“Awsome true us navy jeep. I have never seen a navy jeep for sale anywhere. The navy did not have many , so that makes them very rare. Has been in my neighborhood for years and i never knew it. The owner saw that i restored jeeps and asked if i wanted to finish this one. It was on the family farm for years and the motor went out. They pulled the motor and had it built at knights engine rebuil;ders. { i have the paper work} the motor was never put back into the jeep. They lost interest and it just sat in the back of the work shop.

I mostly bought the jeep for the motor, but after i got it home i saw how good condition the body was in. Very little rust. It has all the original floor pans and back tub.the underside is one of the best i have ever seen.no rust at all on the frame or running gear. Then i saw that it was issued to the dept of the navy. Holy cow i have never even seen one of these.

I then decided to restore the jeep. It went to the sand blast shop for a complete rotisserie sand blast. All paint, dirt, grease ,were removed back to the bare metal. [see pictures] it was primered with rustolium gray primer. 1 – 1/2 gallons. I then did some body work but as you can see in the pictures i keep it like it looked when in service. I left a lot of the weld marks and dents. This is not a new tub but it is the original tub. You can see the front fenders have the normal damage from off road use. The fact that it is the original tub makes it the real thing. Jeeps that have had the tubs replaced are then kit cars and lose collector value.

Then the jeep was sprayed with rustolium battle ship gray enamal. Another 1- 1/2 gallons top to bottom. It now has more paint on it than when it was new. We installed the motor with a new clutch and bearing. New plugs ,points, new battery 12 volt . As expected being a new motor it started right up. It runs like new because it is. . We replaced the master cylinder with a new one. The brakes work but not the best. I did not pull the brake drums and have them turned or new pads. I recomend you do this. It drives and shifts fine, high and low work.
