UPDATE: Still Available.
(09/07/2017) A project.
“I have a 1948 jeep I planned to restore but my priorities have changed. This is a simple vehicle to operate and work on, parts are readily available. No electronics whatsoever.Four Wheel drive,carburetor, mechanical fuel pump, etc. When a solar eruption or N. Korea causes our all electronic life style’s to cease this would be the vehicle to get you there. It needs a battery, alternator and possibly a starter. I am including some new parts with it such as a replacement drriver’s seat, a $300.00 wiring harness, Turn signals all 12Volt. Surprisingly little rust.”

Yeah, I suppose he’s right since most of the electronics are missing already but I may be wrong but as I recall an alternator has diodes and there is a positive and negative on the missing battery. And, and the gauges maybe, no I’m probably wrong. No I know I’m wrong. I don’t know I’m having a male PMS situation today, I’m not going to say anythang else.
Barry,
You are over thinking it. I’m thinking that if NK causes our electronic life to “cease” the last thing we’ll worry about it being able to take drives in our jeep!
I’m thinking a hot toddy (or cold beer) might help with your PMS …

You know what Dave I have to agree. Tuck and roll, and stick your head between your legs and kiss your arse goodbye. Or pour yourself a tall drink of apple shine, put your solar glasses on, kick back and watch the show! Thanks Dave for the slap to the back of my noggin. Whew.
Very interested in this cj2a. I live on Martha’s Vineyard island and have family in north east kingdom
Please contact me at your convenience.
