Early 46 CJ2A For Sale California

Post by Dave 56 » Sun Mar 23, 2014 6:19 pm

I have an early '46 2A for sale. This jeep is a partially restored running and driving project. It's 98% original with the original column shift and 6V electrical system still intact. Great restoration project or drive it like it is. It is CJ2A 13175. Frame tag serial number matches the body tags on the firewall and the data plate on the dash. Engine was replaced sometime in the distant past with the correct style L-134 (factory warranty replacement?) but it's not original to the jeep.
Here's a partial list of original, correct parts included: (everything works unless noted): early MB type 6V generator; functional parking brake; original glass lens tail light (driver's side only), original reflector (passenger side only); original rear "Implement Bar" and trailer hitch tongue; original front bumper with original frame horn gussets; original seat frames with original style upholstery (seat backs may even be original); original steering wheel; original horn (needs a new horn button to work); original MB type (two vent) oil bath air cleaner and crossover tube; original Carter WO carburetor; original speedometer (works); original skid plate; original / optional DualMatic locking hubs (finger style); original side mount spare tire carrier; original 16" wheels (3 out of 5 original-to-the-jeep); original bug screen.

The jeep currently has a nice set of 700-15 tires and wheels installed. The transmission, transfer case, and differentials have not been rebuilt but function well with no strange noises. Four wheel drive works well. Locking hubs work well. New gear oil was installed. Gear boxes and differentials do not leak. The transmission shifts well but sometimes pops out of 2nd gear while coasting. All new brake system installed including master cylinder, lines, wheel cylinders and shoes. New fuel lines and tank installed. The cooling system has been flushed and a new 180 degree thermostat installed. It runs cool and doesn't overheat. The engine has not been rebuilt but runs smooth with plenty of power.
This jeep runs and drives (and stops) well and feels solid going down the road. If you know CJ2A jeeps, you will appreciate this gem. I have too many projects so as nice as it is, this one must go. Located in northern California 30 miles east of Sacramento. Asking $5750 or best offer.

Howdy Dave,

Jeep looks interesting. Nice, mostly original. I will be in LODI next month and can make a side trip from Sacramento if it is still available. Would you forward me a photo of the instruments please.

Thanks,

Brad Gates

Very nice Dave! Guess that 1 1/2 ton is taking priority in the project list and something has to go. I'm still looking for a windshield frame for my 2a. Should have jumped on that one listing you sent me the link for. I'm sure that you'll be able to sell this little gem quickly. Send me a couple pics of that truck as you get it back together. Thanks, Bill
