Some good bones for a Jeepster project, but does have some floor rust. Thanks to Bill for sharing. Price is negotiable.

“This solid 1950 Jeepster has been parked in an airline hanger since 1982 an owner parked and never used after that this is a basket case but very solid body for sure less the four floor pans. The engine is tight at this point and I’ve been told that everything needed to complete the restoration is in the vehicle less a few minor things that I have discovered. Same owner since 1959 I just lost interest in the vehicle, the photos tell a story for the most part and I as a collision professional I’m selling this for a good agent friend of mine who is unhealthy and doesn’t enjoy the selling process I looked closely at the jeep today and impressed with a solid body and it looks to be accident free, four-cylinder three speed and the keys are with the vehicle ”

Meyer CJ-5 Hardtop Shelbyville, IL $250

Seller indicates this would fit a 2A, but it would do so poorly. The top is disassembled and a little rough, but the price seems good.

“Jeep hard top which needs restored. Pretty solid and all the glass is in it. Have metal doors to go with it but need restored as well. The door glass is there. The top and doors were disassembled to restore but got a different top, so did not finish the restore. This is a FCFS and no holding. If it is listed then it is available and when it is sold it will be marked sold. I believe this top is for an older jeep CJ5 but will fit others. I have had it on my CJ5 but I am sure it will fit a CJ2a as well.”

1947 CJ-2A, Boat, Trailer Banner, WY **SOLD**

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

UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $13,500.

(08/06/2022) This combo package includes a CJ-2A, boat and trailer. I have no idea what the value of the boat and trailer would be. It has a Porter & Reed hardtop.

“Here is the ultimate travelers package. Jeep, boat, and trailer. The Jeep is in good condition and is great for any outdoor enthusiast. The Jeep is a 1947 Willys Jeep CJ2A. The mileage is unknown. Facebook wanted a number so we we made something up. The boat is a 12’ 1962 Montgomery Wards Sea King Jon Boat. The motor is a 1942 Montgomery Wards 3.5 HP. The boat comes with the trailer. The package also includes a 11’ trailer for the Jeep. This is a great package for anyone that enjoys the outdoors and loves to fish.”

===================

Originally posted April 10, 2019: During WWII Brook Stevens developed a couple different Command Car concepts. All the pics of these can be seen at the Milwaukee Art Museum’s site.

1. The first one is a 6×6 vehicle. It was made into an actual vehicle. I don’t know what happened to it. I’m pretty sure I have a press photo fo this vehicle somewhere, but I can’t seem to find it. This very well could be on the same platform as other 6x6s of the era.

These two photos of the M-274 Mule were posted to the Toledo Region History and Memorabilia Facebook Page by Nelson Shaffer, who found the photo at the UAW Local 12 Office in Toledo. I’m not sure why this has a placard for the 1/4 and 1 ton trailers on it?
