Krage Motor Sports Auction Savannah, TN Sat. Nov 17

• CATEGORIES: Auctions, CJ-2A, CJ-3B • TAGS: This site contains affiliate links for which I may be compensated.

Bentley gave us a heads up on this.  There is a CJ-3B in parts, a CJ-2a, a VEC CJ-2A (mistakenly identified by the auctioneer as a military jeep), and a ton of parts and tools.  The VEC is particularly interesting as it appears to have full floating hubs, so it might be very VEC.

1946 VEC CJ-2A Wichita, KS **SOLD**

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

UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $1200

This had a V8 swap in it. It has very early data plates, which suggests it was a VEC.  It also has the tool indents. I can’t tell if it has a column shift still or not. It has the square washers on the windshield.

1945 VEC CJ-2A Minneapolis, MN $6000

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

This looks like a good restoration project.

“This is a super early 1945 cj2A first year of the civilian jeeps. This is serial # 10207 or the 207th civilian jeep ever made. There are only a few known with an earlier number. Vehicle is numbers matching engine, frame and data tags. Was switched to a cain shifter but I have the correct side shifter transmission and column shift steering column. I bought it a few years ago drove it off the transport and have stored it since. I am not able to find the time to restore this as it should be.

The good:
It is solid. Numbers correct and very early. Only the first couple of hundred had no data tag on the firewall and an extra tab on the rear soft top bow storage bracket. The engine was gone through right before I bought it and it does not need to be rebuild it is in good condition. I have turned it over every few months the past couple years but have not started it. It ran perfect when taken off the trailer.

The bad:
The only rust I can see is in the driver side step. It clearly needs to be restored but nearly everything is there and correct. The only things I know it to need are the horn, and solid wheels. I may have the seat. Has no brakes they would need parts.

I do have extra parts that are not included in the price but I can help source anything if you need the help.

Vehicle is sold as is. It is a fair price for a very early project. It is a really nice start since so much is there and correct and the body is solid. Rust and needing rare parts cost a lot of money!

1946 VEC CJ-2A Bonney Lake, WA **SOLD**

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

UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $1500

There’s still value here, despite the lunatic who modified the back.

“One of the very first of the civilian Jeeps produced after the end of World War II. The column shift was Willys attempt to break away from the military era and appeal as a everyday driver. This does run and everything mechanically functions. All stock with original running gear. L-head 134 engine, t-90 trans, and model 18 transfer case. This was however the victim of a lunatic that started to fix a little rust in the tub and ended up cutting the rear of the tub up. I have another tub to go with it. Front sheet metal is in good condition and the 2A flip-out windshield frame is in very good shape. This is a great project that is worth restoring.”

1945 VEC CJ-2A Idaho **SOLD**

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

UPDATE:  This popped up for sale last night for only $800!  I knew it would go quickly, so I notified an Idaho reader about it late last night.  He called this morning (first person to call) and had a deal worked out to pick it up tomorrow.  The reader called at lunch to ask an additional question, only to learn the seller sold it out from underneath him to someone else.  I hope the buyer knows what they got.

The serial number (verified by a photo that I didn’t download) was #10300.

“This is a very early 1945 Willys CJ2A Jeep. The VIN is 10300 which makes it number 300!! Transmission is froze-up. Would be a great project.”
