UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $55,000.
(03/10/2010) “This rare find — a completely handmade, completely stainless steel Jeep — was commissioned in the Philippines in 1981 and custom built by then-President Ferdinand Marcos. It was later purchased by a well-known national television news correspondent, who then had this one of a kind Jeep shipped back to Los Angeles. It has never been driven. With less than 10 miles on the odometer, this classic style “Eisenhower” Jeep is a vintage car collector’s dream. The exterior is like new; it’s been protected in a fully-covered, temperature-controlled garage since its trip to the United States. To our knowledge this is the only Jeep of its kind in the U.S. The brushed-exterior is in supreme condition. The engine is a rebuilt 1953 Willy’s V-8 that needs only minor service. Complete vehicle sold as is.”
What does a 1953 Willys V-8 look like? Looks like and olds motor to me.
$60,000 starting bid????
oops .. I missed the ‘Willys V8’ comment. Yeah, I can’t quite tell what the motor is. They want more for this than the seller of the Reagan M-38A1 wants for that jeep (only $50k) — I don’t think so….
Wow $60,000 if he sells it I going to start SS production of my own!!!
I LIKE THE PART WERE IT SAYS ” NEVER BEEN DRIVEN ” ID LIKE TO MEET THE GUY OR GAL THAT PUSHED THIS JEEP TO PUT 10 MLES ON THE OD . THAT IS INLESS THERE IS A HIDDEN STAINLESS TOW BAR SOME WERE I MISSED……
Troy … good point .. 10 miles is a LOT of downhill coasting 🙂 … you know, I don’t want to jump to any conclusions (guess I will anyway), but if I had a vehicle that had never been driven and I had stored in a temp controlled storage facility, I’m not sure parking it (or pushing it) under a palm tree in the dirt would be something I would do ….
i have some ocean front property in arizona ( rare find ) for sell.
ho….. many… jeeps for sale 6 or more….
Just in time for Christmas, the ONLY stainless steel Willys in the US of A. Not only that, but it was made by Ferdinand Marcos hisself. Wasn’t Ferdinand a bull? Sounds like there’s lots of bull in this deal.
