Used to be an old Brush Fire truck for a small fire department in a little town in Ohio. Bought from an auction site, they had kept it in the firehouse since it was bought. It was used to cruise the town and once it became an older car it was parked and only ran once a year for the parade in the town. When it was bought, the whole town came to say goodbye to it as it left for California. Because it was in Ohio for most of its life it has rust where you would expect it to be on this year of the jeep. If you want pictures of the underbelly of the jeep and where the rust is just give me a text or I can facetime you.”
