1978 Jeep Other

Here ladies and gents I have a 1978 jeep j10 project truck. It has been used as a yard truck. This thing is definitely not perfect but it runs, drives, and stops. It tends to stall in cold weather. It is a 3 speed on the floor with an inline 6 cylinder engine. 4x4 works amazing, has locking hubs, once activated you will not get stuck, unlike modern trucks this thing has all wheels spinning at all times instead of doing one wheel peels. Drives in deep snow like no other truck I've ever owned. It is the perfect winter project! CLEAN TITLE in hand ready to sign over to the highest bidder. You're probably wondering what kind of bed it is...well, when I got the truck it had a crummy looking wood flatbed so I decided to tear it down and install this bed. The bed is actually an old school military single axle trailer that I chopped down and shortened to fit the truck. You can see in one of the pictures where it has been welded. I'd say it looks sharper than a stock bed but hey, that's just me. It has no tail lights and front lights are brand new but one of them is dim, not sure why and I don't plan on getting into it. The battery is about 5 months old. Fuel tank is the metal gas can you see attached to the bed, it doesn't really have a stationary spot, it is strapped to the bed and holds real well. The ebrake doesn't work but the brakes brakes work great! Just did brake lines about 3 months ago. Frame is solid!! Now the bad: cab corners are rotted and the rocker panels are pretty bad too, I have brand new rocker panels that will be included in the sale of the truck. I also have a brand new water pump that will be included as well (not that it needs it but I have one laying around). If I were to keep it and drive it I'd say bigger tires are a must to fulfill the huge wheel wells in the back, this thing would make a nice rock crawler. Anyway, if there are any further questions please contact me. Happy bidding!
