Based on the serial number, I’d say this is a 1950 Cj-3a, not a 1948 CJ-2A.

“Blue 1948 Jeep Willys CJ3A for sale!

2001 4.3 Chevy V6 with headers installed (electronics with motor, not hooked up).
SM420 transmission.
Transfer case adapter.
T18 transfer case.
Duel fuel tanks.
Duel rear mounted gas cans.
Body has very little rust.”

UPDATE: The consensus is that this is likely a 3A.

This has a governor cable.

Lacks the frame-to-bumper gussets, so it could be a very late 2A or a 3A.

“1949 Willys jeep in good shape runs and drives good. Seat dosent come with it. All tires hold air all original 3 speed with reverse high low tranfercase. Clean title. Would trade for a willys wagon”

Could be a good price. It runs, but no brakes.

“Selling my willys Jeep cj3a! Awesome little Jeep that is in pretty good shape!! Not nearly as rusty or beat up as most I looked at when
I was in the market! Almost all original. Running and driving. The original flat head 4cyl starts
Up and runs good, I haven’t even cleaned the original Carter carb! (Although I’m sure it could use a carb clean and a tune up after sitting for many years) the original gas tank is not rusted out like most. The engine does smoke a bit but is very strong, I think it could be old gas in tank or oil making it smoke. The transmission shifts great and stays in all the gears. Clutch works as it should. Jeep drives straight. Brakes do not work!
Really neat Jeep that would be fun to clean up, I just don’t have time with a few other Jeep projects going on.
No scams.
First come first serve”
