Glenn shared this rare half-cabbed Jeepster Commando.

“This Willys Jeepster is the 4X4 short bed clad in red and white. It has a Meyers 6′ plow – we bought it for plowing smaller areas. Seats presentable with brown leatherette. Body has some rust out – front and rear quarters and other areas. Previous owner was a mechanic who replaced original engine with a GM V6 and claimed engine was rebuilt. Jeep runs and drives. Auto transmission works and Meyers plow works good. A desirable little truck that would need panel repairs or drive as is.”

Needs to be finished.

“I have a Willys cj2a that needs finished. I have almost all new parts for it. I just don’t have time to finish it. Brand new tires and rims, water pump, fuel pump, master cylinder, all new guages. Floor has been replaced and welded. The only thing I think it needs is seats. I don’t have the title, but I checked the vin number it will be no problem to get a title.”

Not much of the original jeep left.

“I need to get rid of my steel bodied, 1944 Ford Jeep. I originally got it as a project vehicle for rock crawling. When I bought it, it was a hunting rig. It has a Ford 289 V8, adapted to the original 3 speed transmission. There’s virtually no rust. Has stout front and rear bumpers and a tow bar. It’s a perfect vehicle to build exactly how you want it for. Very flexible on price. I am also selling a 3 speed military transmission with transfer case. Make offer(s).”

Updates Later This Morning

UPDATE: This was supposed to be published this morning, but I was so tired last night I screwed it up .. so here it is, delayed ….

I’ll have a few updates around 9am PST.

I was busy all day Wednesday on Patterson, then worked until midnight on Alaska Or Rust stuff, so updates will be delayed. Here are some brief updates on Wednesday’s work:

  1. I reinstalled the heater blower switch. Success! All three speeds work.
  2. I’ve half-installed the R&P dual master cylinder mount. Since I’m going to pull the engine anyway, I will wait to finish the installation until after I’ve pulled the engine. It will make doing the brake lines much much easier.
  3. I pulled the rear main on Rusty’s engine and replace the bolts for the flywheel, then reinstalled the rear main and oil pan.
  4. I figured out that Patterson was originally painted either President Red or Cherokee Orange, which looks pretty red.

“Selling my old US Army WWII jeep. It’s a Ford made jeep, complete with lots of F marked parts. Willys was the other manufacturer of WWII jeeps and the MB is very similar. It is not restored and appears to have never been apart other than for some repairs over the years. It needs a full restoration if you want a perfect WWII jeep. As it is I had lots of fun in parades with it back around Y2K. Sure there are extra holes, rusted spots, missing parts here and there, and the gas tank is rotted as is the floor around it. There are four original WWII tires, one of which was used by a modern tire company to remake the molds for the WWII Firestone tires. I wouldn’t recommend driving it home, as you will want to install new tires and look at the brakes before you do any driving around on public roads. It could make a great display in a store, or a wonderful project.

I’m looking for the best offer on this one.. I’ll start at $7999, and won’t take $500. I really don’t want to sell it but the county is forcing my hand. Gotta love those tax appraisers. Its time for someone to give this jeep the home it deserves. I don’t have the funds to do a proper restoration, so I did my best to preserve what was there and doll it up a bit for parades. If you want to get down to the original olive drab Army paint, a lot of it is still there under the krylon spray paint. The blue stripe is an original marking.

“1948 Jeep CJ2A
This is a one of a kind WWII jeep! It’s most likely the only one like it in this area as most of them aren’t fully enclosed. If you want something that’s impossible to drive without smiling, this is for you. I believe its original purpose was for communications equipment during WWII based on a little research I’ve done.

Everything works like new! Ok, that’s a lie, but it does drive down the road. It has working 4 wheel drive and hi/low range that functions correctly. The tires are brand new and have great grip in the mud and woods. It’s almost comical how well it rolls over logs and anything you put in front of it including small trees.
