49 Willys pickup 2x4
I have decided to sell my 49 Willys pickup before winter arrives. This little
two wheel drive is quite rare and came from Arkansas fairly rust free. We
stripped everything down to the frame but did not take the cab off the frame
(didn't have to) and chassis savered the frame. All the mechanicals gone over,
new brakes, recored rad, relined gas tank, rebuilt carb and lots of new chrome
(front and rear bumper and hood spear ) All new glass from local glass shop and
all new rubber for all windows and seals. We pulled the engine (painted head
and block) and installed new rings and did lap job on valves. Purrs like a
kitten now !!! New clutch and pressure plate with throw out bearing at same
time. The king pins and front I beam are great and goes down the road straight
as a pin. Brand new 16 inch tires also. Real sharp, professional paint job a
couple months ago cost me almost $5000 alone. Professionally recovered original
seat also. New aftermarket gauges. We had to put some patches on both floors
but were only pin holes to start. Seam sealed patches also. There is very
little bondo on this truck !!!!!! There was no rot !!!! Floor start, Interior
is all original with the stock door panels, etc. New door handles I could go
on and on with all that has been done to this truck. Serious inquires only
please, as this is one sharp little truck. It has the three speed on the floor
(rare as most were on the column ) I have the original title but not back in my
name yet. This truck and bed
and side steps, etc, etc is totally rust free and should not be driven in the
winter months. It is THAT nice. It has not been out in the rain since I got it
done It's not perfect, but for someone that really wanted to take it to the
next level, you will not find a nicer 49 There is no e-brake hooked up and the
heater has been recored and works great, with new defrost hoses, etc.
Please, only serious buyers that really love willys pickups I don't have
internet where I live and have to go to the local library so calling is the best
way to reach me thanks Ps This truck could be converted to 4x4 simply by changing the tranny, case and front end
Price: $12000 or possibly best offer
