This Willys CJ-2A has been modified with a 2.5-liter Jeep inline-four and a four-speed manual transmission as well as M38-style body characteristics, a lift kit, power-assisted front disc brakes, power steering, aftermarket 15" wheels, 33" Mudstar tires, a winch, a rear-facing light bar, a Garmin GPS, a receiver hitch, and an aluminum radiator.

The CJ-2A was the first full-production civilian jeep, dubbed the 'Universal Jeep' by Willys. Just like the CJ-2 Agrijeep before it, the CJ-2A was intended for farming and industrial applications. One major distinction of the CJ-2A is the 7-slot grille.
