UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $2800.

A reader named Terry alerted me to this sale.

“1946 Willys CJ2A Jeep Serial Number 56566

I am selling this Jeep because I am ill with a progressing brain disease and there is more work to be done on this Jeep than I expected. Transmission is inoperable, locked in neutral, and needs replacement or rebuilding. Steering gear needs work. Engine is perfection, runs like a dream.  I originally purchased it with the idea that it would take the place of my Ural, so I could continue going out sight-seeing and exploring. … The Jeep’s original flathead, four-cylinder engine (engine #103462) has less than 300 miles on it since being completely rebuilt.”

This might be a pretty good price for only $1000 given the work that has been done.

“1946 Willys Jeep has rebuilt motor, transmission and transfer case. Needs generator, starter and brakes. Asking $1,000 obo. Any questions call Gene at 586-774-5168. Thanks for looking!”

It looks nice enough, but I just don’t think the seller makes a strong argument for the rather high asking price.

“1946 Jeep CJ2A that has had a complete body-off restoration.  Many items have been chromed and a new set of chrome wheels and tires.  The engine is original and has been completely gone through. The Jeep hasn’t gone more that 50 miles since being restored. Custom seats have been added and many other accessories.”

UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $3500

“I’m selling this CJ3a for $3500 firm. I recently put an original style L-Head back into it after the previous owner did a V6 conversion on it. This L-Head is a higher compression version of the original; a Kaiser Supersonic engine. It has excellent consistency of compression between the cylinders. This vehicle also has brand new (about 500 miles) BFG All-terrain 30×9.50-15s.
The vehicle just needs the ignition wired up to start and the exhaust is not installed, though I have all the pieces.”

UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $1200.

I always laugh when I see the “it ran when parked” comment.

“This is a WIlly’s jeep that is a project. I just want the thing out of my garage. My husband bought it from my brother five years ago and promised to have it running within a year. Now I just want my garage back. $1200 OBO…price is not firm
When the jeep was parked it was running with the new motor, but it needed new wiring. The jeep does have the hood, tailgate, and door frames…”

The seller is in the rockies somewhere ….
