1959 Willys Bucket Loader Griswold, Ct **SOLD**
Brian forwarded this to me. I love this thing. I bet the body was toast, so the builder decided to make due with the frame and turn it into a true utility vehicle. The seller deleted it from Craigslist, so I dont’ know whether it sold or not. But, I thought it was worth showing everyone. This might have been a Willys truck? (I’ve added an example pic at the bottom).

1948 Truck Moundridge, Ks eBay
There’s work to do to restore this custom tow truck, but I thought it had some good character. The starting bid is $2000, but I think that’s a bit much considering the engine is frozen and there’s other work to be done.

1951 Truck, a 2nd truck, & more Colbert, Wa $4,499
Here’s 2 trucks and a bunch of parts. The parts look like they are in pretty good shape. I don’t follow truck prices that closely, but I think the price is a bit high given both trucks are apart.
“2 trucks. The main truck is mostly restored and a bit modified from stock but not fully assembled. It has a professionally rebuilt Ford 289 engine (bored to 291) and C4 automatic transmission, both with 0 miles. Transfer case and remainder of drive train are stock. Rear end is freshly rebuilt.
