It’s got worn brakes and a fuel line leak.

“80% original. I purchased this in 2015 from the third owner as a possible restoration project but I don’t have the time or energy. Believed to have been in southern New Mexico for at least 40 years. 12 volt conversion. Clear title. Original flathead 134 engine. Seller indicated he had engine rebuilt and personally rebuilt both axles but couldn’t provide receipts. I put on about 20 miles in both 2WD and 4WD before parking it in July 2015 and it ran strong and tight. After bringing coolant up to sub-zero specs it’s been parked ever since. Transmission and transfer case shift smooth and tight with zero slop. Original tailgate and hood have embossed WILLYS i.d. Some Bondo patching is evident on body tub but extent is unknown. Tub has moderate rust perforation on underside bracing. All five tires hold air – wheels are non-OEM chrome. Marine-grade vinyl upholstery and top were added at some point – all in good condition (canopy top and bows are included). Also includes various spare parts that were purchased but never installed (seat belts, new starter, locking hubs). Not drivable due to leaking fuel line and worn brakes, and carb is gummed up after 2 years parked. Sold strictly as-is with no guarantees. Mileage unknown (mileage on odometer is incorrect).”
