1948 CJ-2A Dover, NC $9500

• CATEGORIES: CJ-2A This site contains affiliate links for which I may be compensated.

Don’s selling this CJ-2A, one he believes to be a former Shell station jeep (the tailgate suggests it may have been a service station unit). The blue on the tailgate matches the blue on other parts of the jeep, so it appears to be original to it.

“1948 Willys CJ2A Jeep Ex Service Station Jeep. Original body with a few small rust areas. A previous owned sprayed can painted the Jeep in a camo pattern and we decided to remove the camo paint back down to the original Normandy Blue paint. The grill is back to its original color along with most of the dash and tailgate. On the tailgate we discovered the wording “SHELL ROAD SERVICE” so this Jeep at one time was used at a Shell service station. It also has one of the 250lb front weights, four axle bumper spacers, and it looks like some type of lift was attached to the bed at one time.

New and Rebuilt Parts include: Wiring harness, battery cables, coil, points, condenser, distributor cap and rotor, plug wires, plugs, rebuilt generator, fuel sending unit, coil, keyed switch. Brake master cylinder, wheel cylinders, brake shoes, lines, Dot5 silicone brake fluid. Bearing and shaft for the bell-crank, tie rod ends, wheel bearing seals, wheel bearings serviced, drag link rebuilt.”

1946 Willys CJ-2A (My eWillys Rig)

• CATEGORIES: CJ-2A • TAGS: , This site contains affiliate links for which I may be compensated.

Pete sent in his 1946 CJ-2A, it’s really nice looking. Has had it 30 years. Mike’s not going to like there is no big back story here, but I think the rig speaks for itself it looks well done and a fun ride. I’m going to guess not an L134.

Thanks, Pete for sending this in!

If you would like to share your rig with us please follow this link and consider sharing a small story and a few memories or pictures, could be an older Willys from your past as well:

My eWillys Rig

Pete if you have some additional original pictures build pictures or information happy to update the post. I was lucky to have gotten a photo album with my Red Wagon filled with shots of the build, and what a transformation that rig has gone through in his 30+ years of ownership.

I liked this one, had not run across this one before.

Not to say it’s not already posted here on eWillys there is alot of content here! But either way from time to time what’s old is new again, at some point the plan will probably included to go over the archives and pull up some of the older stuff. It’s probably new to alot of us.
