Not totally original, but not bad either.  The jeep was appraised at $17k?  The seller needs to ask for his money back on that appraisal.

“You can see this rig close up at the U Park located at the corner of Badger & Old Rich by Forbes Storage Complex and Gloy’s Thai Food To Go
.
Excellent Original Condition. Runs excellent, under 500 miles on newly rebuilt original flathead 4 motor, comes complete with Snow Plow, Matching Willy’s Trailer, and a truckload of spare parts including Spare Tires, Chains.tool box, gerri cans, ball winch, soft top, hard top, start up accessories, and a whole buch more.

The Jeep alone has been appraised at 17K, not counting all the extras. A real 49er deal if ever there was one! Limited time to buy this complete set up! A perfect opportunity for a restorer or any enthusiast!

Will trade for Gold , Silver , Cash, or a combination of the three.

For more info call 907 347 4135 before 9 pm, and please, no texts or e mails (they will be ignored as spam). Just call the phone number if interested”
