PROBLEM 1: My parts washer repaid my efforts at cleaning by developing a leak at the base of the pump. Not cool. Since this parts washer is older than some of the wagon wheel trails around here, I’m not entirely sure if I can find parts for it. It’s entirely possible it’s a custom tank. So, I get to spend this upcoming weekend removing the washing liquid and attempting to patch the leak.

So dear readers, what’s the bolt for? Is it important? I’ve got two images to the right. The image at the top shows the entire anchor plate. The second pic highlights a correct hole and the bottom image highlights the problem and shows the bolt that should go there? Do I need the bolt (of course, I’m sure I do)?
This is a nice looking CJ-2A with a slightly different type of paint job. Looks good.
“1946 Willys Flat Fender Jeep; mechanically restored; new top and new tires; good paint tagged and inspected, needs nothing…ready to drive for hunting or summer fun; $5500.00”
Here’s some pictures of Jim’s two Mighty Mites. He notes that they are a horror to work on. In two years, I’ve only seen two or three of these for sale on craigslist. They appear very hard to find.
Here’s the first one:

“This is a pretty original 1946 CJ2A. I don’t know a whole lot about it – only that it ran when parked. My dad and I received this jeep from a cousin in trade for something else. I think the pictures tell the story and I have more so email me if you’d like for me to send you additional pictures. I don’t have the wherewithal (mainly a lack of time) to do anything with the jeep at this time. If you see this ad, the jeep is still available. The only trade I would consider is a partial trade towards an uncut first generation Bronco with minimal rust and a straight body.”
“1941 Jeep needs some motor parts to run like fuel line and radiator hose. It was in World War 2. Body is in good condition. 3 speed.”

“A great project for you flat fender Jeep fans. This is a 1942 Ford built GPW Jeep basket case with many many parts. There are basically two Jeeps here, the ’42 is a genuine WWII era model complete with the built in ammo storage cans in the back, the flip up headlights and the Browning machine gun mounting plate built into the frame. The other is a 1946 civilian jeep. These represent 10+ years of accumulating the parts and pieces to build a WWII jeep that I never got around to doing. ”
I’m not sure if there are any ’42 parts left on this jeep.
“1942 ford , very strong 327 chevy , th400 transmission with 2800 stall converter and shift kit , pro stick shifter , dana 20 transfer case , dana 44 rear end with track lock posi , dana 30 front end welded , 35 inch tires , power steering with tilt wheel , power drum brakes , full roll cage , nice seats , no rust but there is bondo in the hood and front fenders , aluminum hard top , also have a good windshield frame for a soft top , not a real pretty jeep but it has alot of character and is alot of fun, runs and drives great and will go just about anywhere you have the guts to point it. $4000.00”
Purchase both CJ-3As for $900 or buy 1 for $500. Both run and go forward.

Here’s an example of how an M-38A1 can be improved with some paint, some parts, and creativity. As Jim notes, “from ugly yellow hunting jeep back to what it should be…”
