This is an UNRESTORED, original Willys Wagon. It has been maintained but not restored. The mileage is actual, and it drives as good as it looks. It is not a mint vehicle. The paint has been refreshed at some time, but the old paint was not removed. I suspect it was getting faded. There is very minor surface rust, but I could find no spots that have bubbled through. The vehicle was either factory or dealer undercoated, and this coupled with dry climate and inside storage has preserved it. I had started some detailing under the hood, but there is plenty of work to be finished. This wagon was originally purchased from Bob Jones Motors in Denver. It was taken to Montana where inside storage and infrequent use preserved it. The interior is unbelievable. the seats are still near perfect, and the grass cloth headliner is uncut and in perfect condition. The wind welt has begun to deteriorate, and I ordered new to replace it. I couldn't bring myself to do it, as the original red fleck pattern is no longer available, and it is factory original. This has to be one of the best preserved original Willys wagons of this vintage. It comes with an original owners manual, and it's original jack. The wheel covers are from a later model. They came with the vehicle, they look good, so I left them on. As far as I know the only non functioning system is the wipers. At some time they were converted to electric, and the currently don't work. All of the necessary parts to reconvert to vacuum come with the vehicle, along with a number of sare parts that I have gathered over time. I have had a number of vintage cars up here in Summit County. This is the strongest running one I have ever owned. Most old iron overheats at 10,000 ft. This baby chugs up the hills in third gear. The Hurricane Six is still strong and comfortable at altitude. Payment will require a $500.00 deposit via pay pal within two days of the completion of the auction, or immediatly if the buy it now option is chosen. Full payment will be required within seven days of the end of the auction. I will accept a cashiers check. I have a clear Colorado title which will be released once funds are clear. I will attempt to answer any questions that you might have. this is an unrestored vehicle. It is sold as a collectors vehicle, and therefore has no guarantee or warranty. I can help arrange shipping, but ultimately it is the responsibility of the buyer. I am selling this before the snow flies because most shippers are not enamored with coming to Summit County in the Winter. Feel free to ask questions. Good Luck!
