“This is a parts jeep… It is pretty complete and is rough… The body has been skinned and they a really good job..This jeep has the 3 on the tree column shift trans with the L flat head engine which is all there… As said pretty complete just rough”

Somebody likes painting with purple (or indigo or violet … you be the color judge).

“This is a 1946 cj2a. It is considered an “early” model with a vin 19,xxx. It has a title. It has an “F” head motor from a later model which is a little bit taller and so there is a hood scoop to accomidate the carb. It runs good and has a solid body that has been patched up. The only issue is it needs a new clutch assembly($125) oh yeah and its painted purple.”
