UPDATE: Status Unknown. Was $3250.

It’s got some rough spots, but it runs. Seller uses the hand brake to stop. The hardtop (what’s left of it) may have been a Porter and Reed.

“I didn’t want to sell this but I have to pay for a new truck.

She’s not a show queen, but great around the farm, ranch, and trails. 1950s Willys F-head motor. Motor runs, clutch shifts well, and 4×4 works. Front brake hoses are cracked (available from vintagejeeps.com) so I’ve been using the hand brake. Tubes/tires hold air but are showing their age. Clean CA title on non-op.

More pics and videos available.

Recent carb rebuild and master cylinder rebuild. New spark plugs, points, and condenser. Timing still needs to be set. New Swepco motor oil and oil filter. Electric fuel pump. Headlights, brake lights, and turn signals work. Heavy duty galvanized hardtop. Doors are removable. Glass is good. Rollbar has not been bolted in.

I’ve included all the rusty photos since that’s what will need the most work. When Willys built these there were some body parts that had wood in them from the factory.. Not great for rigs that spend much of their time off-road or used as a snow plow. Floor pans and about 4’ of hat channel should be replaced at a minimum. Bed and tailgate are in good shape.

Has electric snow plow ram and lower mounts but no blade. Miscellaneous other parts and seats available. I can point you in the right direction for affordable new parts, body panels, tires, tubes, etc.”

    Brian,
    I had corresponded with you back in May of this year re: your jeep. I wonder if your situation there has changed such that you might reconsider selling “Not a Show Queen”?
    Thank you.

    Hi Jerry,

    I don’t know if Brian is a reader or not. I’ve updated the post. It’s possible that this was just pulled from the market and will be reposted at some future point. If I see it relisted I will send you an email.

    – Dave
