1948 Lefty CJ-2A Flagstaff, AZ **SOLD**

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

UPDATE: **SOLD** Was on eBay.

The body weaves and bobs a little bit and there’s plenty of minor welds on the inside of the fenders and hood, but otherwise this looks solid.  It’s missing the driver’s side spare tire holder.

“For sale is my unique “lefty” 1948 Willy’s CJ2A.  It has been a great CJ, but it is time for someone else to enjoy it and time for me to move onto another project.  Brief history of what I know for sure.  My Dad found it in a field in Wyoming and wanted to convert it to a hunting vehicle, but I talked him into restoring it. When he took possession, it was in pretty rough shape, so he did a frame off “garage” restoration in 1999-2000.  I would estimate it to be about an 80% restoration.  There are a few blemishes here and there, but overall the vehicle is in great shape.  I requested not to have a complete restoration because I wanted to use it for what it was meant to be used for, fun!  He re-welded the entire frame, rebuilt the original flat head engine, rebuilt the drivetrain, converted it over to a 12V electrical system, re-wired the entire vehicle, repainted it, reupholstered the two front seats, repositioned the spare tire carrier (added a rear tire/jerry can carrier- no jerry cans, sorry!), added a new Bestop Tiger Top with doors and just about everything else you would do in a restoration.  I took possession of it in 2000 and used it as a daily driver for about a year.  Since then I have only used it every now and again just for fun and to keep everything lubricated.  Have used it maybe a half dozen times in light off-roading situations in the past 5 years, other than that, just normal street driving.  Since I have owned it, it has always been garaged.  The new non-directionals tires are mounted on the original wheels.  The wheels have been powder coated and I put Firestone non-directionals on all four wheels and the spare about a year ago….”

Wonderful World of Willys Wagons

• CATEGORIES: Features, Website, Willys Wagons This site contains affiliate links for which I may be compensated.

I was doing a search for Wagon axles when I found this Wagon-based website:  Wonderful World of Willys Wagons.  It’s got some interesting, funny, silly stuff, including a description of a sprung front wagon clip.  There’s a section of trains and jeeps titled Geeps & Jeeps.  This site could easily  be called the goofy world of wagons.

Reader Question …

• CATEGORIES: News This site contains affiliate links for which I may be compensated.

A reader asked me the following “would the diffs from a 50’s willys truck bolt up to a jeep frame without modification?”  I didn’t know the answer off hand.  Anyone know?

Assume we are moving 50’s truck running gear to a pre 1970 cj-5, cj-3a, cj-3b, cj-2a …

Thanks,

– Dave

1951 CJ-3A West Alton, Mo eBay

• CATEGORIES: CJ-3A • TAGS: This site contains affiliate links for which I may be compensated.

This Jeep has some personality. It’s a bit beat up, but I like it.

“This is and old Jeep that has been in the family for about 30 years and has just been used on private property to stay out of the weather when hunting which is great and push snow. The engine is the 4cyl. Hurricane with 3 speed manual trans. It starts and runs but has been sitting for some time and will need a tune up and the pinion seals show some leaking. The electrical system is the original 6 volt but starter has been rewound for 12 volt. Generator does not work but alternator does. Snow plow is homemade but does the job. The odometer shows 63827 but stopped working long ago. A water line can be seen but that was years ago and is dry at this time. With this said it would be necessary to trailer home and do some TLC before being roadworthy. I have a clear Missouri title in my name that will be reassigned over to you with a bill of sale. You can email me at floods@earthlink.net Thank you Duane.”

Paul Readies His Radiator

• CATEGORIES: Builds, Features • TAGS: This site contains affiliate links for which I may be compensated.

Paul made good progress recently with the radiator installation.  I’ll let him explain …

Paul writes, “During the past few days I’ve been busy scrounging metal, making parts and playing with the welder but the end result is the Willys has an M 151 radiator installed along with a V type firewall to radiator brace and a hood hold open rod.  I also picked up my new radiator from the local military surplus yard in addition to a used shroud and the necessary lower mounts.  The new radiator will reside safely in the house until it’s time to be installed after I quit taking things apart for modifications and redesigns but the size of this radiator is just about perfect for the room available under the hood.  I’ll have to spend some time at the local autoparts store mixing and matching coolant hoses before the engine is plumbed to the radiator and I also have to go shopping for a low profile electric fan (a puller is what I’m hunting for) but both of these tasks can be solved with reasonable amounts of money so I’m feeling pretty good with my progress so far. ”

1963 Wagon Paducah, Ky **SOLD**

• CATEGORIES: Willys Wagons • TAGS: This site contains affiliate links for which I may be compensated.

UPDATE: Status Unknown. Was $1800.

“I have a 63 Willys Wagon. It has the flathead 6cyl, 3spd trans, and all stock running gear. I was told it had been used in the Army but I have no proof of that. It does have a military data plate on the dash so it was used by some branch of the military early in its life. It was originally highway department yellow. My guess would be that it served on an air field or maintenance department for the Army or Air Corps. It runs and drives great and has a pretty decent body compaired to most of the other wagons I’ve seen. It has stock wheels and fairly new tires. It has the factory wooden slats still in the bed. THE BAD It does not have any brakes, and it has no title but I will provide you with a bill of sale. It was owned by a hunting club in AR and they never titled it. It is possible to obtain a title. Jeep is located in Paducah, KY and I’ll take $1,800 cash for it.”
