IF YOU ARE INTERESTED IN A JEEP LIKE THIS--PLEASE READ ALL I HAVE TO SAY ABOUT IT BEFORE PLACING A BID. SERIOUS BIDDERS ONLY ----DO NOT TELL ME AFTER THAT YOU "CAN'T GET A LOAN OR YOUR WIFE SAYS NO".+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++THIS VEHICLE IS A FOUR CYLINDER WITH A THREE SPEED MANUAL TRANSMISSION AND IS A FOUR WHEEL DRIVE THE TITLE AND TAGS MATCH , AND I HAVE A GOOD CLEAR WISCONSIN TITLE IN MY NAME +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ I FOUND THIS VEHICLE FOR A FRIEND OF MINE THAT WAS LOOKING FOR ONE LIKE THIS YEARS AGO. HE WAS HAVING THE BODY WORK DONE AT A SHOP AS HE COULD AFFORD IT. WHEN I RAN INTO HIM YEARS LATER AND I ASKED HIM HOW IT WAS COMING ALONG---LONG STORY SHORT HE SAID HE GAVE UP ON IT. I THEN MADE THE DECISION TO BUY IT FROM HIM.++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ CAB & FRAME WERE UP IN THE BARN, THE DOORS, FENDERS AND TAILGATE WERE UP IN THE GARAGE ATTIC , AND THE BOX WAS SITTING OUTSIDE COVERED UP. I PUT IT BACK TOGETHER. I WAS NOT INVOLVED WITH ANY OF THE BODY WORK OR THE PAINTING OF IT. ALL RUST AREAS WERE REPAIRED USING SHEET METAL, BODY PUDDY, OR ETC. WHEREVER NEEDED. THIS IS NOT A NUMBER ONE RESTORATION JOB--BUT WILL SHOW GOOD AT YOUR LOCAL CAR SHOW OR A CRUISE NIGHT OR NICE FOR YOUR DAILY DRIVER.+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ LET ME TELL YOU ABOUT THE BOX. IT LOOKS GREAT ON THE OUTSIDE. THEY REPLACED THE FLOOR SO ITS NICE AND SOLID--BUT THEY DID NOT FINISH THE TOP INSIDE PANELS VERY WELL AS "SHOWN IN SOME OF THE PICTURES". I ASKED THE GUY THAT DID THE BODY WORK WHY AND HE JUST SIMPLY SAID "THAT IT WAS DONE ON A BUDGET , AS THE OWNER COULD AFFORD IT". I ASKED THE OWNER AND HE SAID THAT HIS PLAN WAS TO PUT SOME SORT OF CUSHIONS ON TOP OF THERE SO PEOPLE COULD SIT IN THE BOX WHILE DRIVING IT IN A PARADE. OTHER THAN THAT IT IS PRETTY DECENT. I DID NOT UNDERCOAT OR RHINO LINE ANYTHING UP TO HIDE ANY DEFECTS. THERE IS ONLY SOME 3M SOUND DEADNER UNDER THE WHEEL WELLS TO PREVENT STONE CHIPPING. ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ SOME OF THE GOOD THINGS:: NO BROKEN OR CRACKED GLASS; BUT ONE SMALL STONE CHIP IN THE PASSENGER DOOR WINDOW. IGNITION AND DOOR LOCKS HAVE MATCHING KEY-ALL WORKING ! ALL LIGHTS EXCEPT THE DOME LIGHT ARE WORKING AT THIS TIME. HEATER WORKS. CHECK OUT THE SEATS--THEY ARE REUPHOLSTERED. THIS ALONE COST ME OVER $500. EXCELLENT JOB DONE ON THEM AS YOU CAN SEE ! GAS GAUGE WAS WORKING, BUT IS NOT HOOKED UP NOW. THE HORN WORKS; BUT I MISPLACED THE LITTLE BRASS DISC UNDERNEATH THE BUTTON. I WILL KEEP LOOKING FOR IT. WIPERS WERE ORIGINALLY VACUUM, BUT SOMEONE HAS SINCE SWITCHED THEM TO ELECTRIC, SO THERE IS ONLY A TOGGLE SWITCH HOOKED UP TO TURN THEM ON AND OFF SO THEY ONLY HAVE ONE SPEED.++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ INSIDE UNDER SHOP LIGHT THE DOORS APPEAR TO HAVE A SLIGHT DIFFERENT SHADE OF GRAY. OUTSIDE IN THE SUNLIGHT I CAN'T NOTICE IT AS MUCH. I WAS TOLD BY THE GUY THAT DID THE BODY WORK THAT THIS IS WHAT HAPPENS WHEN YOU "PANEL PAINT AT DIFFERENT TIMES".