Vehicle Detail
No Reserve - Local Pickup - No shipping - Clear Oklahoma Title This vehicle is in N.E. Oklahoma (zip 74330) - Tag expired since MARCH 2009 This vehicle starts, runs smoothly and stops. Engine runs very smooth and powerful, not blowing smoke clouds. The 4 wheel drive system is in working condition and drive train is intact and most likely all original. The floor boards are not rusted out or rusted through... they are solid. I do not know what is, or isn't, original concerning the top or the doors??? You will need to make those determinations if they are a factor in your bidding. I have every reason to believe that the full engine, drive-train and rolling gear are all original but again... you will need to make that determination. Lights work, horn works, whole thing works and is a blast to "putt" around in. It has a keyed ignition switch and push button starter. Brakes work.This is a 50+ year old vehicle in used condition and will inevitably have needs along the way. I believe it is a military vehicle - vs - civilian vehicle. The gas tank is original and is in perfect condition with no foreign matter, rust, trash or sludge in it. The inside of the tank looks clean enough to serve hamburgers off of it. All tires have decent and near equal tread and wear. The odometer mileage is what is stated but is no way an indication of actual mileage on vehicle. It was listed "as is" on the odometer as Ebay demands in these listings.I have installed an aftermarket electric fuel pump because the factory pump diaphragm failed. The factory fuel pump is still bolted to the engine and has just been routed around it. New battery, 12-volt converted system. This thing is fun to drive and it starts and runs solid at the touch of the ignition. There is minor leakage here and there from various gaskets at transmission/transfer case area although they seem to run out just fine. Locking hubs appear to be original to the vehicle. The only real problem I am aware of with this vehicle is the turn signals need some troubleshooting to make work correctly. I am a Toyota FJ40 Land Cruiser expert and not a CJ Jeep expert. I will try to answer any questions about the vehicle, but may not be as savvy as a regular Jeep guy would be. Thanks for looking at my item, and happy bidding. This is a cool Jeep anyone would be pleased to own and drive and it seems dependable enough that it should last still a long time.
