UPDATE: In a comment below Claudia mentioned that Jarvis Jeep had a very catchy jingle: Beep Beep Jarvis Jeep. Apparently, that jingle was played a lot in Oregon as a variety of folks from Oregon have mentioned it on the internet. I tried to find a commercial with jingle, but no luck. Also, at one time Jarvis Jeep was the largest jeep dealer in the nation. If I’d realized Robert Jarvis was still alive I’d have tried to contact him. Unfortunately, he passed away this past April.
Apparently, he was quite the character and boxer. According to the article in this magazine, during a boxing tournament in 1946 Rocky Marciano broke his hand on Bob’s head. After which, they became life long friends. (go here to learn more and then search for ‘Jarvis’.)
Here’s an image with the jingle on it that was posted on pinterest:
Craig scanned this from the January 1959 issue of Jeep News. It features the Jarvis Jeep dealership from Portland, Oregon.
John forwarded this unusual race. It’s was a 7610 mile rally across some desolate terrain. Sure looks like it would have been an experience!

It’s listed as a WW2 jeep.
“1940’s WW2 Jeep with trailer. Fully restored frame up. Runs and drives everything in mint condition.”
Might be solid, but has some paint missing on the fenders.
“For sale is a 1956 Willys Station Wagon-with a Chevy 283 engine. I am the second owner of this gem, as I recently purchased the vehicle in Denver, and drove it out here to DC for the summer. There is currently a Chevy 283 engine in her, as it was replaced in the early 70s to provide more power for longer distances. She runs great, body has some defects, but overall, she is ready to drive anywhere, just in need of some simple body work, and a possible paint job depending on your intentions with the vehicle.
Asking $6,000 OBO. Send me an email, or text me at eight0eight-sevenTwo2-zero3one9, would love to answer any questions you may have, and meet to show you the vehicle.”

“1974 Willys Jeep CJ2A – This Jeep just had a complete rebuild of the motor, clutch, transmission, transfer case, drive shafts, and a locker in the front diff. We also replaced the entire fuel system, it has a brand new fuel tank, fuel lines, and an electronic fuel pump. It has a 2-3″ lift, brand new 32-33″ mud terrain tires and brand new black wheels. We also just installed new front seats. The engine runs great. We would also consider trading our Jeep (plus cash) for a 4 seat Polaris RZR.”
This year’s Willys America Open House will be Saturday July 19th in Cazadero, California. We won’t be there this year as we have a family event that same weekend.
There’s a Caravan that will also be leaving San Francisco in the morning. You can learn more about their itinerary here.

Anyone get there photo in this CJ-2A yet? It’s located at the Asheboro Zoo in North Carolina. http://www.nczoo.org. This may be located in the kid zone, but I can’t tell for sure.
In 2010 this same jeep was located in a different part of the museum and draped with stuffed animals.
UPDATE: Was $4500. **Status Unknown**
Runs and drives.
“This is an early flat fendered Willys Jeep. Primitive and reliable. The CJ-3B has a higher hood to allow clearance for the overhead valve F-134 motor (early CJ-2s and WW2-type Jeeps had flat head motors). This is the 2nd CJ-3B I have owned. It runs and drives fine. It has an overdrive unit, and while it is not too smart to drive an old Jeep fast, it will do 65 mph. About two years ago, we replaced the entire braking system – master cylinder, wheel cylinders, drums shows, brake lines and silicone brake fluid – and installed an electronic distributor for reliability. The windshield has a crack, so it will need a new one. This Jeep is not perfect, but starts for me every time, and is generally very solid for a 60 year old Jeep. I have an after market tailgate and a few other small parts. Tires old, but have tread and hold air. I have a file of receipts that indicate extensive mechanical rebuilds in the ’80s – and not many miles since then according to previous owner. I have owned the Jeep for about 7 years.”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $6900.
It’s kind of Barbie-Jeep looking.
“Calling all Beach Barbies! Runs good! Cranks right up! Ready to cruise.”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $7500
Looks in good shape.
“Great 1955 M38A1 – owned it for just over a year and in that time have significantly improved the drivability and reliability of it. It is still 100% original, down to it’s 24volt system. 4 wheel drive will climb you up a tree. Runs and drives well, and feels like a 58yr old Jeep! Would be an ideal beach buggy(didn’t get a permit this year, or it would be!).
Most recent work includes:
Head completely reworked, new coil, new plugs, valves adjusted, etc.
Cosmetically it’s in great shape – especially considering it’s age. No significant rust, some surface rust on the frame – no big deal. I decided to have it repainted from it’s original OD Green to a mil-spec Sand Beige (a 3 stage PPG color). I’d say it’s a level above an amateur job, but certainly a 10 footer. A fantastic color though, one that you don’t see enough for this era of Jeep: hence why I had it repainted. The seats were also redone to factory original. Bimini too included.”
Appears solid. It has diamond plate laid in the rear cargo area.
“excellent Condition 3 speed trans with overdrive”
Runs?
