Year? CJ-2A Corning, CA $1200

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

Given the parts, there might be some value here. Check out the reinforced frame and helper springs in the rear. Also note the way the rear PTO gear is angled out the back of the bumper. So many questions!

1948 Jeepster Sanger, CA $15,200

Seller believes this to be the original paint, but I don’t see this as an option with the paint chips from 1948-1949.

Riding to the Rescue: A look back at LA County’s Rescue Vehicles

• CATEGORIES: Features, Fire/Police/Industry Vehicles, Willys Trucks, Women & Jeeps This site contains affiliate links for which I may be compensated.

UPDATE: This updated post from 2012 now includes photos taken by David Carr at LA County’s Cabrillo Beach.  The three photos below are on a wall as part of a “wall-of-fame”.

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

From June 28, 2012: Over the past 100 years Los Angeles County has used a variety of vehicles to manage their beaches.  As part of a retrospective, the article below shows a few of them, along with welcoming some new hybrids into the County system.  All photos belong to LA County’s Life Guard Association.

Here are two GPWs (the pics were from a now defunct blog):

Bathing beauties were still posing on county lifeguard trucks in 1959.

Buz unearthed this CJ-2A Life Guard Jeep used by the city of Los Angeles (vs. the county).  Though the caption accompanying the jeep suggests this was war surplus, it’s clear this is a civilian rig. The rear extension is interesting, though doesn’t look neatly done.

1949 “Swiss Army” CJ Fayetteville, AR $17,500

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

Listed as a 1949 CJ-2A Swiss Army Jeep and claimed to be “an original Swiss Army Willys Jeep”, this looks to me to be a refurbed CJ-3A with a reproduction MB body and, possibly, an MB engine. So, how ‘original’ it is isn’t clear.

It is true the Swiss Army used a wide range of jeeps, including MBs, CJ-2As, CJ-3As, M-38A1s, CJ-3Bs, CJ-5s, and Wagons (https://cj3b.info/Military/SwissArmy.html).
