Check out the rims on the CJ-2A. I’ve never seen rims quite like those. I don’t have any specific information, other than the pics.

Welcome to eWillys.com, a website for vintage jeep enthusiasts. I update this website nearly every day with jeep deals, jeep history, interesting reader projects, jeep related info, and more.
These quick searches can help you find things on eBay. People list in the wrong categories all the time, so don't be surprised to see brochures in the parts area for example.
The links to posts below show jeeps grouped by models, condition, and other ways. Some of these jeeps are for sale and others have been sold. If you are unsure whether a vehicle is still for sale or not, email me at d [at] ewillys.com for more info.
There are plenty of interesting, unusual, historic and surprising stories related to Jeeps and their owners. In addition, some of these features have nothing to do with jeeps. This link will display all featured stories starting from the latest.
Looking for parts and not sure where to go? There are a variety of large and small new and used parts sellers both online and offline.
Importantly, the allure of buying a project jeep can be romantic. The reality of restoring a jeep can be quite different, expensive and overwhelming without the right tools and resources. So, tread carefully when purchasing a "project". If you have any concerns about buying a vintage jeep, or run across a scam, feel free to contact me for help, comments or concerns .

I believe those same rims were on that 6×6 custom M-38 you featured late last year. That may have been from Bali as well.
those are cool rims and a cool looking jeep too…did you check out the headlights?
that first jeep is an MB or GPW…..9-slot grille, full floater, short sheet metal panel windshield frame without Willys stamping, correct military style bracketry for a military top, no provisions for a civillian top….it does have a CJ2A hood…..it could be a civllian tub on a military frame, but i would still lean to this one being more millitary than civillian 🙂
still a nice find….i would love to see more of it….
Check out the .50 cal. ammo can mounted transversely just behind the passenger side fender.
On jeep#1 the contraption behind the windshield appears to be a pair of binoculars mounted on top of a motion picture camera. It seems that Balibubba thought of everything.
Bob: Your are correct on the rims. You can just make them out on the rear of the 6×6 (I didn’t notice them previously) http://www.ewillys.com/?p=50714.
Mike: I noticed the rear hubs about the time I was going to post and pondered what type of franken jeep it might be. Then I looked at the clock and thought I’d better get bed, so I published it as is 🙂
I have some larger images I can send you directly that will allow you to explore it a little more if you are interested.
The grille on the second Jeep looks a little funky, don’t know if it’s modified or non Willys. The driver must have been a short little dude for the seat back roll bar to have offered any protection.
I’ve seen that funky grille somewhere before .. but can’t remember where.
That grille kind of looks like the one on the jeep in the Kruse museum you posted a while back. It’s the Jeep with the leakage issue on the museum floor.
