“Selling my 53 Willys. I just don’t use it enough. This is a 53 body, on a 58 frame. It has a Dauntless V6 out of a 67CJ. Lots of upgrades;
11 inch brakes with dual reservoir master cylinder, updated steering with a saginaw steering box, new tie rods, etc. All new springs and shocks. Engine was rebuilt 5 years ago and has maybe 1500 miles on it. Rebuilt transmission(T14) , transfer case ,and overdrive. Tires are excellent. Lots of spare parts included.
5:38 rear end so this is not a highway jeep”
