Don't you hate it when you're at an auction and just cant seem to put your arm down to stop bidding on a beautiful old school Willys Jeep pickup? Man, I hate it when that happens...
I've owned a lot of Willys in my life, a lot (like 25-30 civilian and military) never had one like this, this truck is special, it was loved. I think this truck is amazing, preserved in an original patina.
I tracked down the previous owner and learning about him confirmed a lot of what I saw with the high quality work that had been done to this truck in the past. This truck belonged to the same family, since new, for 70 years. The previous owner (Rick, 74 yrs old) an engineer, grew up hunting and fishing with his uncle who taught him to drive in this truck. The uncle passed away in the 1960s and this truck was parked in a field providing shelter for multiple generations of wild life. Rick tracked the truck down years later and trailered it to Salt Lake City where he proceeded to rebuild and replace whatever was needed mechanically.
Later he moved to Durango CO and I admired this truck for more than a decade whenever I drove by. In the last 2 years it was donated (not running) to a charity and somehow ended up in New Mexico at a dealer auction. At that time, though it didn't run, bidders (car dealers) made sure I almost could not buy it, they didn't know what it was, but they knew it was "something special."
Hand built (torch and stick weld) bumpers, an amazingly straight original body, bed, cab, hood, grill, front fenders etc. Surface rust only, frame and running gear have no rot at all (see pictures underneath) glass is great, all gauges work and light up at night, has been rewired, blinkers, everything works as it should. Starts right up, no smoke, quiet, shifts, drives, stops excellent in every way, per 1952 standards.
The miles are correct and original, this engine should have non ethanol fuel only with a lead additive at all times.
Lots of new parts, poly fuel tank, fuel pump, tires, exhaust, carb, battery, shocks, wiring harness, everywhere you look you see shiny new pieces, parts, nuts, bolts, gaskets etc. There are some spare parts,manuals, new glove boxes with doors, cables, etc.
I have over 500 pics and this Jeep is parked proudly in my driveway so please ask questions and I will answer them as candidly as possible.
There are a few dents on the leading edge of the rear pass fender and a couple on the passenger cab corner. There a a few (very few) dings in the bed, inside. The bumpers are welded on, seems like I remember a rumor about some weird old Colorado law about that, about bumpers must be welded??? There are a couple little rust holes in the floorboards but the floors are rock solid. There welded repairs where the hood attaches to the hood hinges. Over all this rig is amazing, most of the so called "flaws" are character on something this old and unrestored...
Please call me, I'm a good guy, 54 yrs old, jeans, boots, single Dad with 2 kids, self employed, work for a living, I won't B.S. you or waste your time.
