I believe it says 62k but I can't know the real miles on this vehicle..

People always ask about rust. Any rust it May have had must have been taken care of. It seems very solid.

U can knock hard on all the floors and I don't feel any give..... Im no expert tho. If u have questions lmk. Ill answer best i can

and this is all from my prospective and I again am no expert. it seems TO ME to be nice and clean and a good driver..

Has the original 2 speed rear end.


Orig Guages seem to all work.

Headlights work

tail lights work

stop lights work.


Gas tank looks new.

Crack on pss side windshield. Its at top of window and on passenger side and under exterior visor so not all that noticeable. In fact the glass all looks original as it lokks older has few scratches etc. I like the look as it looks more Authentic TO ME.....

Headliner looks new.

Interior good shape no rips.. and seems clean


has a police type spot light that is operable from the inside..and is powered by a toggle switch and it works...

I ended up with this car in a DEAL.. I am mostly in to jeeps and while this is very cool, I don't have a whole lot of use for it..

It is very seldom driven so i decided to sell. Sits 99% of the time.I start it weekly but never drive it.. so why keep paying reg etc...

In fact I Just re regd it. It has a Current CLEAN calif title in my name


This is a 79 yr old vehicle so I can't begin to know alll the history or any of the history for that matter rather than the last yr or so.... of this vehicle.. it may have things I am not aware of like old nuts and bolts that I don't know about or wear I can't or don't know of... it runs good.. drives good.. has imperfecitons you may or may not be able to see in pics... and seems to be....over all to ME looks good but that is my prospective. you may have completely different standards than me... I knock all over and don't feel give.. the paint looks older but is all one color and looks antique and really cool to me.. it seems to be a car someone used and drove it.. and didn't just stick in the garage and wipe with a diaper... but once again... that is all my prospective.. your standards could be different...


I am trying to give all the good AND BAD... but again.. I am very very far from any kind of expert.


Being sold as is where is... with CA Title.. only … you will have to reg where you are but I will give you the CA Title so s/b easy to do... the vin is stamped clearly on the frame...driver side next to the motor mount.. …


you will have to make a deposit within 24 hrs after winning bid.. 500 non refundable.. and please don't bid unless you want it... these adds are expensive...


Thank you and happy looking....


txt if you want or if you have questions.. I'll do my best to answer what I can.....
