The body interior is supposed to be rough, but I’ve seen much worse.
“LOOKING FOR SOMEONE SPECIFICALLY WANTING A 1948. IF YOU’RE JUST WANTING AN OLD FLAT-FENDER, YOU MIGHT AS WELL BUY A NEW BUCKET AND PUT IT ON A MORE MODERN DRIVETRAIN AND FRAME.
THIS JEEP HAS SUFFERED THROUGH ALL ITS YEARS IN THE OREGON RAIN AND USED MOSTLY FOR HUNTING AND SOME RANCH CHORES. THE FLOOR PANS ARE RUSTED THRU AND ANY PLACE THAT HELD WATER CONSISTANTLY.
IT IS FULLY 6V AND IT DID RUN WHEN I BOUGHT IT IN 08…….BUT IT DID NOT STOP! NO BRAKES WHAT-SO-EVER. PREVIOUS OWNER DROVE IT ALL OVER THE HILLS ON COMPRESSION ONLY.
THE WINDSHIELD DID NOT COME FROM THE FACTORY AS THE REST. ITS BEEN SWITCHED TO A ONE-PIECE WHICH IS STILL IN GOOD CONDITION.
THE RADIATOR IS A LITTLE DAMP AT THE BOTTOM BUT DOES NOT SEEM TO LEAK.
WHEELS ARE STOCK WITH OLD BIAS-PLY TIRES THAT STILL HOLD AIR.
I HAVE REMOVED EVERYTHING THAT IS BOLTED ON AND REMOVED THE DASH COMPONENTS AND STEERING WHEEL AND THE BODY IS READY TO LIFT OFF.
REASON FOR SELLING AS I HAVE TOO MANY PROJECTS AND I HAVE ANOTHER 48 THAT I NEED TO GET GOING ON. AGE IS CATCHING UP WITH ME.
HERE ARE COUPLE PIC’S OF ENGINE COMPARTMENT AND THE OUTSIDE. THE WHITE TOP IS NO LONGER WITH IT. THE PIC. OF ME IN IT IS WHEN I DROVE IT AROUND THE BLOCK THE DAY I BOUGHT IT. BODY DOESN’T LOOK LIKE ITS EVER BEEN DAMAGE FROM ANY COLLISION OR ROLL-OVER.”
