Bernd’s Bad Day at the Gas Pump

September 1, 2019 • CATEGORIES: Features This site contains affiliate links for which I may be compensated.

Some days you wish you could do over. Bernd had one of those days recently. His goal was to transport a ride-on lawyer mower to the Austrian workshop to repair an oil leak. After loading the lawnmower, he discovered his CJ-5 needed gas, so he drove to the local gas station and put in about a half tank, then proceeded on his way.

Soon, his jeep wasn’t quite running correctly. Remembering he still had his receipt from the gas station, he pulled it out only to discover that he filled up with diesel instead of standard gas.

So, Bernd sent the CJ-5 to a ‘spa’ for some cleaning and reinvigorating. We hope it recovers soon!

1952 M-38 Colorado Springs, CO $33,900

September 1, 2019 • CATEGORIES: M-38 This site contains affiliate links for which I may be compensated.

Obviously the price is high for the market, but apart from that, there’s some nice work on this build. Looks like it has both a standard fan and an electric fan. Probably a great road and trail jeep given the 4.10s and the T-18 low range.

“Willys M-38 Jeep . 350 Corvette engine, T-18 4 speed trans w/6.39 1st gear. 2 1/2″ Rancho Lift, 33×12 General M/T, full roll cage, racing seats with 5 point harness, 8 thousand pound Warn winch, electric engine fan, Currie 9” Ford axles with Detroit Locker in the rear and a Track Lock in the front, 4.10’s, battery disconnect, front disc brakes, and a whole bunch more.

1946 CJ-2A Wilton, CA $5000

September 1, 2019 • CATEGORIES: CJ-2A This site contains affiliate links for which I may be compensated.

Runs and drives. Looks like it might have had bow holders that were removed, but can’t tell for sure.

https://www.facebook.com/marketplace/item/2431754423759644/

“This is an unrestored all orginal 1946 cj2a. It was found under the bed of a Chevy truck a few years back. It does run and drive but a few things would need to be updated if you want to use it for more than parades or a car show. I’ve been on the fence about parting with it just because I won’t ever find one like this again.”

Year? MB Irvine, CA SOLD

September 1, 2019 • CATEGORIES: MB • TAGS: Hardtop, Odd Body. This site contains affiliate links for which I may be compensated.

UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $2750. Now listed here.

This highly modified MB has been floating around Facebook a few days. Listed as a 1941, it appears to be an MB of some vintage. Someone invested quite a bit of time with the mods, especially the door and top system. The fenders and bumper look to me like parts form a Philippine Jeepney.

“You are bidding on a vintage NEWGREN (LOVE) under body rear hitch for Willys Jeep CJ Models. It was removed from a 1946 cj2a with column shift, so I know it is an early version of this lift. A little rusty and crusty, but still there for restoration or duplication. These are very rare to find so this may be once in a lifetime find for the avid collector. Listing is for local pickup, but I will aid in shipping and banding to pallet if you are handling a truck freight option. Feel free to email any questions.

“Hello, I am selling a hard to find 1953 Willy’s 3b for my grandpa. He has had the vehicle since the 70s and has been a great vehicle for him. He started to rebuild the vehicle a few years ago but then had some health complications. It has all the parts for the vehicle. He has some new parts like a new gas tank, and a Buick 238 V6 that was rebuilt 3 years ago. It has lived it’s whole life in the desert so it has minimal rust compared to more humid environments’
