UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $900.
Nick’s got this project for sale.
“For sale is a 1946 Willys CJ2A project with a title. I have begun to get the Jeep running again but don’t have any more time. Was told by the last owner it was driven 5 years ago. This would be a great off-road toy or farm rig.
Engine is stuck. I pulled the head off, and checked the head to ensure it’s within head gasket tolerances. Engine was soaked in ATF for a couple weeks. I rewired and used the starter to bump the engine over a few times, and the pistons moved about an inch. It still needs worked. Good news is the engine isn’t completely seized in place.
Piston condition looks decent overall. 3 pistons look great and 1 has some pitting on the top. From its current rotation, the cylinder walls are all clean.
Frame is in good shape except for the driver rear which is shown in the pictures. The rest is solid with no rust-through spots. Front frame horns are straight. Body is rough as seen in the pictures. 2 tires hold air, 2 tires leak. Slight dry rotting but have almost new tread which are fine for off-road use.
Clutch pedal shaft was stuck but a prybar on the throwout bearing will move the clutch free. I worked the pedal shaft a bit.
You may come view this in a heated shop, and we have equipment to push right up your trailer. Feel free to call/text anytime of day.”
PROJECT is the KEY WORD here…
Give ya something to do this winter!
