1946 CJ-2A Douglas, AZ $5000

• CATEGORIES: CJ-2A, CJ5 • TAGS: This site contains affiliate links for which I may be compensated.

The seller neglects to mention the body is made up of a CJ-2A and CJ-5 (and is damaged).

“I have a 1946 willys CJ2A jeep that has a clean title and is a daily driver. It still has the original flat head motor and 3 speed transmission. The 4wheel drive works and it has been painted with historically accurate WWII symbols. It has been converted to a 12 volt system. I am looking to sell or trade for custom motorcycle or possibly other good condition running classic (50s-60s) vehicles and 2nd amendment items. lots of work has been done on this jeep to get it running right.

-new tires
-new paint
-original flat head motor

-new master cylinder and brake lines
-new ball joints
-new gauges
-all new wiring
-seats reupholstered
-new starter
-new alternator

The photo is dated 12/09/no year. I suspect this is photo from a mid 1950s South Padre Island Jeep Jamboree in Texas.

“This is an original press photo. This rugged stretch was a typical part of the obstacle course “Over hill, over Dale, we will hit the dusty trail —-” Only here the dusty trail appears to hit back! This is a typical stretch of the rugged terrain through which the Jeeps traveled in the obstacle course event of the jeep jamboree. Autos – Jeeps Photo measures 10 x 8.25inches. Photo is dated 12-09-NONE.”

Garwood Dump-O-Matic Hoist Orlando, FL $4000

• CATEGORIES: Advertising & Brochures, Features, Willys Trucks • TAGS: This site contains affiliate links for which I may be compensated.

Steve spotted this unique dump hoist.

“Antique Dump Hoist For Willy’s Jeep Utility Pick up, 1/2 ton, late 1950’s to early 1960’s, with 226 inline 6 engine.
Had this hoist installed on a 1953 Willy’s Utility Pickup, Belt driven, with mechanical clutch.
Now the hoist is installed on a custom utility trailer built with a 1960 Willy’s Utility Wagon Frame and is operated with an electric power unit.
Have engine driven pump, tank, and hoist.
Have original manufacturer parts, installation, and instruction books plus some original blueprints.
The cylinders had to be replaced due to damage from moisture. The new cylinders are of the same dimensions and the cylinder bases were reused to retain the same mounting to the hoist frame.
This hoist will only fit the old style Willy’s Utility Pick up.
Cash is desired. Can arrange for shipping, but cost of shipping is above the asking price, and payment is required in advance.”

Just a Few Updates Tuesday

• CATEGORIES: News This site contains affiliate links for which I may be compensated.

UPDATE: Ann was in quite a bit of pain last night. The pain was so intense that she could barely talk. After an hour or so at the VA’s ER, the doc was able to alleviate the sharp pains she felt in Ann’s head and left eye, but they could not locate the source of the problem. A CT scan revealed nothing. 

We returned home this evening. The pain is much less (she is joking around), but she still can’t sit up for long without nausea (I made her a big bed in the back of the jeep). So, we will see how things progress …

– Dave

Just a few updates today. We are at the hospital in Seattle and coverage is spotty. Ann has an issue and we are trying to figure out what is happening.
