UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $4750.

“Original survivor. 98% rust free. So California Jeep. Excellent candidate for restoration. 95% of original parts still intact. 6 volts. This Jeep still runs and drives. Used as a parade Jeep for last 10 years. Clean California Title Nellybelle #3 or urban Myth? When I purchased this Jeep, the owner said it was bought from the movie studios in 1975. There were supposed to be 3 Nellybelle’s: A close up Jeep; a Stunt Jeep and a Long Distance Jeep. This was said to be the Long Distance Jeep. I have never been able to verify this. There is an engine noise that seems to be coming from harmonic balancer pulley area (not internal engine). Dualamatic overdrive has bad gear noise. Small channel on passenger side rusted out. 15” wheels.”

UPDATE: Sold. Was listed at $1800. Now in Idaho Falls, Id.

It runs and has a PTO winch. Looks like a good price.

“Fun little jeep. Brakes need rebuilt, but the motor runs well and the four wheel drive works.”

UPDATE: Was$2800. **SOLD**

Original rear diff w/floating axles, transfer case, transmission, suspension, front bumper. Also included is an extra bell housing, drawbar/hitch, and carburetor (probably junk).

It needs an engine.

“1948 Jeep Willys. Body restored and painted. Needs engine. Great project car. $1800 OBO- Make us an offer. Willing to negotiate.”

UPDATE:Was $4200.**SOLD**

(06/28/2013) This looks pretty straight. It’s not entirely stock.

“Current registration and insurance, clear title in hand.

Body- Dented, rusty, some minor repairs done by prior owner. It is very useable as is, actually better than most project jeeps I looked at before buying this one, but needs work to be perfect. Some of the hat channels underneath are rusted and need repaired. This is actually very solid, just want you to know what to expect.

Frame- Solid, no major issues or rust that I have found.

Engine- GPW (ford) 4cyl engine. (this is the military version of the stock motor= not the factory original engine). The GPW is a nice addition depending on your plans, as it it worth more than the stock motor as many people restoring military jeeps would like to have the original style motor. Engine runs good overall, but the exhaust needs to be removed and the heat exchanger flap freed up. This is the flap that re-circulated exhaust air around the intake when the engine is cold to make it run better. It is common for these to seize up and cause the exhaust air to always heat the intake. This causes the gas to get hot in the carb and flood the engine. I had this freed up last year, but it sat over winter and is stuck again. Radiator was rebuilt last year, like new.

UPDATE; **SOLD** Was on eBay.

This builder of this nice looking jeep never got a chance to enjoy it much. The body looks M-38.

“1948 Willy’s Overland Jeep CJ2A. This vehicle was left to my wife after her father passed away and I will describe it and answer questions to the best of my ability. All steel body professionally painted in real John Deere green and yellow, paint is new, original flat head four cylinder motor and overdrive transmission (which I’m told is very hard to find). Steering has been upgraded, brake master cylinder has been upgraded to a dual reservoir, all wiring is new, all brakes are new, brand new super lift soft ride lift kit, brand new shocks, brand new wheels and BFG tires, brand new swing out tire carrier with hitch, brand new upgraded plastic gas tank, LED tail lights, heavy duty front bumper with 8000lb winch, tow bar and mounts, flaming river SS tilt steering column, bucket seats with harnesses in the front, original Jeep rear seat (I’m told these are hard to find also), full roll bar, bimini top, warn brass hubs, optima battery, custom billet rear view mirror and roll bar mounts. He bought the speedometer used and it say 9K on it but the Jeep has less then 50 miles on it since complete rebuild, my father-in-law finished this build and unfortunately got sick and passed away before he could enjoy it. It has been stored in my shop ever since and I start it up once a week and let it idle for an hour or so. I have listed the details the best I can, I have not driven it besides in and out of my shop and around the yard but he drove it around the neighbor once a week. I am sure I am missing some details so please ask and I will do my best to answer.”

The ‘original tires’ aren’t necessarily ‘correct’, but definitely have value.

“1946 jeep cj2a willys. 4 cyl ford 2000 engine. Original undercarriage,running gear. No rust. Have original military wheels with correct military tires. Has new weber carb. New battery. Needs a little tlc but I just don’t have time. I have many new parts that go with it. Email questions.”
