“For sale is a 1957 WILLYS JEEP that runs and drives great! 4wd and lock outs work, trans shifts like a 70 year old 3 speed. I’ve put many miles on this thing since bringing it back to life, all around town and country driving, maybe 45 mph or so.

CONS:
The original engine at some point has been replaced with a ford 2.3L 4 cylinder out of a 70s pinto( using the original trans/ transfer case and axles) it also shares the brake cylinder of that make. It has a steering column maybe from a pinto? And seat from another vehicle as well. The original fuel cell has been move to the rear for whatever reason. The windshield is broken (I’ve gotten a quote and am willing to pull the frame, do the work and have the new one installed for a small fee something). The body does have some glass / filler in it but VERY solid frame and body, suspension ect.

“1953 WILLYS JEEP 4 X 4 IN GREAT CONDITION This is a 4X4 that will take you anywhere that runs great! It is in great shape and has a 4 cylinder motor, 3 speed manual transmission, fold down windshield, fresh paint, tow hitch, and great for off road.

“One day in 2013, I was talking with a buddy and he asked if I was interested in a Willys Jeep and since I was thinking about a “project” car, I said yes. Well, I got this little gem on a farm in the Hood River Valley! I call it Taz Willy and he has won several trophies at car shows! But, as happens with time, I have purchased a travel trailer and will be doing more traveling so I decided to give someone else the opportunity to have fun with Taz.

Even though he was used in the orchard as a spraying machine, and stored for quite a while, he was in good shape and all the dried mud on his underside protected him from rusting! I stripped him down to his frame and painted it with frame paint to continue his protection.

The engine has been rebuilt by Portland Engine Rebuild using the original f-head engine block. It is the 4 cylinder stock engine. Engine has 925 miles – all road miles.

The transmission is the original– 3-speed with compound low. This required only replacement of fluid. I works good.

Cleanest, rust free body (see pic of body’s rear) you will find? No rust on the windshield frame? Hmm.

“BARN FIND – 1960 Jeep Willys – military
w/ title

In door kept, this is one of the cleanest rust free original jeep bodies you will ever find.
This is a great find for restoration – you will be hard pressed to find one better.
Jeep is unmolested – most all original are here.
This is a usable body and frame, the windshield frame is perfect – no rust!
Has a tailgate which is also perfect – original.
Has the rare original under passenger seat utility cover.
Original Ford style jack.
Only flaw is the rear tailgate rail was carelessly pushed in at some point – this can be pulled out as there is still lots of metal here.
Stored in-doors 40 years. This old girl is EXACTLY what your looking for…

PA Titled!
Asking $3250.00”

To me, this looks like a replacement body rather than a body that’s been restored.
