Vehicle Detail
EXTREMELY RARE WALK IN METRO VAN-I HAVE NEVER SEEN ANOTHER ONE LIKE IT-IN FACT, I NEVER KNEW THAT WILLY'S MADE THIS TYPE OF TRUCK. THERE IS NO TITLE NOR ANY IDENTIFYING INFORMATION, I CAN ONLY GUESS THE YEAR TO BE LATE 50'S TO MID 60'S. LOTS OF RUST, SOME BROKEN GLASS, MISSING THE BACK DOORS, SIDE DOORS THERE BUT RUSTED BADLY, FRAME IS BADLY RUSTED. NO MOTOR,TRANS,WHEELS BUT THE ROOF IS IN PRETTY GOOD SHAPE WITH NO HOLES. THE TRUTH OF THE MATTER IS THAT THIS IS A RUSTY PIECE OF HISTORY WITH THE EXTERIOR IN PRETTY GOOD SHAPE. THE REALLY COOL PART IS THAT THE WHEELBASE IS 119" CENTER TO CENTER BY 57" WIDE TO AXEL BACK PLATE. LATE MODEL CHEV OR FORD 4X4 HAS APPROXIMATELY THE SAME DIMINSIONS. THE WHEEL OPENINGS ARE PRETTY WIDE OPEN SO IT CAN EASILY CHEAT AN INCH OR TWO EITHER WAY. I WANTED TO MAKE THIS SWITCH AND HAVE A ONE OF A KIND TRUCK THAT NO ONE HAS EVER SEEN BEFORE BUT HAVE NEITHER THE TIME NOR MONEY TO ACCOMPLISH THIS. I AM SURE SOMEONE HAS BOTH AND HAVE OFFERED THIS ON A "NO RESERVE" BASIS. KEEP IN MIND THAT THIS IS NOT A ROLLING ASSEMBLY AND MUST BE PLACED ON A TRAILER OR ROLL BACK TO BE MOVED. I HAVE ONLY BEEN ABLE TO GET A FEW OVERALL PICS BUT I THINK THEY SAY IT ALL. IT'S A PROJECT BUT IT'S WAY COOL AND DEFINETLY A ONE OF A KIND FIND. I HAVE LIMITED INFORMATION BUT CAN BE REACHED AT 717 329 8882 AND I WILL TELL YOU WHAT I KNOW.
