have title but is not in my name can have it transferred to me first if you prefer. Partial restoration has begun. Motor has been rebuilt and frame has been painted. Probably needs some bushings etc replaced but overall in great shape. Body is rough and someone has started cutting panels but didn’t finish. All cut outs are there along with new fabricated panels. Some complete some not. Most parts are there. Even have a hard top roof for it and doors but the glass is broken. Still Restin but not Rusting anymore. Parts are Not for sale. ALL OR NOTHING”
