Normal 0 false false false EN-US X-NONE X-NONE UP FOR AUCTION IS MY 1946 WILLY'S JEEP, SERIAL #21813, MODEL CJ2A. THIS YEAR RETAINS THE MILITARY STYLE WITH TOOL INDENTS IN THE BODY. THIS JEEP IS READY TO BE DRIVEN AND ENJOYED AND RUNS GREAT. THE PREVIOUS OWNER SAID THEY HAD REBUILT THE ENGINE WHEN THEY FIRST GOT IT. IT RUNS WITH 40-50 LBS OF OIL PRESSURE AT 160 DEGREES WITH AN IDLE OF 20 LBS PRESSURE AT RUNNING TEMPERATURE. IT DOESN’T SMOKE, SHIFTS GREAT, THE FOUR WHEEL DRIVE HIGH AND LOW WORKS FINE AND THE BRAKES HAVE BEEN COMPLETELY REDONE. I REPLACED ALL THE WHEEL CYLINDERS, MASTER CYLINDER, BRAKE SHOES, BOTH STEEL AND RUBBER LINES, CONNECTORS, FITTINGS ETC.. THE ADDED LOCK OUT HUBS WERE ALSO COMPLETELY REBUILT, WORK GREAT AND IT HAS NEW SHOCKS. IT ALSO HAS A NEW CLUTCH KIT, PILOT BUSING AND SEAL AND GASKET KIT INSTALLED. IT’S BEEN CONVERTED TO 12 VOLTS WITH AN ALTERNATOR. IT HAS THE ORIGINAL OIL BATH AIR CLEANER AND ORIGINAL SPLIT WINDSHIELD (ONE SIDE HAS PLASTIC INSTEAD OF GLASS AND SHOULD BE REPLACED). THE DATA PLATES ARE ALSO ORIGINAL. THE STEERING HAS ABOUT 25% PLAY, IS OK BUT PROBABLY A STEERING BOX REBUILD SHOULD BE DONE FAIRLY SOON. ALL THE GAUGES AS WELL AS THE HEADLIGHTS, RUNNING LIGHTS AND BRAKE LIGHTS WORK EXCEPT THE SPEEDOMETER WHICH READS 33136 MILES, BUT THE TRUE MILEAGE IS UNKNOWN. THE SEAT FRAMES LOOK ORIGINAL AND ARE SOLID. THE GAS TANK APPEARS TO HAVE BEEN REPLACED WITH AN ORIGINAL STYLE OR NOS TANK. THE FRAME IS VERY SOLID, THE HAT CHANNELS IN SOME PLACES HAVE SOME RUST BUT ARE OK, AND THE TIRES ARE FAIR (WEATHER CHECKED AND MAYBE 40% TREAD). THE BODY IS PRETTY ROUGH. THERE’S VARIOUS RUST SPOTS AND MANY DRILLED HOLES FOR VARIOUS TOPS AND ATTACHMENTS I’D GUESS (I’VE TAKEN LOTS OF PICTURES SO EVERYTHING CAN BE SEEN). IT’S BEEN PATCHED ON THE FLOOR AND HAS SOME WELDED AREAS, BUMPS AND BRUISES. IT’S GREAT AS IS FOR HUNTING OR AS A BACK WOODS VEHICLE, FARM JEEP OR JUST TO RUN AROUND IN. I’VE HAD IT FOR A FEW YEARS AND IT’S ALWAYS BEEN GARAGE KEPT. IF YOU WANT A PRINCESS, IT’LL NEED SOME WORK BUT COULD EASILY BE DONE BY ANY BODY SHOP. THE JEEP CAN BE INSPECTED AND TEST DRIVEN IN HART, MICHIGAN. AFTER PAYMENT RECEIVED, I’LL STORE IT INSIDE FOR UP TO A MONTH UNTIL PICK-UP CAN BE ARRANGED. THE JEEP IS FOR SALE LOCALLY AND I RESERVE THE RIGHT TO END THE AUCTION EARLY. PLEASE EMAIL WITH ANY QUESTIONS AND THANKS FOR LOOKING.
