UPDATE: Gayland relayed that Bob says he is willing to ship some items, but it does take him some time to get to the shipper. He does have some MB items also.
Originally published April 17: Gayland sent me the following. Note that Bob does not want to ship. He’s an old school guy (who even sold Desert Dogs at one point) who would rather deal in person.
Bob Brant of 820 Jeep is trying to sell off a bunch of his stock. The state is going to expand the freeway and intersection that his place is located upon and he wants to sell his land and shop and move elsewhere.
He has ALL kinds of parts laying around, I saw a grille guard I think belongs to a M715. I haven’t seen any MB parts, but that is no indication he doesn’t have any. CJ2a’s, 3a’s. 5’s, bodies, frames and parts sitting around around (he is not super organized) He has a Deuce-and a-Half with trailer for sale, I am not sure of the M number. I found a M416 axle in his parts pile and a CJ5 windshield frame.
So, if anyone in the Fort Worth Dallas area is looking for parts, I would say call him or text him and find out. He prefers dealing locally because it is a pain for him to get things shipped. Call or text him at (817) 235 7270.
As a disclaimer, I have no interest in the business other than to help a fellow Seabee and Jeeper (who is also my mechanic.)
