1946 CJ-2A Cottonwood, CA $5000

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

Given the shape, the grille-protector(?) looks like it could have been built for a Commando Jeepster.

https://redding.craigslist.org/cto/d/cottonwood-cj-2a-1946-jeep/7297794114.html

“This jeep has seen better years cosmetically and mechanically but still a sought after vehicle. Good steel, no rot we can see. Motor was rebuilt about 20 years ago give er take a few but there was def an issue still and it was parked for long term. Vehicle is located in Weaverville, California. I have no idea mileage or exactly what’s wrong with it owner passed many years ago and unfortunately the bulk information on it passed as well. Great deal for a restoration jeep.”

“I’m listing my 1952 Willys CJ3A Jeep MAINLY for trade/possible sale consideration. The price is basically a “ballpark value” measuring tool. I’m just listing for trade vehicles I may want more than my Jeep, NOT because I need to sell or don’t like my Jeep. It is getting harder to drive as I’m getting older and would like a toy (JEEP ) that’s easier to drive (automatic, power steering, etc.) which will make sense if you read my trade list below.

Photos From the Museum of American Armor

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

Nick visited the Museum of American Armor in Old Bethpage State Park, Long Island, New York, and took these photos for us.

Here’s a video from the Museum’s website:

Nick wrote, “Right when you walk in and scattered throughout with the heavy artillery are a number of well preserver/restored jeeps. The second vehicle you see when entering is a nice GPW. Then, there are blue and yellow newer-looking jeeps (looked like a 3a and an m38a1), which they drive and use around the park. The museum has a very nice OD m38a1 and an M-718 ambulance jeep. They also have an M-274 Mule, a Mighty mite, and an MB.

They have several volunteers that restore the vehicles and many are driven around. And, if you want to take a ride in a tank in an old battlefield setting, I believe you can for a reasonable donation (think it’s like $125).

Here’s a GPW:

2021-museum-of-american-armor-nick-6

This M-38A1 looks well restored:

2021-museum-of-american-armor-nick-7

This CJ-3A? may have an aftermarket hood. It looks like there’s possibly a “Follow Me” M-38A1 behind the blue jeep:

This appears to be an MB:

I stuffed a 1971 corvette 350 in it with aluminum radiator, electric fan, pertronix electronic ignition, Taylor spark plug wires, new water pump, thermostat, and a brand new starter. Has a Saganall steering box, new intake manifold and a edelbrock carb. She fires right up although she can be a little cold blooded but once it’s warmed up she doesn’t fail.

Tires are 31’s and still in good shape, it has new brake lines all the way around, new master cylinder and a new slave cylinder for the hydraulic clutch, has about 55-60 psi in oil pressure and runs about 180-185 degrees. Bikini top is fairly new, no rips or tears, seats are in great shape. I made custom seat mounts so you can move them forward/back and tilt.

Also has a 8000lb winch mounted up front with its own cut off switch. Looking to sell soon so I can move on to my other toys I rather play with. Has been out of the system for years. I can proved a bill of sale, I also have an appointment on Wednesday to do a vin verification with CHP to get it titled. $6500 obo”

The Jeepster at the I-95 Welcome Center

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

In 2018 when driving south from Philadelphia to Delaware, a reader recommended we stop at the northbound welcome center along I-95. Unfortunately, as we were driving south, we got a little confused, then we realized that to turn around was going to take more time than we’d allotted. So, we never got to see what was at the Welcome Center.

Yesterday, someone posted a picture of a Jeepster that sits inside the Welcome Center, so now we know what we missed! We’ll definitely stop on our next trip, should we head north on I-95.
