This is a 1948 Willy's Jeep CJ2a made by Kaiser Steel in California. These were made by 3 companies during World War II. Kaiser made by far the most of them. They were made to be sturdy and take an extreme pounding. The simplicity of their systems made them really easy to repair and keep on the road. They are great for a fun family off road vehicle. Or for use in parades or other promotional events. They aren't meant for modern highways as their top speed is around 55 mph. However these vehicles will almost climb telephone poles. There are not many places an old CJ won't take you in the backcountry. This has the original L134 4 Cylinder Flathead Engine it originally came with. Not sure about the running condition of the motor. It is numbers matching and all there. It sat in a garage for at least 12 years. According to the original owners when they parked it in the garage it was in running condition. We acquired this thinking of restoring it but then we got another project that needs to take precedence. The only thing not original is its been upgraded to an alternator. This gives it much better and reliable charging than the original 6 volt system. This is an Az truck and shown no sign of outwards rust. Feel free to bid on this great Jeep with confidence. Being sold as is no warranties or guarantees of any kind.

“This is a 1948 Willy's Jeep CJ2a. It has the original numbers matching L134 flathead 4 cylinder engine in it that originally came with the car. The transmission. rear end and front differential are all made by Dana as they should be. It's basically all original except the electrical has been changed over to a 12 volt alternator system. This is a huge upgrade as the old 6 volt generators weren't able to keep them charged sufficiently. It has all 4 seats which are in good shape (they aren't Jeep tires). It has a bikini top although We've not tried it on. The glass is in perfect shape. Not sure if the windshield wipers work or not but they are there. Lights work. It has the original 3 stick shifting configuration. The windshield folds flat down on the hood. It has a spare and rim. Have not tried to start it as it sat for at least 12 years in a garage. Has new battery. It's in Az. and shows no sign of body rust. Would be a great project for a father and son. Don't miss out!” |
