Nice! I learned how to drive on one of these. Same year model as well.

Doesn't look like a pick up to me. Looks like a 1947 CJ2 with a half cab. Sold new in '47 for less than $900.

Yeah, I'd like to pick up an old CJ or an old MB, there are tons of them here in TX being used as deer lease rigs. But every time I see them on sale they're always 2k or higher for a "barely running, rusted, crappy camo painted, neglected, left out in the elements for 8 months, CLASSIC JEEP, with rotten tires." People are freaking idiots about their old jeeps. Why does a spray can camo paint job increase the value? :nuts: I just don't see it.

 

Lately there was one locally on CL listed as a "1936 Willis Jeep", he wanted 4K for it and had a nasty little statement in his ad that went something like (watered down of course), "Don't lowball me, I know what this Jeep is worth!" So I immediately upon reading his ad, I proceeded to email him and tell him that he didn't know what kind of Jeep he had. Jeep wasn't around in 1936, it was actually a Kaiser wagon and had little to do with Jeep, further more its worth 200-300 at most, or scrap prices with no glass and no motor. He responded with, "If you can't afford it, then don't bother emailing me!"

 

HAHAHAAHA :yes: :rotf: :rotf: :rotf:
