UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $5000.

Appears to have a replacement body, but is missing the steps.

“1946 Willys Jeep. Clean body, no rust or dents. Engine is strong (not original) but does need some seals replaced. This jeep will need some work. Two new seats included in the purchase.”

UPDATE: Price dropped to $8000.

(11/24/2017) Appears solid.

Not sure how much value there is here.

This may be worth a look.

“The Jeep is a CJ2A. It also runs.”

The dash looks a little chaotic with that extra section mounted the rear of the windshield.

Nick’s got his modified CJ-2A for sale. He said he’ll take more photos this weekend. He’s included a long spec list as well.

“This was my winter project last year. I purchased this Willys locally (Lancaster) in August 2016. It now has many, Many, Many new high quality parts. It actually has $4,171 worth of new parts installed (see below). I also have all of the receipts for the parts on hand.

I have only driven Jeep maybe 60 miles in the year since purchasing as I just finished all of the work to the Jeep in July.

All work done was done properly and without cutting corners. I had planned to keep this Jeep, but my wife and I are divorcing and she wants to sell this vehicle. This jeep is very nice, runs and drives great, and is very powerful. We are not in a hurry to sell this Jeep and are in no way interested in a trade, so please do not ask. We also do not require any help selling this Jeep.

I have uploaded a few pictures that I have here on my phone and will take better pictures this week. The pictures I just posted show the Jeep while in progress. Everything is done now.

Needs work. Engine runs.

“I had great plans to take a complete 1947 CJ2A w/Great Engine (I have video of the engine running), but it’s been for sale for about a year now and I would like to move it on. I should mention that it has the 1947 model year McCord heater, for the passenger compartment. It’s an option and I’m guessing that’s rare and would be somewhat collectible.

Price wise, my understanding is that the running engine alone should be worth about $1K. So to help move things along and make it easy, my thought is to sell the whole jeep for $1,000 – you get the good engine and all the rest of the original 1947 parts – no problem! I’m also open to offers, so if $1K is too much, what works for you? Another way to shave down the price a bit is for me to keep to few of the pieces (like the grill and windshield) and you can have the rest at a reduced cost.

All of these parts are located in Winona, MN and are available for you to stop by and see about anytime.

This price assumes that you will pick up and haul the jeep from Winona – delivery may be possible for an extra fee, just ask and we’ll see what can be worked out.

So, this would be a great winter project – maybe a family project or just something fun!”

Not sure what value is here.

“Three Willy Jeeps for parts. Years are 1941, 1947, and a 1949. All three of the Jeeps are CJ2A.”

https://up.craigslist.org/cto/d/willy-jeeps/6415569211.html

UPDATE: Still Available.

(11/14/2017) Appears worth a look.

“1948 CJ2 Willys Jeep, Good Condition, No Bondo, great car, needs some work. Very Good NDT Tires, newer radiator and fuel tank. Starts and runs but needs some work. Brakes need to be bled. Converted to 12V. Asking $6500.00-Negotiable.”

UPDATE: Price dropped to $18,500.

(10/05/2017) A “rehab” is a fair way to describe this.

“This Willys Jeep CJ2A has had an off-chassis rehab. It has a green exterior with gray interior. It is powered by a 4-cylinder Hurricane engine with manual transmission. This Jeep is 70 years old and was built after WWII. Titled as 1946 Jeep.”

https://newlondon.craigslist.org/cto/d/1946-willys/6403884363.html

That looks like some big rope on the front!

“1947 CJ2A Willy Jeep. All mechanically redone, all wiring, new starter, generator, radiator, belts, brakes, battery, bulbs, gas tank, ext. Body is in good shape.
Runs great and is a lot of fun. Send your offer.”

https://jerseyshore.craigslist.org/cto/d/jeep/6397798899.html

Looks promising.

“I have a 1948 willys cj2a for sale. This jeep has a pretty clean body and NO rust. We originally bought it with the intention to do a v6 swap and change the suspension. We completed two other projects and we’re running out of space. It does not have a motor but it does have the transmission and transfercase along with several other parts.”

https://sfbay.craigslist.org/eby/cto/d/willys-cj2a/6413590939.html

Looks like there could be value.

