“Excellent running 1946 CJ2A. Very original, drives right down the road with no squeaks or rattles. Lock out hubs and 4WD works just fine. Headlights, tail-lights, turn signal and interior lights, horn (vintage) all work as designed.
I bought this a few months back, and since then have done the following: new tires, new fuel pump and regulator, new Solex carburetor, new shocks, new exhaust system front to back, new instruments, new transmission cross member and motor mounts. I changed the intake/exhaust manifold gasket, set the valves, changed the plugs and wires, and timed the motor. Engine, transmission, overdrive, transfer case and differential oils all changed.
The L134 flathead makes good power, does not smoke, has good oil pressure and runs cool. There’s an enormous winch mounted on the front, which I have been told is WWII vintage for moving aircraft on the runway.
Body has the usual dings and rust typical of a 70 year old Willys.
I am selling to get a more highway friendly Jeep, although one can drive this 60 MPH if they wish.
Email me your phone number and I will call you. Reasonable offers are welcome. ”
For the buyer looking for an early flat fender where originality is not paramount this seems to be a decent deal, especialy with the overdrive.
You’re right, Peter, there’s been a lot of little things done to this Jeep to take away originality. Where’s the rest of the air filter? They probably ran out of clearance. Not good for the motor
You don’t need the rest of the air filter. This fella uses the hood when closed to seal it off! Lol! Good thing the engine doesn’t “torque” or the hood doesn’t flex…NOT! Plenty going on here with this little jeep. At least those big ol bucket seats are just sitting on top of the original frames…
Looks like this one has the MB/GPW windscreen… wonder if they’d like to trade me for a CJ2A windshield frame? It’s only an hour and a half drive.
