1946 CJ-2A Woodland, Wa $2500

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

Update:  Price dropped to $2500 

The add says '45 Willys, but the body looks to be 46 or greater, so I'm calling it a 1946 CJ-2A.  It appears driver's side step isn't there, so likely some rust underneath.  Also, the ad says roll bar, but it looks to be a full cage.  Woodland is north of Portland.

"45 Willy's stock motor never had the head off runs and drives great nice top newly recoved seats, newer rancho suspension,roll bar $3000 OBO"

1947 CJ-2A Minnesota Status?

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

Was listed at $5700

This is a nicely modified CJ-2A called “Quick Change”.  The builder built a similar drive train to what I’m doing, except for using a 289 where I’m using a buick 3.8.  We even have the same rims.

“This is a jeep I picked up a while back. It has been trail riding since 1981 and has the little trail ride plates on the dash. It is a modded steel body with very little rust by some trail scars. Specs are:  1947CJ2a, Chevy 283 V8 (I was told this was a stroker…no way to prove it without dissasembly), Torker intake, Tall chevy aluminum valve covers, Edelbrock carb with the offroad needles and seats (works awesome off road)…..”

Builds — Craig Ellis’ M-38

• CATEGORIES: Builds, Features, M-38 This site contains affiliate links for which I may be compensated.

I don’t know whether Craig is finished with his jeep or not, but he certainly had some terrible rot to deal with.  I’ve linked to the ‘Golden Triangle Jeep Club’s’ bulletin board for this Build story.  Below is the pic of Craig’s M-38 body:

you could draw a line down the middle of the body and replace all of the driver’s side floor to be safe. i’m gonna avoid catalog bought floor panels and construct my own from 16 gauge sheetmetal along with new crossmembers. i got a pair of Wagoneer Dana 44s last weekend and am working on the suspension, which will be stock waggy leafs in the front and YJ leaves out back. I picked up a Chevy 4.3 V6 to use and can’t decide on which tranny to go with, but i’m thinking SM465 b/c Novak offers a really short adapter to the Dana 18 case….”

View all the rest of Craig’s pics and related comments (10 pages) as he works through various issues.

1951 & 1952 CJ-3A, Forks Wa, $1750

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

UPDATE:  Tom Florenz just let me know that these jeeps are still available. 

These will require a closer look.

"2 for the price of 1. Clear titles. Don't run. Have extra transfer case with pto. 52 needs an engine, clutch and one of the transfer cases installed, and the steering finished converted. The 51 looks to be as stock as I know with the L134 engine. After I got it home and cleaned out the junk I found most of the engine parts. It will need to be rebuilt. the 51 could be towed the 52 will have to be trailered. More pictures available. originally purchased to honor a fallen Marine (former student). No heart to finish the job."

Between the tires, gears, winch and roll cage, this looks trail ready to me.

1944 MB Renton, WA **SOLD**

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

UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $3000

“Wedding and new home forces sale of my toy. This jeep is in very good condition. I recently put a 4″ lift and brand new 33×13.5 Super Swampers on it. It has a Ford straight six in it with a 3spd and 538 gears so it gets along well. I believe the engine is a 200 out of an early 60’s Ford. Runs, drives, and has collector vehicle license plate so it never needs license/tabs. Title in hand. I will try to post some pictures soon, but I am hoping someone will save me the trouble. Joe”

This jeep has been for sale for a few months now, but hasn’t been listed in a while.

“Here is a nice running little jeep. In stock condition with all original running gear and flathead 4 cylinder engine. Drives good and looks decent. Has had 12volt upgrade on electrical. New tires, wheels, brakes, carb, recovered seats. Has tow-bar, bikini top, and spare front axle assembly that goes with it. 4 wheel drive works great.

My Builds — all the engine parts home

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

I picked up the last of the buick v6 engine parts yesterday and they are all home.  Lyle and Bob at Bob's Mechanical were great to deal with and very reasonably priced.  The last of the new bearings (crankshaft and rod bearings) and rings should arrive on Friday.  All the parts are clean and the cam bearings are in place, so it should be a pretty straight forward build (famous last words).  

Since I'll be gone most of next week in Seattle, I've decided to put the engine together the week after next and invite my children (ages 14, 12 & 10) to participate.  That should make the process more interesting!
