“restored 1953 Jeep Willis all parts original reliable.Ready to drive”


UPDATE: Status Unknown. Was $20,000.
The jeep doesn’t start at the moment.
“1943 Ford GPW. This jeep was completely restored (by my Grandfather), frame off, down to every nut and bolt in the 1990s and has been in the garage ever since. converter to 12v. Has a canvas top. Has some minor blemishes and a few minor spots of rust that has occurred post resort. The jeep was last driven about 2 years ago, without any driving issues or mechanical issues. The jeep has about 25 miles in the last 7 years, zero in the last 2 years. The jeep currently doesn’t want to start (engine cranks), not sure if its just gas or other. feel free to email or text any questions and i will do my best to answer.”

UPDATE: More pics and new link.
(The ‘GPW’ appears to be the one with the DJ-3A convertible body on it (brown).
