1947 CJ-2A Kentucky $10,900

Looks good.

"1947 Willys Jeep CJ2A for sale. I bought this Jeep in 1999. I am only the third owner of this 70 year old vehicle. I completed a total frame off restoration on it. Everything was restored to original with the exception of a 12 volt conversion. I have taken this Jeep to two car shows and did win an award at one of them.

Since I did a lot of the work myself, this could be considered an amateur restoration. Some of the work completed during the restoration include: Engine was rebuilt by Ron's machine shop in Ohio - Frame was sandblasted and painted - Wheels were sandblasted and powder coated - New body tub and front fenders from Willys-Overland in Toledo - Original hood, grill, tailgate, and windshield frame - I rebuilt transmission, transfer case, and carburetor."

I think this deserves a "nice" tag.

Lots of time and money into this. Great job.

Beautiful. Certainly not amateur based on the results.

Agreed. I forgot to tag it at all ... Tagging complete!

Nice jeep, I was wondering if some guys use the metal seat backs to gain some more seating room. I have not sat in one, but probably not too uncomfortable.

I couldn't say why, but I agree with you.

This one is really sweet! The underhood detail really jumps out.
