For sale is my 1955 Willys 4wd pickup. This truck is a former US Government fleet vehicle for the Department of the Interior Bureau of Reclamation (water) in Washington State, nd still bears the hand painted badging on the doors and numbering on the cab. I love Jeeps and Willys of all types, ndthe patina on this truck was my main reason for buying it. At this point I realize that I have too many things going and won't be able to take on this project. My loss, omeone else's opportunity. Overall the truck is very solid andcomplete. Fenders and hood are mocked up for some pictures, ut are not attached. They AND an extra set of front fenders will be secured in the bed for shipping. The rust on this 60yr old truck is mostly superficial, nd the cab is in better shape than any survivor I've seen. This truck does not run. The engine was replaced at some point with an inline Chevrolet 6 cylinder which is cracked; junk. A future diesel platform for you? Other than that, he drivetrain appears to be stock but in need of complete refresh along with everything else as it has been sitting for some time; the 1963 Washington plate on the front has a most recent tab of 1974. At some point, omeone started in with a can of sky blue paint on part of the truck, ut didn't get far; it can be removed.Rare to find authentic patina like this anymore, nd my thought is that the buyer is likely to save a lot of money on bodywork and paint on this vehicle; just clean it up and clearcoat it. Buy It Now has been lowered thousands for this re-listing. This will be the second and final listing for this truck on eBay as I have local interest. Worth every penny of the Buy It Now with meat still on the bone. Act quickly.