+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ I WAS TOLD THAT THE 18,873 WAS ORIGINAL MILEAGE ON THIS VEHICLE; BUT I HAVE NO WAY TO VERIFY THIS. THIS VEHICLE HAS SAT FOR A LONG TIME. IT HAS NEWER BRAKES, INSTALLED SHOES, SOME WHEEL CYLINDERS, MASTER CYLINDER, HOSES AND LINES. ALL FLUIDS HAVE BEEN CHANGED (I.E. FRONT AND REAR DIFFERENTIALS, TRANSMISSION AND TRANSFER CASE AND ENGINE OIL). ALSO HAS ALL NEW ANTIFREEZE. THE PREVIOUS OWNER HAD THE RADIATOR RECORED. HE SHOWED ME THE RECEIPT AND IT WAS ALMOST $700.00. I TUNED IT UP--PUTTING IN NEW POINTS AND CONDENSER, SPARK PLUGS, CAP AND ROTOR. ENGINE SEEMS TO RUN GREAT--NO SMOKE. ONE THING I KNOW IT WILL NEED IS THE TOE ALIGNMENT SET. I PUT NEW STEERING TIE ROD ENDS IN AND ONLY DID A MEASUREMENT ON THE FLOOR. I HAVE ONLY TESTED THIS VEHICLE BY DRIVING IT UP AND DOWN MY COUNTRY ROAD. I WOULD NOT INTEND ON PURCHASING IT AND DRIVING IT ACROSS COUNTRY. I ALSO PUT IN A NEW BATTERY AND IT CHARGES GOOD. ALSO ADDED AFTER MARKET ORIGINAL REPRODUCTION TAIL LIGHTS.++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ I COVERED A LOT OF THINGS AND I AM NOT GOING TO GO THROUGH EVERYTHING THAT I HAVE DONE TO THIS VEHICLE. I HAVE TAKEN IT AS FAR AS I AM GOING TO GO WITH IT. IT IS A GREAT START TO SOMEWHAT OF A RARE VEHICLE. WITH A FRONT END ALIGNMENT AND SOME MINOR DETAILING THIS WILL BE ROAD READY , AND READY FOR SOME CRUISING. FOUR WHEEL DRIVE WORKS AND HAS VINTAGE LOCK OUT HUBS. TIRES ARE OLDER NON-DIRECTIONAL 16". LOOKS COOL, BUT MAY NOT BE THE GREATEST FOR HIGHWAY DRIVING.++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ I TRIED TO KEEP IT ORIGINAL AS POSSIBLE. SOME VERY HARD TO FIND ITEMS ARE ON THIS VEHICLE AS YOU CAN SEE IF YOUR FAMILIAR WITH THIS TYPE OF JEEP. EXPECT SOME CHIPS, AND SCRATCHES IN THE PAINT FROM STORAGE , PEOPLE HANDLING IT , ETC. I WILL BE INCLUDING A PORTION OF THE ORIGINAL RED AND GRAY PAINT FOR TOUCH UP PURPOSES. I HAVE TRIED TO THE BEST OF MY ABILITY TO BE AS HONEST AS POSSIBLE WITH MY REPRESENTATION OF THIS VEHICLE.++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ I INVITE ANYONE TO COME AND CHECK THE VEHICLE OVER BEFORE BIDDING. I KNOW THAT IT IS NOT ALWAYS POSSIBLE, ESPECIALLY IF YOUR OUT OF STATE. I ENCOURAGE YOU TO CALL ME WITH ANY QUESTIONS YOU MAY HAVE REGARDING THIS JEEP AT 920-905-4096 (BILL) I DO HAVE A GOOD CLEAN WISCONSIN TITLE IN MY NAME.+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ AGAIN--I CAN'T STRESS THIS ENOUGH--SERIOUS BIDDERS ONLY ! I WANT YOU TO REVIEW ALL THE PICTURES CAREFULLY---READ AND REREAD MY DESCRIPTIONS CAREFULLY. I AM NOT REPRESENTING THIS AS A MUSEUM QUALITY RESTORATION , AS I PREVIOUSLY STATED IT WAS DONE ON A BUDGET. I REQUEST THAT IF YOU WANT TO BID THAT YOU HAVE A FEEDBACK OF AT LEAST 10. ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ I DO HAVE A RESERVE ON IT AND IT IS LOW. IT REPRESENTS WHAT I HAVE INVESTED IN IT , IN ACTUAL CASH VALUE. NO LABOR IS INCLUDED IN THAT FIGURE OR WHAT I HAVE ADDED FROM MY OWN PERSONAL PARTS. I RESERVE THE RIGHT TO END THIS AUCTION EARLY AS I ALSO HAVE IT FOR SALE LOCALLY. A NON-REFUNDABLE DOWN PAYMENT OF $1000.00 MUST BE PAID BY THE WINNING BIDDER WITHIN 24 HOURS AFTER THE AUCTION ENDS VIA PAY-PAL. BALANCE MUST BE PAID ON OR BEFORE THE VEHICLE IS PICKED UP...WITHIN 7 DAYS OF END OF AUCTION , UNLESS PRIOR ARRANGEMENTS HAVE BEEN MADE.
