MudKat's New Project ('48 Willys)

[MudKat [Veteran Member]]

I traded for a 1948 Willys CJ-2A, that I'm going to rebuild. Here are some pics of the jeep the way I got it. I now have it stripped down to the frame.
Now I'm down to nothing but parts, so I'm sanding the frame and rebuilding bad parts.
8/15/09: Well, I've got the axles, wheels, and transfer case/tranny back on the frame. It's coming along pretty good so far.

hmmm, I know its a jeep thing, but how's it work with the engine behind the seats not connected to the tranny.

that will definitely be a cool project though.

Is that the military version?

No it's the civilian Jeep.

Down to the frame.
I'm not going back to the original CJ-2A, I'm going to modify it for off-roading to a point anyway.
