“M 170, build date 3/54, serial # 10023.
I purchased this vehicle a few years ago purely to save it from the Vermont elements. When I bought it the engine was lightly stuck, needed brake work and the fuel system was contaminated. This was my first Willys project but I didn’t have a place to get after it, I parked in my shed for a year while a shop was built, I sprayed the underbody with Fluid Film to stop any corrosion until I could get to it. It has lived in a heated shop since the shop was completed. I will describe everything to the best of my abilities, there are many pictures, if I don’t cover something please reach out and I will tell you what I know. Keep in mind I am not an accomplished mechanic nor am I a body man, the good news is that I am fully aware of this fact. I didn’t rip into anything I had no business touching, I had professional help with the carburetor and engine. The best news of all is that I don’t own a welder. Continue reading →

“1954 Willys M170 Jeep This was originally a M170 ambulance jeep that had been converted into a brush truck for the Lisbon VFD. It has a brush guard on the front with a 10,000 lb Warn winch. It is a 24 volt system with new 12 volt lights and ignition switch. It has 31772 miles which are believed to be original but can not be verified as such. The jeep runs and works and comes with the original lights and new carburetor. This unit is located at the Center Township Garage.”

Has some updates, including the Jeepster front end. Seller would like it to go to someone who “gets it”.

“Selling my m170/CJ6 $4000 Hanover, MA
One of the most unique jeeps I’ve ever seen. It was built in the 80s by a local father and son as a show car and later used around their property as a plow truck.

Dauntless V6 t14 3 speed transmission Dana 18 transfer case offset dana 44 rear and a 27 front both with 11” drums from late 60s or 70 CJ5. Frame is in excellent shape body is good but has some dents and small about of rot on the front floors. M170 door opening converted to cj6 and obviously the commando grill.

It was running on Jerry can and drove onto my trailer at my buddies shop but didn’t start today when I went to unload it. Haven’t had time to mess with it. My plan was to go back to military m170 and I have sourced a front and rear end, engine, transmission, transfer case, set of 5 correct wheels and a short nose cj5 front clip. That can be negotiated for. I’d like to see it passed on to someone who “gets” it.”

UPDATE: Still Available.

(09/12/2016) Could be a drive-now and restore as desired type of jeep.

“1954 USMC M170 Willys ..runs, drives, stops. You may have seen it running around Hibbing or Side Lake in the last few yrs.

Please do some research online …USMC M170 1954. About 3300 built from 54 to 64, few for the Marine Corps. Find specs like 55mph and 15mpg, unlike it’s predecessors.
It is mechanically a M38A1; for the most part, so parts are inexpensive and easily found online or even out of the TwinCities supply co.

I sanded areas looking for “ambulance” markings and found none. I media-blasted it so as to see real condition …unbelievable that something this old can be this rust-free/straight. One of the reasons I attribute to the “undercoating” the Marine Corps used, that makes current high-dollar bed-liners look weak. I sprayed a couple coats of “green” to keep the condition. It is not “restored”, it’s in honest condition w/nothing hiding.
