“1946 willys jeep that was one time used as a sand dragster, (wild oats). I bought it as a project with a blown motor and trans. No rust, fiberglass tub and boxed frame. I rebuilt the SBC engine and trans for street use. Zero miles since done. Added all street legal requirements, head lights, tail, turn, stop, high beams, horn, windshield and wiper. Has brand new mud terrain tires and wheels. I added 4.88 gears and a powerloc to the front diff. The rear is a dana 44 with a spool. Chp would not allow me to license for street use. It is licensed for off road use. I do have current registration and pink slip. Come and get it for this season in the dunes.”
Seems like a good deal.
Would love to hear the story/reasoning for not being able to license for street.
Jim, agreed.
I saw the seller commenting on another Jeep for sale in socal on Facebook about a month ago. If I remember correctly he was very much interested if the other Jeep had vin plates. It sounded like the CHP was giving him a hard time for not having them and a bill of sale from Idaho?
Thanks for the update Tyler. Good to know …
Not much use in California without being street legal, they are closing all the dunes
