Mike shared this pic off of Facebook. It looks to be a GPW. The message indicates this is #93389, but there were 277,000 built? Can some interpret this one for me please?

UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $1000.
Bill spotted this one. Note the unusual fork lift setup on the rear. I don’t know if this was a one-off creation or a purchasable piece of equipment. Looks to be hydraulically operated.
“Classic but very tired post war jeep. All complete, this jeep lived most of it’s life (so far) on an Avacado Orchard in San Diego area. Hence the pack fork (short lift forklift) on the back. It was used to move boxes of Avo’s around the orchard and general farming duties. That area is hilly so it comes with some dents.
The motor was near dead, I drove the jeep a little, pulled the motor and found it was already punched to 80 over so needs sleeves or replacement.
Comes with pink slip (what are the chances of that) and all the jeep stuff I have which isn’t much beyond pictured.Sc
Scammers, save your effort, cash is king. Will trade for vintage (euro) motorcycles/scooters”

Looks nice.
“you are looking at a 1956 Willys wagon that was with the same family since new, they lived in California and would drive the wagon to Yosemite national park back in the day. When the father passed away it was put in storage until 2007 when randy the son started the restoration, it was brought to Texas two years ago. The goal was to make it look good and run down the road with no problems. It was repainted with all the glass removed, new bearings and brakes, converted to 12 volt from 6, electric windshield wipers added along with a new heater system. I have a 2 page list, it tells the story on what was done. The factory gauges all work, and the mileage is believed to be actual. the drives window is cracked, it has some oil leaks, the original am radio is in a box in the back”

1945 VEC CJ-2A Winona, MN **SOLD**
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $3650.
(06/13/2017) Here’s an early jeep. It’s been converted to a floor shift, but the original steering column appears to be there.
“If you’re looking for a true American icon that is in very restorable condition this could be for you. The Willys CJ2A “Jeep” was the first jeep made available to the public in numbers after it became the vehicle so widely loved by the allies during WWII. The 1945 model is the first born of the civilian jeep family and began the civilian lineage for ALL the jeeps that followed. There were 1824 units produced for the 1945 model year. It appears as though there are 40+ units registered in the “CJ2A Page” webpage forum so it is a very rare beast. This one was originally pasture green. The body tub and tailgate ACM #’s are 2122.
The body and frame tags are in the correct positions so I assume them to be correct. The engine S/N is 11725-B. It runs well. Compression runs from a high of 88 psi on #3 to 70 psi on #2. Oil pressure is 20 psi at idle to 40+. The original column shift linkage is gone but the transmission still retains the side shift attachment points. I do have the correct, restorable transmission, column and transfer case with E-brake to return this Jeep to the original column shift/drivetrain configuration. The clutch works well and it shifts nicely. The original transfer case was replaced by a later, larger diameter idler shaft style, which functions well. The rear axle appears to be date coded 9 18 45. I could not determine the date code on the front but it is the earlier style with bolt on control arms.

1964 Wagon Statesville, NC $7500

UPDATE: Price dropped to $7500.
(01/05/2017) I’m told this color isn’t all that popular on the east coast?
“Are you ready to get some attention??? If so, we have exactly what you need. 1964 Willy Wagon, in a beautiful lime green. Under the hood, is a 1968 Camaro 350, with a rebuilt T90 transmission, an Edelbrock intake, and 4 barrel carb, M/T valve covers, and new wiring. We cut out rust, did bodywork, and had it freshly painted. Also, sanded and painted the wheels. Interior has been completely redone with new upholstery, carpet, wood floor, radio, speakers, dash, and more! Also built a storage bench in back, that also doubles as seating. All gauges work as they should.We built this for a beach wagon, and decided do go another route. If you are looking for a Willys this is it. Needs a few things to be complete, but all the main upgrades and maintenance has been done. Will need a new rear end, heater, and brakes. Also needs some work to get wipers going. If you are looking for a Willys that is ready to drive, this is it. All it needs is a little more time that we don’t have. Much more invested than asking price. Serious inquiries only.”

Plow jeep.
“This is a 1962 cj2a jeep. I have owned this since 1984 and used it plowing my driveway. I do not have a title for this vehicle. It’not something I would ever think of putting on the road. Even if it was in great condition the top speed is probably 40 or so, just geared very low and not something for the highway.. It is a 4 cylinder that currently runs and drives. It could probably use a carb kit and tune up. The body is rough and the clutch could use some adjusting, but it does shift thru the gears. The brakes do work as I rebuilt the master cylinder about 6 months ago.
It has been kept in my barn when not using it, but still in rough condition…
One thing to consider is that if you buy this you will need a rollback or a tow bar to take it home.
This is being sold as is with no warranty. No paypal or checks….Cash Only…$750.00…Reasonable offers will be considered..
Not accepting emails or texts, phone only….If not available please leave a message, I will call you back…”