“Nice willys jeep good Engine 500 obo”

UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $2000.

This runs and is has a complete rear PTO setup plus shield. The body needs work.

“I have a rare little jeep.. It is completely original down to every nut and bolt. The ONLY downside to this jeep is rust in the body. I have yard driven this jeep over the summer. It need brakes and lines hooked up. I have a NEW complete set of brakes lines that will go with it and a NEW master cylinder. This jeep has a new gas tank and fuel line. I have not started the jeep in 2 months but the engine is in great shape and does not smoke or make noise or leak oil on my drive way. This jeep is $2000 firm and is worth every penny in parts from seat frames, pto, engine, gas tank, and tons of other parts. pto and engine alone are almost worth my asking price.”

It’s a project. Engine’s out.

“cj2a jeep for sale- fair condition needs work. not running but have extra engine. newer wheels and tires. cj2a body. have title and title in storage so no back taxes.”

This is a diesel project.

https://nwct.craigslist.org/cto/d/1947-cj2a-mercedes-turbo/6400700356.html

“Hate to sell this thing but things have came up and I don’t have the time to finish it right now. It’s a 1947 willys cj2a with a Mercedes turbo diesel, it is the 3.0 liter 5 cylinder model from a 1985 300d, I have a video of the previous owner of the Mercedes starting it. It has the automatic from the Mercedes still on it which has gotten adapted to the willys transfer case. The jeep is axle dropped so it’s lifted about 8 inches. I have the Mercedes which I will sell with it if you want it for parts and scrap money.

UPDATE: Listed as a ’47, the serial number suggests it was manufactured in ’46.

Could be worth a look. Might have some Allstate or similar hubs. Might have some bondo on the driver’s side.

“Willys Overland CJ-2A, 1947, serial # 66215, FL title. Civilian willy jeep.Runs good. Drivable. Fold down split windshield. Tailgate.”

UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $9500

(11/19/2017) The body has had some repairs.

“Listed for your viewing pleasure today is my very clean 1946 Willys CJ2A Jeep. This little beauty is truly something special. Column shift “3 on the tree” in the original color combo for the period. This Jeep spent the better part of 16 years after being completed stored in a dusty but climate controlled garage and after a long stretch and some tinkering she is ready for some action!

The whole Jeep was gone through in the late 90s after being acquired by the previous owner by the original owner family who had it new for farm use and then the grandson in the late 60s to early 70s had it as an advertising piece for his auto parts store in central DE. Mileage was said to be original. Flat Head 4. The jeep has practically new tires, a brand new battery, coil, cap, rotor, plugs and plug wires and floor ignition switch. The fuel tank, wiring harness, fuel lines, brake lines and so on were all replaced previously as well. The frame and body are both in great shape.

Very solid Jeep here as shown in the photos. Some things were changed such as the spare tire and wheel location, a roll cage was added for safety and seat belts were added as well. All are easily removed if you prefer to be more period correct. Vacuum operated  drivers side wiper even works! Newer Bestop soft top in great condition as well as the full soft doors seen in the photos. Tiny crack in the drivers side windshield glass. Paint shows very well. Has some tiny blemishes up close but these things were not painted even when they were new to be show stoppers.

I would say this Jeep is a very solid driver quality piece that is sure to grab just about anyone’s attention. I have all new brakes for the front and rear that will go with the Jeep as well as various manuals, a cover, spare oil filter and other small bits and pieces acquired over time. Starts, runs, rides, stops, idles and cools great.

I see a tiny drop of oil on the floor every now and then from the oil pan, never cared to fool with it. No issues there. Has not seen much action lately other than in and out of the garage and fair weather spins around the neighborhood with my son and wife. Be prepared for questions, this thing gets attention. If I have it at the bottom of the driveway while cleaning out the garage the lookie loo’s all come around!

More information to come! I also have a video of it running that I will post shortly as well. As you can see I have too much laying around and I am trying to reduce the toys laying around. I have a hellcat in the garage that’s buried at this point from the clutter. No the Tri-Z is not for sale. Neither is the Lifted Platinum Superduty 🙂 “
