Lost Biscuit For Sale $3000 Bozeman, MT

Back in mid Sept 2025 Dave had decided to sell his fleet of Jeeps due to his health conditions he wanted to clean up some of his stuff and pass it along.

He had created a post on his personal website and sent over the images to me as well with the info to do as you please (no pressure there!), we posted them up, he had 4 for sale, Patterson the '56 DJ, Lost Biscuit '49 CJ-3A on a CJ-5 platform, a race Jeep, and a very unique FC Transport rig.

A few days later he told be he had a bite on Lost Biscuit and it went down the road to MT. Based on the asking price I figure it was in need of repairs, the current pictures show it does need a lot of love but it still looks pretty good.

Searching up the various items that he did to this rig its a pretty neat Jeep. From the custom hand painted name to all sorts of small modifications that were done. Its been a journey, if you are in the market for a pretty neat base project this might be for you. The opportunity to own a real piece of eWillys history.

Andy actually gets the credit for finding this on Craigslist, during my research this AM the old posts had a lot of images that would only load when clicked and made a lot of the older posts to not properly display the photos, I worked to fix that this am it was a DB edit and impacted 61k posts and over 330k references, but was a very simple fix to take care of, so that back end work on the eWillys Archive is always in progress. I really hope you get some time to spend reading through the Lost Biscuit story and if in the market think about picking this one up.

    Makes me sad to see Biscuit not being taken care of...pretty damn good deal for someone. If I had room and time I'd grab that, but I don't have any of either!

    I had the exact same reaction. Hate to see it pastured.

    Welp, I going to try and honor David's project. Will there be some changes? Most likely, but some of that depends on what I find when I dig into it. Among other things, that shift tower has been minus the shifter and open to the elements for about a year and the 231 has been sans carb and exhaust manifolds for at least the same period. David did some nice work putting together the chassis. Lost Biscuit will find a place in my driveway tomorrow.

      Awesome to hear John, I would make it your own for sure, color, options, new name all of that is yours to do with. As you see it needs some love. I don't feel anyone is looking to make any of these static displays, the best Jeep is one that is out in the wild being enjoyed. Making it somthing you will use and enjoy while getting this on the road. The more you tailor it to your use the more it typically will be used. Have fun, keep us posted, you can email me updates along the way, happy to share with the group and post up progress.
