Search: Porter & Reed

This top portion of this top is a Porter & Reed hardtop. It appears the sides and back were removed and replaced by canvas (or remnants from a soft top).

"1946 Jeep CJ2A · Other_body_style · Driven 1,000 miles 46/47 CJ. Minor modifications over its history. 12 volt. Was running up till a few years ago. Previous owner had medical issues. It does turn over. My son(owner ) is working on starting it up. Price is NOT firm. If your interested I can give you his number"

The more complete jeep has a gear shift that appears to the driver's side of the transmission gear shift. That could be a crankshaft PTO engagement shifter. The hardtop looks similar to a Porter and Reed, but the front of the roof doesn't slope down at the correct angle. I'm not sure what top it is.

"This is for both Willies Jeeps 1946. One title. Use for parts or get a title and use both to build one. The second one has a electric hydraulic pump that goes with"

UPDATE: Still Available.

(05/10/2020) The jeep doesn't run. May have a Porter & Reed Hardtop. It also has some kind of carrier(?) above the top.

"1947 Willy's Jeep. I have owned this Jeep for numerous years and have too many projects to complete. The jeep has original equipment and it currently does not run. I have a second engine that works well with a transmission and transfer case that goes with the jeep. There is a new fuel system installed, as well as a new gas tank with a professionally rebuilt carburetor. I have receipts for many of the parts. It is currently licensed and titled. Mileage unknown"

UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $1000. Might have a Porter & Reed hardtop.

(09/29/2010) I can't tell much about it from the pics.  It appears pretty stock.

"The jeep is in fairly good condition i cleaned it up a lot with the power washer. Needs a battery and tune up and should start rite up, it was running last time it was parked but was sitting in a shed for a couple years. It still uses a 6v battery. I was in the process of restoration but i just dont have the time and money to do it. Is a great restoration vehicle for someone thats not in tobad of shape. It still has the winch on the vehicle and i have the door pieces and other bars that came with it. I also have the original title for the jeep."

UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $2200. May have a Porter & Reed hardtop

(10/09/2012) This looks to have rust along the driver's side.  It has no title.

"1946 Willys CJ2a jeep that has been used on a deer lease. The jeep runs and drives good. The gauges all work, horn works, lights all work, the four wheel drive works good, the transfer case seal on the front drips gear oil, the transfer case makes some noise but still works good, the engine runs good, the cab on the jeep can come off, but works pretty good in the winter. The jeep does have some rust, this jeep would be good for hunting out of or using on a ranch. The jeep has not been on the road and the title is lost, but will provide a bill of sale to the winner."

UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $2700.

(01/08/2017) Bill shared the one. Looks to be a Lefty with a Porter & Reed hardtop.

"Jeep Willys 1948 nice floors very little rust if any, has transmission T94 and transfer case installed, V-6 Buick engine is sitting in engine bay, not hooked up yet, engine ran good before setting in compartment, no wiring done yet, comes with spare tire, front seats are good, no back seat, has hard to find artic top and doors, glass needs to be replaced, nice spare tire on a good rim, has DMV paid for the year with new Ca. plates, incorrect bumper has been taken off and a brand new black painted Willys bumper is seating in jeep ready to be put on. No trades."

UPDATE: **SOLD** Was  on eBay. Possibly a Porter & Reed hardtop.

Here's a CJ-2A that has the spare tire on the driver side and the bow holders on the passenger side.  I see no evidence to indicate this was a military vehicle or a military ambulance.

"I am selling a 1948 Willys for a friend of mine.  It runs good, all tires hold air, and it's fun to drive around the farm.  It has a clear missouri title.  He was told that it used to be a military ambulance.  I have posted several pics of it, but I can get all the pics you need, so just send me an email and tell me what you would like to see. I am starting the auction at the lowest price he said he would take for the willys, but if you want to make a reasonable offer I will ask him if he will take it."

UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $13,500.

(08/06/2022) This combo package includes a CJ-2A, boat and trailer. I have no idea what the value of the boat and trailer would be. It has a Porter & Reed hardtop.

"Here is the ultimate travelers package. Jeep, boat, and trailer. The Jeep is in good condition and is great for any outdoor enthusiast. The Jeep is a 1947 Willys Jeep CJ2A. The mileage is unknown. Facebook wanted a number so we we made something up. The boat is a 12’ 1962 Montgomery Wards Sea King Jon Boat. The motor is a 1942 Montgomery Wards 3.5 HP. The boat comes with the trailer. The package also includes a 11’ trailer for the Jeep. This is a great package for anyone that enjoys the outdoors and loves to fish."

This is supposed to be a CJ-2A chassis, but I don't see the older transfercase support on the outside of the frame (maybe it is a late '48?). This may also have a Porter and Reed hardtop.

"48 Jeep. Have title but is not in my name can have it transferred to me first if you prefer. Partial restoration has begun. Motor has been rebuilt and frame has been painted. Probably needs some bushings etc replaced but overall in great shape. Body is rough and someone has started cutting panels but didn't finish. All cut outs are there along with new fabricated panels. Some complete some not. Most parts are there. Even have a hard top roof for it and doors but the glass is broken. Still Restin but not Rusting anymore. Parts are Not for sale. ALL OR NOTHING"

UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $2200.

Might have a Porter & Reed hardtop.

"I have a 48 Willy's CJ2A for sale. It has a hard top and doors, factory front passenger and rear seats, and an aftermarket heater to keep warm. It has been upgraded to a 12 volt system and currently has a 70s ford 4 cylinder engine in it. The drive train is all original and I have the original go devil engine that turns freely. I had picked up this jeep with dreams of restoring it, but life got in the way. There's rust, and she's got character, but overall the jeep is in running, driving, and almost stopping condition. You can put in a little time and have a cool willy's to drive around in, or if you wanted, most of the parts and extras are there to restore to its former glory. Email me with questions or for pictures, Craigslist isn't letting me upload them for some reason. Asking $2200 obo."
