1948 willys jeep CJ2A. New 6 volt battery, newer oil, new coolant. Engine turns. Have title. 6k OBO. Used for years to run the hills of Sparks. Will be great addition to your classic car collection. Just in time for Hot August Nights.
Selling car as part of a closing down a shop. Just helping shop owner sell items.
Not sure this is the right speedo for a ’57, so the 11k miles could be way off. Never know till you get the SN and look at what this one is all about. But the Half Cab, Roll Bar, Front Bumper are neat. Must have been a fun rig, jamming out to the radio!

There's some odd points in the body on the passenger side and I can't tell if that's the lighting, rust, or paint. This doesn't run.

(From 2014) This Blue Star aluminum top was built by the Blue Manufacturing Company, founded in Kansas by Max Blue circa 1946. 'Blue Star' was the brand name used on several products he produced. There's some conflicting information, but it appears In 1946 Blue Manufacturing was building aluminum airline parts. About that time, as a hobby, Max began building aluminum boats. He also tried manufacturing and selling jeep hard tops.
Demand was so great for the boats that in 1948 he leased space and built boats full-time. Meanwhile, he either sold or abandoned the jeep top business altogether. Given only a few Blue Star tops have surfaced over the last few years, I imagine he didn't sell too many of them.
"Its built from a bunch of different parts but basically a 47 2A with an F head. Stock axles, 2.5 lift springs and new 35" tires. Runs and drives good. Put 500 hyway and trail miles on it last summer. It will go 55mph but it struggles with hills. Not a restoration or show jeep. It has scratches, dents and bondo. This was built for trail riding and cruising around town. I have a modified cj5 steel half cab for it too. "
(11/19/2013) This would make a good restoration or just drive as is.

Data plate looks legit, screws look correct, if so works out to an Early CJ-6 from 1956.
So it’s a project, but if your into the early rigs might be something to look at here to see how they progressed with the tub and the sort over time.
Also has a half cab.
