UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $15,500

Technically, the first year of production on civilian jeeps was 1945.  This CJ sounds like it has an interesting history.

“This is the Original Grand Daddy of all Civilian Jeeps- the Willy’s CJ2a is the first model year of the post WWII civilian market run. This is a very rare collector’s item. This is unit # 70007.  She is in excellent shape. This one was kept in a Detroit Show Room for over 25 years prior to being in storage for 10 years. When the dealer passed away his estate sold off all assets and that is how we found her, 5 years ago. We have the original Magazine Adds from Time Magazine, July 15, 1946.”

A reader purchased this deal.

“My wife says I have too many toys! I bought this to restore and play with and I have never gotten to it. It is stored inside I bled the breaks but they probably need a break job to be dependable. Starts and runs great. Motor really purrs. It’s in nice shape for how old it is. Sure would be fun to fix up or restore like new or play as is. Come take a look .”
