“This 1947 Willys Jeep Truck is a first-year example that was acquired by the seller in 2016 and subsequently refurbished at The Jeep Farm in Waddell, Arizona. The exterior was refinished in Bedford Grey with Challenger Blue accents, and the interior was reupholstered in Pendleton blanket fabric and blue vinyl. The 2.2L Go-Devil inline-four was resealed, and sends power to all four wheels via a three-speed manual transmission and a Spicer transfer case. Work in 2020 included a carburetor service, wiring repairs, coolant flush and some paint work. Approximately 2,350 four-wheel drive Willys Jeep Trucks were made in 1947 and this example is now offered with records, a reprinted owner’s manual, and a clean Arizona title in the name of the seller’s LLC….”
What does everybody think this truck will go for ?
I have no idea. I haven’t followed BAT auctions very often, so I’m not sure how they usually turn out in terms of pricing.
Like any other auction it will be “who knows?” I had a friend sell her 1964 Plymouth Valiant Convertible that I worked on. She was hoping for about 16K. I told her to expect 12k which was spot on. https://bringatrailer.com/listing/1963-plymouth-valiant-3/
