This youtube video for the jeep station wagon has been around for more than a decade, but it’s the first time I’ve seen it.
BOOK: The Last American CEO
I just finished reading The Last American CEO, a book about the transition of ‘Jeep’ from Kaiser-Jeep, to AMC, to Chrysler. The principal character and source of most of the material was Joe Cappy, who was the final AMC CEO before AMC was bought by Chrysler.
Among the book’s more interesting revelations, it argues that if it weren’t for an assassination, that Chrysler might never have purchased AMC.

“1953 Willys cj3b. Body is garbage as far as for driver or show use. Has the flat head 4 instead of the overhead 4 like what comes in the cj3b. Have the title. Frame appears decent. Has not been ran since early last summer but “should” start/run/drive. If interested I’ll get it running. New gm front disk brake conversion, water pump and gas tank installed about 4 years ago. Needs full resto to be a driver or run on the farm as is.”
1946 VEC CJ-2A Tioga, PA **SOLD**
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $4000.
It’s got the early windshield, but does not have full floaters. It runs.
“Got to many projects going right now-
1946 Willy’s CJ2A Column shift. Runs & drives, Brakes need going thru-
Frame is Solid, body is pretty good-some spots need attention, floors need a little attention also but are not shot- few patches and they’ll be good.
Turn key and the Go Devil Flat Head starts right up! Has been converted to 12V. But not molested-
I can text a video! I drive it around the yard and up the rd(no brakes)
Looking to see what’s out there for trades- this is valued at around $4000 as it sits- most Column shift Willy’s are in private collections or museums. & this is a VEC has Military tool slots, column shift, square washers, many GPW marked parts. Machine gun mount on the crossmember up under the body!”
