1947 CJ-2A Townsend, MA SOLD

UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $7400.

(07/26/2018) The frame's been modified up front. That's an unusual holder for the winch.

"Nice -running registered Willy's from Washington state -nice patina , new tires needs some TLC about 100 hrs on rebuilt motor .Has PTO winch works great-a real untouch willys and drives and shifts sweet .if it's posted its still available thanks"

Going by the radiator pic, that is NOT a 51 model year. The radiator is bottom mounted which was changed sometime in 1950 to grill mounted. Also, the body is a CJ-2A up to serial # 224391 going by the trailer socket cover. No CJ3A body had a trailer socket cover.

Very good observation Giraud, also the front parking lights are 1946.

Hmmm ... I think this is all on me. For reasons I can't explain at the moment, I listed this one incorrectly. Thanks for pointing it out. I'll update it (somehow I missed the comment when posted initially). The radiator was changed from bottom to side mounted on the 3A in the latter part of the 1949 model year. A service bulletin puts it at 31374, but the latest serial number documented is 21656. Also changed was the gage of the grille steel, which was beefed up from 22 to 18 gage. http://www.cj3a.info/cj3a/date3a.htm

Geography again Dave. MA not WA. Did you have Port Townsend on the brain?

I concur. It would be PORT Townsend in WA.
