UPDATE: **Status Unknown** Was $5500.
(08/13/2016) Dan spotted this truck named “Mona”.
“With a very sad heart I am putting up for sale my 60 willys pickup, “Mona”. I have to many projects and to much credit card debt so I am letting her go. I did a frame off restoration on Mona in 2009. At the time I replaced every thing to original shape accept the seats and pedals. It has ford hydraulics in it so it has dual reservoir brakes. all gauges work but at the time the original fuel and temp are disconnected for after market gauges. At the time of the restoration I only did a minor engine rebuild, rings, cylinders, lapped valves and new seals and gaskets. So for the past 7 years I have driven her on weekends and plowed my drive way in the winter, took trips to the hills or dump. I have put about 3500 miles on it.
She starts and runs every day rain or shine, hot or cold. It does leak as every willys does so you have to watch the oil. The paint has faded, it has surface rust on the frame, springs and a few spots on the body but this is one of the straightest and cleanest willys pickups your will find. It also has a dual gas tank control and I have an extra tank for it to install. The tank in it is a new plastic willys tank. This is a very tough decision for me to let go so if you are thinking i am going to drop the price and wheel and deal, don’t waist your time. I am an avid willys owner and I know what the value of this truck is and it is more than I am asking.”
Easily worth it.
If I didn’t buy a ’52 M38A1 I would buy this truck! I hope she goes to a good home and remain running for another 30 years!
Is this still available
Hi Kim,
It looks like this one sold. I’ve updated the post. I just checked Craigslist and I don’t see any trucks listed on Craigslist in the Idaho/Montana area at the moment.
