Given that the TC was rebuilt, this might be a good value. However, there’s enough dirt on top of the TC that it must have been used for at least a little while.
“warn or saturn all range overdrive and a dana 18 tranfercase, this was rebuilt and all bolted to trans and engine but pop had a stroke and project days are done, ready to install and go willys.
Only habit appears to be holding this jeep together.

The front of this tilts down a bit too much, but otherwise this looks nice.
“Completely rebuilt and mostly original with a few added extras. Not a single bolt unturned. Bead blasted every part and painted with industrial epoxy paint. All bearings replaced, engine (flathead 4cylinder) completely rebuilt, completely rebuilt radiator rodded out, front and rear differentials rebuilt, transmission and transfer case rebuilt.

This is supposed to be restored, but the driver’s side fender looks a little odd to me.

“This is a very neat truck. The first year for the Willys jeep truck production was 1947, This truck was the 972 willys truck ever built out of only appx 2600 .. Its a 2 T model. 2 wd. With the rare Column shift transmission. Flat head 4cyl motor. It is in remarkable condition for its age. These are prone to rust and this one is very solid !!!
I purchased this truck at the Iola vintage car show. My son and I have taken it to some shows, driven it around town and had fun with it. Now we want to buy a muscle car . These trucks as well as any old car are prone to rust, What impressed me the most about this truck was how solid the body was. This willys has never had the floors patched !!! Even the nicest old cars ive seen have had the front floors patched. This jeep has the orig floors. very nice body mounts underneath. orig Willys rocker panels, Nice door bottoms. Orig steel front and rear fenders. No rust in bed floor. The only body damage is on the tailgate,which is dented in the middle. They do sell new ones. I dont know how old the paint job is. Not a show job, but shines nice. Has some scratchs here and there. Wheels have been repainted, Tires are old, It think the spare is the orig 1947 tire !!! The interior has a new headliner. Orig cover on the upper seat back, and recovered lower seat, Orig steering wheel, The wipers dont work. Doors open and shut great. Lights all work great”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $2500

Here’s a website with an extensive history of four wheel drive. Based on a credit at the bottom of the page, I believe this was originally created/published by Four Wheeler.com.
Recently, Egon, from Lichtenstein, and I had been having a conversation about a Jeep project he’s trying to determine how to tackle. Once again, the google online translation software has been effective enough to allow a conversation to occur.
Egon recently sent me some photos of his projects. He’s done some very nice restorations. Danke Egon!
Here’s a 1955 Steyr 15hp Tractor Restoration:
And a family of tractors:

“Very cool driver>>>>all original drive train and still runs like new. This is a good project or keep as is and use as a slow driver.
