This is being re-listed due to non-payment, the high bidder is a nice fellow, but should have had his money arranged before bidding, so please don't bid unless you can pay. I have never put restrictions on bidders and don't want to start now. To give you an idea on shipping cost, we had a shipping quote of $700 to Los Angeles. I am lowering the reserve to help make someone a nice Christmas present, good luck and Merry Christmas. 1947 WILLYS CJ2A, VIN 98722, dressed up as a WWII Willys MB jeep, (IT IS NOT A WWII JEEP), the previous owner started the rebuild, he repaired the body, gas tank, put new seals and bearings as needed in front axle, transmission/transfercase, new shocks...we finished the rebuild with...complete professional rebuild of engine, (machine shop charges were $1747) and that did not include any labor, (see photo), Rick has been a personal friend almost 40 years and does these jeep engines as a favor, as he usually builds high horsepower race engines, original Willys air breather, new clutch, went through rear axle with new wheel cylinders, seals, brake shoes, new steel lines, new rubber lines, new master cylinder, steering bell crank bearing kit, new 12 volt alternator, new battery, new wiring with soldered connections, new WWII olive drab paint, military canvas seat cushions, new WWII oil can/bracket under hood, new WWII MB exhaust system, new temperature gauge, all lights work, including headlights (new switch), bright/dim, parking marker lights, bright light indicator, dash light, tail/stop light, backup light, WWII fender blackout drive light/bracket (has a NOS 1942 6 volt bulb) with volt reducer, horn, siren on fender works (use only in parades), WWII dual hand wipers, hood strap to hold windshield down while driving, has WWII style windshield hold down latches on hood (for looks only). 4 new 6:00 X 16 inch NDT military style tires on original CJ wheels, spare is an original NDT tire (is weather cracked, but has new tube), military gas can/holder and strap, pintle hood, Willys MB bumperettes, heavy duty M38 front bumper with lift brackets, new WWII steering wheel, M38 tailgate is bolted closed for the WWII look. Clear, current Oklahoma title, numbers match original frame tag, with black tag (means no liability insurance), not street legal in Oklahoma without liability insurance, the jeep has all legal items at time of manufacture, check your local DMV. Starts, runs, drives, stops great (well maybe not the stopping great, they are not power brakes), it's not perfect, but pretty darn good for playing John Wayne on field maneuvers, or parades, or just running around in having fun, they go just about anywhere (if you're not in a hurry) and don't mind the rough, noisy ride. Ask all the questions and request all the photos you need to be comfortable with bidding, as there is no warranty expressed or implied, after all it is 65 years old and it doesn't drive like the brand new one I drove a long time ago. I most surely have forgot something that we have done, or should have done, as we are not perfect, but we work hard trying. I have tried to list most of the details and I will try to work with you if something found wrong, email and ask before leaving other than positive feedback as I am proud of my feedback. I can personally deliver it door to door within the lower 48 states, email for a quote, I'm higher that a regular transporter, but give better service, or international shipping can be arranged through mardy@horizonautoshipping.com ask for Mardy, she has been shipping jeeps and vehicles for me a long time with no complaints. Certified payment must clear my bank before the jeep will be released for shipping or picked up.
