Vehicle Detail

Older restoration which has held up perfectly. This Willys is a daily driver, it's reliable and fun to drive. Multiple show winner, it draws a lot of attention. The Willys has a single rear door usually found on Panel Wagons, and has 2 rear benches (running the length of the wagon). Front seats are not original to the Jeep but are clean, comfortable and have lap belts. All gauges works, all glass is original to the truck, is clean and crack free. Clean, black carpet throughout. Heater, wiper, and all lights work perfectly. All door and window seals were replaced when the car was stripped and repainted. I have yet to see filler on it, even after looking at it on a lift. No rust, this is a rust free vehicle. Hard to find a Willys without bondo or rust, or both!Solid frame, which was reinforced for the current drivetrain. The drivetrain was extensively restored and upgraded. The engine is a small block Buick V8. The water pump and cooling hoses were replaced earlier this year. Transmission (Standard T90 3 speed) and transfer case (T18) were rebuilt and resealed. Both seem to be original to the Willys and work perfectly. A new clutch was installed when the trans and transmission were rebuilt. Rear wheel cylinders are recent, the Willys stop well and doesn't pull when stopping. Tires are a year old. Plenty of tread left on them (80%) I love the Willys, but I also own an older Land Rover and can't keep both. It is a fun, reliable classique Jeep. If you're looking to use it on a farm: the 4WD makes it easy to use off-road. If you're looking for a reliable classic car to drive around town, this Willys will get to 55 mph easily and hold it all day long. The Buick engine has a nice rumble from the exhaust and is peppy without being too powerful for the drivetrain. All around, an excellent jeep with no dings, scratches, mechanical issues, etc... Clean title ready to be signed over. Ask any question you may have, I make a point of answering Ebay questions quickly.On Sep-22-14 at 05:33:39 PDT, seller added the following information: I'm looking for the any of the following cars (since a lot of people are asking about trades)1963 Ford Galaxie Fastback 1965-1968 Mustang Fastback (can be in project but complete condition) Early model Porsche 911 Reserve is less than $9,000, the Willys is worth every bit of it.
