UPDATE:  **SOLD** Was $4600.

This sounds like a good jeeping drivetrain.

“1951 Willys CJ3a (Clear title).  225 v6 w/headers, T90 3-speed, dana/spicer 18 transfercase, dana 44 front disc brakes detroit locker w/4.88 gears, dana 44 rear detroit locker w/4.88 gears, spring over conversion w/shackle reversal, power steering, 33 inch pro-comp x-terrains on simulated beadlocks, winch, full size spare, less than 10,000 miles on drivetrain (rebuilt in early 80’s). New seats, tires, wheels, gas tank, fuel pump, battery, and high amp alternator. Too many toys, no reasonable offer refused.”

While updating the ebay results page, I ran across the following jeep.  It’s a CJ-2A made up to look like a MB/GPW.  On ebay, it sold for a winning bid of $10,600.  I’m a bit shocked it sold for that much.

“1948 WILLYS CJ2A JEEP, SN/CJ2A 181994, refurbished to look like a WWII MB military jeep (don’t get me wrong, it is NOT a WWII military jeep) only made to look like one. It would be great for parades or WWII re-enactments. It does have a working military style fender blackout light, military style grill blackout marker lights, MB style spare tire rack, WWII style fuel can with holder, bumperettes, MB style side and corner handles, WWII style tandem hand wipers, military style foot starter, new front OD canvas seats with WWII style seat back pockets, stars, USA lettering and 5 new 6 ply WWII style NDT tires (non-directional tread, pulls just as good in reverse as in forward)….”

UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $800.

Looks like a pretty good price for what’s there. Maybe it even runs?

“All original 49 willys jeep ready for restoration. No major rust mostly surface. Oringinal flat head 4.”

Doesn’t look too shabby.

“Real nice CJ2A with a Super Sonic 6cyl engine. This Jeep has new brake system, new radiator, rebuilt starter, heater and wipers work. It also has a recent tune-up and great top. It does need tires and seat cushions. I’d keep it, but I’m too large to get in and out of it comfortably. Will trade for Jeep Cherokee of equal value.

The body is beat up a bit.  It’s got a CJ-3A windshield.  Hard to tell much more.

“1947 Willys jeep with full winter enclosure and frame (picture without enclosure). Four cylinder, four wheel drive with lockout hubs. Needs starter drive. “

UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $5000.

“1947 CJ2A. 400chev V8,t-90 trans.twin stick transfer,4Wdisc brakes,dual tanks,Best Top with doors,new tires and wheels…runs excellent..body good,new drive lines and spring assemblys.consider part trade??? mostly cash.”

UPDATE: this nice flattie is still available.

The Chevy 181 appears to be a 3.0 Liter Marine engine, which is likely a nice 4cyl for the jeep.  This jeep is likely worth a closer look.

“1951 Willys Flatfender Jeep in great shape. Chevy 181 4 cylinder engine with a synchronized 3 speed transmission and split- stick transfer case.
