It doesn’t run. That bumper must have hit something hard to be that dented!

(05/18/2019) Ran when parked … Looks to have Cutlas power lock hubs. I believe that’s a Kelly hardtop.
“Ran when parked rebuilt engine original unsure of actual miles on it. 2800 with plow 2500 without. Yes it has a clear title and is classic plated.”
Carlos Torres opened a mobile coffee stand in London using a CJ-3B that he rebuilt into a mobile coffee stand like those he’d seen in his native Colombia. He also offers tailor-made “Colombian Experience” packages where he’ll provide the mobile coffee jeep plus salsa dancers, live music, and more. If you are in London, make sure to hunt down his jeep and get a proper cup of Colombian coffee! You can learn more at these links:
Ann’s cousin’s name is Shelby, named for Carroll Shelby. Apparently, they are distant cousins. Yesterday, Shelby (the cousin) made a reference to a new movie trailer, Ford Vs. Ferrari, on Facebook. So, I checked out the trailer ….
I was never a big car guy and never knew much about Shelby (neither the cars nor the designer), but after watching the trailer, I thought the movie could be a good one.
At the trailer’s end, youtube automatically flipped to another video. It just happened to be a video of Carroll Shelby in his own words. It it he very succinctly explains his life, including the period captured by the movie when he was asked to build turn a “mom’s car” into a sports car. It’s twenty-two minutes, but worth a view in my opinion.
Ted shared a couple pics of his CJ-2A with a boom/rear winch assembly.
“Did a major yard cleanup — scrap iron haul after a dreary wet flooded basement winter here. The freezer is a 1948 IH that I hauled out of my basement with the boom and rear winch setup. Worked well except the damn freezer weighed a lot and had the front of the Jeep teetering a bit once out in yard on uneven ground. Gonna have to put a little counter weight out front next time!! Works great and is a big help around the yard picking stuff up pulling motors, and body’s etc. That 46 is my wheeler/yard Jeep with four speed, original flat head, overdrive, rear pto winch and old school warn front winch. Crawl ratio with the 5:38s and four speed is about 95 to one; Painfully slow on road but off road it’s unstoppable.”
Looks in good shape. There appear to be some floor patches.

“1952 Willys Jeep with extra parts. Drive it home!
The good:
-Drives great. So great that I used it for a daily driver.
-Engine was rebuilt 10,000 miles ago by a professional shop. Have records to show.
– carburetor freshly rebuilt
– New tie rods and ends
-New points and condenser
-New wires and plugs as of last fall.
-New Battery this spring.
-New Fuel Pump
-Tires have less than 2000 miles on them.
-Has overdrive (4th gear for highway)
– Comes with three soft tops.
– Includes a ton of extra parts from a donor jeep, and a couple new parts that I have not yet gotten around to install.
-New and vintage parts are super easy to come by if you ever need them. cheap too!
The bad:
-Needs new rear brake shoes/ drums installed. (Parts included)
– Has rust
-Engine runs too rich but it’s not the carburetor. Thinking it has to be either the distributor, or the valves need adjustment.
I can send you my phone number if you email me. But due to spammers I no longer post it openly on CL.
Thank you!!!”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $1500.
This looks like it could be a Traveller to me. It’s listed as a 1968. There’s no title.
“Interior in good condition, original seats, without title, has V8”
Has a few bubbifications.

“1946 CJ2 Willy’s 4×4 rebuilt whole drivetrain-2 sets rims-tow bar-tires good-runs drives good-Best Top $5000 firm”
This looks like one of the Acme or Brian Chuchua tubs. It’s a light tub, but surprisingly sturdy.
https://easttexas.craigslist.org/pts/d/mineola-cj2a-jeep-willys-fiberglass/6902004779.html
“I bought this tub and no longer have the Jeep it was going on. It is brand new with no holes. It’s for a Willy’s CJ2A but you could use it on other models. Comes with a new fiberglass hood. Absolutely NO TRADES. Serious CASH offered considered but if you know anything about these you know a new one is at least $2,000.”
Seems like a good price.

The Great Willys Picnic is this Sunday. It’s another event I’ve always wanted to attend, but never seem to be in the vicinity to do that! It’s supposed to be 77 degrees with a low chance of rain. Sounds like perfect weather!

I’m way behind on my document scans. I thought I’d catch up today, but between our search for a new bed (Ann’s back is giving her issues) and the fact that Ann accidentally left the plastic bbq brush (why???) in the bbq, which melted into an ugly mess when I turned on the bbq, forcing me to clean the whole thing, all meant that I didn’t have time once again for scans.
Anyhow, here’s the promised Dualmatic brochure. The brochure is directly and has some stains, so they aren’t the best scans. But, they’ll do for now.
Lots of custom work. I bet this was a California jeep at some point. There are few Cali jeeps that had been modified with that type of windshield.

Would consider trades for Polaris 1000 turbo or Can am Maverick or X3.”
Could be a good price.
