-Chrome Hubcaps w/ Good Year Whitewall Tires
-Split Bench Seat with Rear Access for Rear Seat (Seats 6)
-Full Factory Soft Top
-Original Jeep AM Radio The body on this Jeep is in great condition overall. The paint on the Jeep has held up well since restoration and looks amazing in Fairway Green. The body on the jeep is all steel and is very straight. All glass is original on the truck and in great shape. The full soft top is excellent and the plastic windows look like new. All chrome and emblems looks factory fresh. The interior is in great shape all around. The original seats have been recovered in fresh tan velour and are all in great condition with no tares or rips of any kind and no signs of wear. The dash is crack free and in nice shape with all correct gauges in place and everything functioning as it should. The dual adjustable spot lights are a nice touch! It also has the functional interior heater and AM radio installed. Mechanically, this little Willys runs GREAT! The jeep starts right up and blows no smoke or has an hesitation. The Buick Dauntless V6 moves this Jeep around with ease and is actually quite peppy, and engine was rebuilt around 30k miles ago when its was swapped into this chassis during full resto. .this thing just runs to sweet!The Jeep is very tight and the cooling system keeps the motor cool even in the Arizona heat.
