Today we start the next vehicle rebuild as we dive headfirst into the restoration of a classic 1947 Willys CJ-2A! This iconic Jeep has seen better days, but with any luck it's not going to be in too bad of shape. Hopefully the engine is not seized....

About Willys

Willys (pronounced "Willis") was a brand name used by Willys–Overland Motors, an American automobile company, founded by John North Willys. It was best known for its design and production of World War II–era military jeeps (MBs), Willys M38 and M38A1 military jeeps as well as civilian versions (Jeep CJs), and branding the 'jeep' military slang-word into the '(Universal) Jeep' marque.
