1952 CJ-3A McGregor, MN Auction

• CATEGORIES: CJ-3A This site contains affiliate links for which I may be compensated.

The auction is July 8th.

“This 1952 Willys Jeep will be offered for sale at the McGregor Loins auction Saturday July 8, 2017 located at the McGregor Community Center, auction starting at 10:00am

This 1952 Willys Jeep was reported to be in running condition when put into storage several years ago. The body is very sound for the age and should be a candidate for a full restore. We have installed a new battery and the engine does crank over but so far does not fire. We do have a clean MN Title.

A non stock air cleaner has been installed at some time in the past, the round addition to the hood is to accommodate the air cleaner.”

Year? CJ-3A Salado, TX $860

• CATEGORIES: CJ-3A This site contains affiliate links for which I may be compensated.

UPDATE: Still Available.

Hard to say how much value is here.

“For Sale: Willys CJ3A open jeep. No title. No data plate. No known history on this jeep.
This jeep is a rolling chassis, complete, less motor, transmission and transfer case. I do have the driveshafts, and the suspension and axles are complete. Wheels are 15’s.
The Jeep body Tub is extremely rough, borderline for parts–repaired and re-repaired over 70 years of hard hunting and ranch life. The frame is solid, definitely restorable. Tub has had the tailgate and tailgate hinges removed and a piece of steel was welded in place of the tailgate. Front clip is clean. I do have a stamped grill with headlight buckets for it. This Jeep is equipped with Warn lock-out hubs on the front axle that function perfectly. The rear axle retainer caps are missing some of the retaining bolts.
First $860 for the entire jeep takes it. All four 15 inch wheels hold air and will roll right up on to your trailer–I have a tractor and can push it up for you. This is a long way from drive-able, but a very good starter.

CASH ONLY. I can deliver for gas and mileage, but will only do so after the jeep has been paid for in full in person.
Thanks”

1947 CJ-2A Madison, WI $5000

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

UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $5000.

It’s not clear to me whether this runs or not, but seller has a video of it running. It needs work.

“1947 Willys Jeep CJ2A Military Restoration
1947 painted to resemble an old military version. It was a little more complicated and expensive than I thought but it will last a long time now and be alot of fun for the kids for years to come.

I replaced the brakes from the master cylinder, lines to brake cylinders and replaced the pads and two drums, plus the emergency brake. New shocks, tires (original WWII bi-directional), a new bell housing, clutch plate, new radiator, hoses, belts and seats. We degreased the thing 3 times before I had it sand blasted and painted. Restored in 2001 and pretty much garage parked since. Engine is original and in pretty good shape. Still has the original bucket body with bullet holes ! (Well, painted rust holes)

It has been covered up over the winter. But it ran fine last summer. Let me know if you want to see it, I will uncover it for you. I am not getting auto insurance for it this summer. So you wont be test driving it except on my driveway. I do have a current video of it running so you can hear the engine

I have about 30 current photos so let me know what you would like to see !”

DJ-3A Gas Pedal Linkage

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

UPDATE: More DJ-3A carb info here:

On Thursday evening I spent time moving parts from Patterson’s stock, but tired,  DJ-3A engine to Rusty’s rebuilt M-38 engine so I could install it in Patterson. One item that caught my attention was Patterson’s DJ gas pedal linkage versus Rusty’s. Patterson’s appeared stock, while Rusty’s had a modified pivot point, probably the result of using the M-38 block. I decided to keep Patterson’s as it was and recreate the part for Rusty’s engine.

DJ-3A gas pedal Linkage: The linkage goes through the firewall to a pivot point on the driver’s side. When the gas pedal is depressed, a rod pushes an angle piece around a pivot, forcing a second rod upwards to a YF 2392S carb, causing the gas flow to increase.

Patterson’s real pivot piece (and it seems I misspelled carburetor in my pic).

This shows the piece after removing the parts. The pivot bolt is solid on the end with a hole for a cotter pin.

Example of what I removed from Rusty (bottom) and the bolt I will use to make a new one (top with new threads extended up it so I can add a bolt). The biggest problem with the custom piece at bottom is that it had no cotter pin. It was only held on by a bolt, which could have easily have come unscrewed as the gas pedal pivot piece moved back and forth.
