Updates Friday Evening

I’ll do some updates later tonight.

Here’s a photo of Biscuit, undressed and packed away in the garage. The next step is to hang the motor and tranny in the frame so I can install the new motor mounts. I’m hoping to get that configured before leaving tomorrow.

Walter spotted this. It seems longer than a 150 and shorter than a 170. I’m gonna go with 150.

“This jeep was running last year. My grandpa passed away and now I cant crank it. Needs work”

MB Jeep Desk on eBay

• CATEGORIES: Features This site contains affiliate links for which I may be compensated.

UPDATE: This has been relisted on eBay

(11/15/2013) Zack spotted this unusual find: A MB Desk. I could very easily see myself writing at such a desk. I think I’m gonna have to build a version of it.

“This Jeep Desk is modeled from a WW 2 Willys. It has a real grill, headlight buckets, black out lights and dash plaque. The paint is authentic Lusterless Olive Drab. The invasion star is painted with a flat white. The fenders are an exact copy and are made of wood. The hood is also an exact copy but made of metal.”

“I regretfully must sell my truck, I am in college and can’t afford to take it back with me after thanksgiving. No reasonable offer will be refused. This truck runs and drives well. I put about 2 grand into fixing it up. Now I know why I am broke. I have documentation of work done. Has a new exhaust system from midas and under warranty among many other improvements. I have driven this truck 150 miles non stop from Alexandria to Harrisonburg many a time and has yet to fail me. I have put about 2,500 miles on it since it bought it. Of course its not perfect and has its old car issues, but nonetheless, it moves and stops when you want it to. Nothing screams sex more than a 15 foot long, 5,000 pound, carbureted beast of years past. may consider trade for a running vehicle.

This vehicle is currently registered and insured and was safety inspected in August 2013, has Alexandria windshield tax decal and finally a clear Virginia title in my name. Exempt from annual emissions inspection!Take the keys (and title) and drive away!

Feel free to call or text or email
