I have reluctantly decided to sell my toy to finance my hotrod build. 1951 Willys M38, This is a old Socal build. I bought this with the intentions of painting it and making it purty. However I fell in love with its 60's metallic gold color and imperfect nature. California assigned VIN, unknown mileage, with a early 80's 4 bolt main 350 chevy with late 60's camel hump heads. cast iron intake with a holley 4BBl. new HEI ignition, corvette radiator and corvette Harrison tank. rebuilt T-18 trans with Dana 18 Transfercase and Warn Overdrive. New clutch, flywheel, Ramshorn manifolds, with brand new Dual exhaust with Magnaflow mufflers. (SOUNDS GREAT). Stock axles with 5:38 gears. NOS warn locking hubs, new bearings, new tie rod ends. Very nice Power steering conversion. New Lecarra steering wheel on a old tilt column. Has oversized M38 gas tank, Stock seats (could use new covers). Hella H4 conversion head lights, LED tail lights, Mismatch VDO and SW gauges. Just installed a NEW Rancho 2.5" lift with 1/2" warrior shackles and New Rancho Shocks. Very nice wiring with sealed junction boxes and HD battery cables. Has 4 decent 33x12.50x15 Yokohama MT tires and a BFG spare. ALSO has 5 Eagle 589 wheels with Champion beadlocks (these are REAL beadlocks). Roll Cage with a Custom made bikini top. (no full top, but they are still avail via bestop) This is one awesome Willys. Licensed and insured, I drive it very often. It has a trainload of power. Will EASILY smoke the 33" tires, Will definitely get your attention if you put your foot in it. Cruises very nice, NOT a highway vehicle, the 5:38s to much for highway speeds, but will cruise back road and run 55 fine. This is NOT a vehicle for a teenage driver. Hunt, Fish, cruise, do smokey burnouts..... she has it all! The body is mostly rust free, I know there is a screed coat of filler over body. Albeit not rusty, just the way they did custom paint back in the day. There is a hole in the tool box (under pass seat), where the top hat is underneath. I am sure there is some more here and there under that gold paint, BUT that paint has been there for a while. It has a CJ2A hood, however I do have the M38 hood that was modified for a poke through air cleaner (its garbage basically) original tailgate and tub. VERY nice custom made rear bumper with swing out tire carrier, and a front tow bar. The firewall was modified to fit the GM distributor. Upper edge was pinch welded and done in the 60's. I do restore Jeeps for a living and this one is one of my favorites. I REALLY wanted to keep it, but I need to finance my 48 Jeepster build. Ahh the reality that I can not keep them all..... Shipping is up to the buyer, I will deliver the jeep to any car transport company in the Phoenix valley on my trailer at no charge to the buyer. There is NO WARRANTY, this is a 64 year old vehicle. I do require a 250.00 deposit within 24 hrs of auction close. Full payment is due within 72 hrs. I will ONLY accept Paypal for the deposit. The remainder of the money is due via Certified Bank Check, Money Order, or direct deposit into my Wells Fargo Account. This is a "transfer Account" open for this reason. I have had many customers do this, and its painless and quick and trackable, the money usually clears usually within 24 hrs. Once the money clears I will fed-ex a clear, clean and open Arizona title to you. The jeep does not leave my possession until the money clears. You are free to either pick-up or arrange shipping to pick up. If for any reason you want me to "sit" on the jeep for pickup, you need pre-approval before auction close. I have shipped many Jeeps and have a shipper I can refer to you that usually picks up within 3 days. DISCLAIMER: I have one single bad feed back from a gentleman that had buyers remorse because he did not know what a "old" jeep is. Old jeep are like old dogs, Loyal, Fun, sometimes fussy, and always your best buddy. This Jeep does drip oil, could still use some tinkering (however I like it the way it is) drives like a cheetah on cocaine, Its loud, hot and sooooo AWESOME!!!! please look at my website to view my past projects. My contact info is also on there www.thejeepfarm.com bid with confidence, good luck
