CJ2A Replacement Fenders


phillapin
 

I am doing a pretty complete restoration of my 46CJ2A, and pulled the
fenders and grill off today. Grill is fine, but the fenders,
especially the passenger (battery acid) side are fairly well shot. I
could, in theory, rebuild them, but the time investment would be large.
I see replacement fenders on several sites - with WIDELY varying
prices! Beechwood was the highest at $390 per fender, with D&L Bensinger
(BEMAK) fenders listed at $175 each. Does anyone have any insight as
to the reason for large price variations? Is it metal thickness /
quality issues / or simply business reputation? Also - I am in Oregon
and would like to find a source closer to me than the East Coast! Any
comments would be appreciated. Thanks in advance. Phil


 

You used the word "restoration", if you are truly restoring the CJ2A, a
flat fender Willys enthusiast will spot Omix repros easily and make fun
of your baby. Better try a wanted ad on www.thecj2apage.com and browse
around while you are there, it is an excellent resource for CJ2A
related information.
On the other hand, if you are using the word "restoration" more
loosely, as in "fixin' it up to sell on Epay" then go for the Omix
stuff, the average rube won't know the difference.
