Description for Jeep Other 1968

This vehicle is located in San Diego, A. This listing may be closed without notice since the vehicle is for sale locally on craigslist and other forums.
I bought this truck a couple years ago on craigslist. The original owner was a carpenter and passed away, o I thought it would be fun to restore his old truck. I finally finished this week! I thought I would end up keeping it, ut right now we have five cars and although I will probably regret this I need to sell it to free up some space (and so I can start restoring my Bronco!).
Jeep-Kaiser made around 33,000 of these in 67-69 for the military as a sort of modular chassis that could be used for different purposes. This one wound up in Cleveland National Forest as a forestry truck for a long time before being bought by the last owner. I have some of the old papers still.
It's a great, nique truck and I get compliments almost every time I take it out. It drives solid and is *not* a project truck. You will never see anyone else out on the road driving the same thing.
Some stats:Dana 60 front axleDana 70 rear axle5.87 gear ratio for great offroading37" Goodyear MT Tires, ilitary surplus from Hummer H1s (Only run about $100 each!)Chevy 350 V8 w/ Carter AFB carburetorTH400 automatic transmissionFour wheel drive (of course!)12v electrical upgradePower steering!Fiberglass cab top is removableDual fuel tanksFreshwater tank and pump onboardAftermarket toolbox bed similar to the M726 (hugely convenient)The bad:Rust in some areas, ee pics and video. It is minimal for a fifty year old truck but please see for yourself.Front tires have visible cracking, ut have held up fine on street and highway use all year. Rear tires are in great shape.Windshield has two or three star cracks about an inch in diameter. They don't interfere with driving.Freshwater pump does not work. Planned on replacing with $30 one from Amazon.Reverse lights are not wired up.Power steering line or pump has a slow leak. Fill it up once a month or so. This has kept the front end drivetrain oily and rust free! This truck marks its territory.The speedometer works, ut reads way higher than it should. It is original.I don't know if the fuel tank selector switch works. I only use the main fuel tank.The good:New silicone vacuum linesCarb was just rebuiltFluids have been changedNew spark plugsNew hard and soft brake linesNew wheel cylindersBrake drums just checked, leaned, nd lubedNew upgraded dual master cylinderNew steering wheel (cool old handmade one is included!)New water temp gaugeNew transfer case temp gaugeNew radiator, pgraded from stockNew 'AOOOGA' hornNew bench seat coverNew LED taillightsNew windshield wipersNew air filterNew tachometerNew stereo with aux input and speakersNew PCVsNew batteryAll body seams have been stripped and resealed with quality 3m sealerNew weatherstripping on all toolboxesCURRENTLY REGISTERED!!!
