This is an amazing barn find! 1968 Jeep Wagoneer with only 65,000 original miles. This car has been stored since 1985 and hasn't seen sunlight until last week. The person who has owned this jeep was a mechanic his whole life and maintained it along the way. The car has no rust on the body! What looks like dirt on the car is mostly mold that wipes off with no effort. I have not cleaned the car, this is the way it came out of storage. Everything works like the day it was put away. And, ready for this? IT RUNS!!! hooked up a charger pack and put some gas in it and off she went. check out the Marvel Mystery oil injector! The vinyl is still flexible on the seats.A true survivor. I did not clean the jeep as I wanted whomever bought it to have the option of leaving it alone or cleaning it. Only problem that I had was the left front drum was frozen to the shoes and i had to torch it off. No damage was done and the brake shoes were brand new. Just needs a drum. The owner says he has a new exhaust system for it but I can't guarantee that he does. The gas is still in the tank and would have to be flushed. Feel free to ask questions, I can send detailed pictures if requested. I reserve the right to end the auction early. A $500.00 deposit is due within 48hours of the close of the auction.
