This 1947 Willy's Army Replica Jeep is for sale in our Louisville
KY. The Willy's Jeep has been around since late 1940 delivered to
the Army right before we entered WWII. They were an instant hit
with service men and all they could talk about when they got home.
Willy's was way ahead of them with CJ2 with the CJ standing for
Civilian Jeep. This 1947 CJ2 was built to replicate the original MB
with a ton of time and money to make it as close to the real thing
as possible. The green paint is exactly what you would expect with
its flat look and covering everything in sight. The inline 4 was
rebuilt and just like the original it runs like a clock. Of course,
the 4-wheel drive works like a dream I mean it is a Jeep. Now for
the fun stuff on this Army replica. First thing you notice is that
huge 50 CAL gun that sits between the two seats. It has been fitted
with a gas firing system much like the movies use. If you look down
from the 50 you will notice 2 grenades that have been deactivated.
IN the back you will notice a very correct CB radio that does work
adding to the authenticity of this Army Jeep. The collapsible
windshield has the classic Tommy Gun tucked away since there was no
such thing as 2 many guns. With the popularity and interest in WWII
memorabilia ion the rise this Jeep is sure to become the prized
piece of someone's collection. Options on this 1947 Willys Army
