Overview of 1947 Willys CJ2A For Sale by Owner

The famous Jeep CJ by Willys-Overland is a story of smarts. Since World War II was ending soon, Willys-Overland knew that their biggest customer – the US Military – would soon be ending their massive orders for the famous World War II military Jeep that mobilized Americans and allies across the European Theatre of Operations. So, they turned it into a civilian vehicle, aimed at agricultural and other light industrial uses. This proved to be harder than expected, because a civilian Jeep must survive hard use for years, not months. Nevertheless, they succeeded in a massive way. In fact, today, the Jeep CJ continues in spirit through its direct descendant, the Jeep Wrangler! Now, we have a 1947 Willys Jeep CJ-2A for sale from Maupin, Oregon. This is a great way to pick up an earlier CJ and see just how utilitarian and purposeful it was back then. In fact, over 214,000 were made between 1945 and 1949!

Exterior and Interior

Painted in Military Green, this 1947 Willys Jeep CJ-2A features a foldable windshield as well as updated glass all round. It’s quite a compact little thing, coming in at a mere 130 inches long and 59 inches wide. Rolling on aftermarket wheels in the same green shade as the body, it features off-road tires to ensure that its legendary go-anywhere persona is retained. The interior of this 1947 Willys Jeep CJ-2A can accommodate four adults and is open to the elements. You’ve got a body-colored dashboard with the necessary instrumentation, a steering wheel, three pedals, a gear lever and transfer case levers. There’s also some underfloor storage on hand. Yes, this is basically a military vehicle that’s been civilianized and makes for a fine off-road toy.

Engine

This 1947 Willys Jeep CJ-2A packs the famous Go Devil gas engine under the hood. The 2.2-liter 4-cylinder unit is an L-head unit that is pretty similar to the one found on Wartime Jeeps. So, it’s pretty tough and can take a beating. It sends power to all four wheels through 3-speed manual gearbox and two-speed transfer case. We’re also told that this Jeep has received updated wiring.
