Robert, Your rig is awesome! Nice walk around. I have the same return filter on Grampa's Jeep. Someone told me once that putting the return line to the top makes it less likely to push vapor to the carb, instead pushing the vapor to the return line and tank. Your's seems to be working fine as it is, but just something to keep in mind.
Looks like a jeep, sounds like a jeep, I can honestly smell that flathead exhaust. It must be a jeep! I've got the same dash, but a one piece windshield. I'd love to get a 2, but I love my good little 3A. We call it PutPut for obvious reasons. I love seeing these around, thank you for sharing this!
Love your jeep and what you’ve done with it. We think alike. There are enough restored units in the world. Not just here, but in countries all over the world. My thinking is that a jeep like yours, still doing yeoman’s duty are just as much a testament to one of the greatest tools of WWII, Korea, etc. Over time, I’m sure you’ll make improvements like floors, but at your own pace. I also like the rat rod style paint job you have. A coat of satin clear coat here and there might improve rust protection? No pretensions. Just a working masterpiece‼️😍🍀🍀 Ps I also like the tall but narrow tires. Those big tires create a lot of drag. There’s a reason Model T’s made good all-weather vehicles⁉️😁👍🏻
Nice rig! I also have a 46 2a... put the Brennan conversion on for the brakes, they work great. Also run the exact same tire setup.Frame off, Every nut and bolt touched but left the body in the patina.... I did modify my intake to fit the 2 barrel carter.... made a pretty good difference....
Hello Robert- Great cj2a! I just obtained one Im working on a few days ago. I like what you've done to her, looks very functional. BTW Im looking for a draw bar if you want to get rid of that one! -jim overstreet
Your jeep may be a vec or early 2a. I have a 45 and have the same grill and marker lights. My jeep got the axe and shovel tub from the mb/gpw and has a few other war time parts. I have a 5 digit seriel number 119XX
Armstrong made a tier with the same Lug pattern as the tiers in this video. they were named "True Track. I had a set of them on my 2A, size 11.5x32 15. they were pretty good in the mush and snow. I had Powr Lockers front and rear.
@@cmac956 He only mentioned "CJ5" twice; at 06:54 while referring to the tailgate which is of a type not used until 1969 (AMC) with the large 'JEEP' stamped center panel and at 11:09 referring to the 'spin on' type oil filter of "later CJs".
@@grandpacheaposgarage2964 awesome!! That is what I was thinking about doing with mine. The box is tight, and linkage is good. I would be interested if you do and East coast go devil run.
It's beautiful. A work of art. Most people wouldn't understand. ;)
One of the greatest 4x4 ever created.

Sweet rig! Love that winch
Thanks. I like your videos and trucks. Maybe we can get together sometime for a camping trip.

รถยนต์ สวยงามมาก ครับ
Excellent
Thanks
I don’t think it’s ugly at all I love it
Thanks
She (the Jeep) sings well.
It's not 'pretty ugly', it's _ugly pretty!_
Love your Jeep, I just picked up a 48 2A and would love to do a Willy’s ride somewhere in the southeast once she’s road worthy
@@grandpacheaposgarage2964 just moved to Simpsonville, SC from NC
@@grandpacheaposgarage2964 I’d be game. Me and a buddy of mine were talking about doing the GA traverse next year at some point

I had a set of the 9-16s Armstrongs. Good tires
On your front steering, it uses the stock bell crank?
Yes it’s still using the stock bellcrank.
Muy lindo
It could be a 1960 , I had one just like it, very good Jeep,
CJ2A ended production in 1948.
