Description for Jeep gpw jeep 1942

This jeep is a real original 1942 gpw ford military tub hood and fenders On a civilian cj3a and running gear (its regd as a 1950 cj3a b/c that's what the frame is and that is how calif has to reg it)..... I just regd it. It is fully street legal but just like the original its not a freeway veh.
It has a brand new EV ..... ELECTRIC Motor.
And 8 brand new deep cycle duracel 12v batterys equaling 96volts.

The motor puts out 77hs power.
The Orig motor only had 60hs power.
It Runs great. It'll do about 35 but i will say.... And it doesnt like long steep hills but It can be tweaked to do higher rpms or have higher torque. I just started messing with that but im slow at it because of a condition with my hands.

It actually has slat grill jeep SEATS... those are worth over 1000 by themselves...

It Wheels good and does great on flat ground. I have a wheelin test hill at my house.... extreme hills use lower gears and it does good but u use them all..... It'll do it but u have to Know your gears to get the most out of it. It takes a little getting used to. ive had it going for about a month... driven it 3 or 4 times extensively now... still dialing it in... but its doing well as it is...
It is really awesome

I have a golf cart charger that goes with it. I've been charging it with 2 regular car battery chargers...

Unlike other ev jeeps like this (there are of course only a couple out there) this one has all 8 drive batterys under the hood. Most others have the batterys in the cargo area.
It has a water cooled (new tech model) ev engine and kelly controller. Its 96v. Has 8 deep cycle 8 drive batterys. 1 extra battery is for water pump air fan and lights.
Ive got about 2500 in motor alone on this...
Has orig military look but new green (od green 2 lol) energy technology.
any questions ......tx.t.....916....208.....0727...... and i'm happy to answer them..
The only deal I will make ...... if you don't want the motor and batterys.... I will sell the jeep without the motor/controller/contactor/batterys/and iginition pot (which is used as an accelerator).. CONTACT ME and we can talk about that... otherwise the add is for everything .... on winning bid...
