A friend of mine took me out to this guys house yesterday and I made arrangements to buy this for $150. The guy tells me it only had 10k on the original F-head 4 when he parked it. I almost crapped myself when I saw the barn doors.

Nice find! Cant wait to see more pictures of it after you drag it out of the brush.

I sold the wife on the 4cyl.... GAS SAVER,:thumbsup: LOL!!!!!:drivin:

Awesome find! You AZ boys got it made. If that were in my neck of the woods, you might be able to see the roof, the rest would be a pile 'o rust. Good luck!

That's what I was thinking..lol.

Nice find!

When you get sick of the oven, come up the hill and you can see them.

I'm jealous:p . I have a nice set of front doors for that if you needs 'em.

I have a line on a pair here. The hard part will be getting it out of the tree and ruts its in.

Jeff,
Barn doors out back be sort of rare.
You got some pic's of the side wheel wells and windows?

[red mistress]

I see side glass and rear glass wonder if it was a Parkway conversion?

[Sambo]

i thought the barndoor thing was a "traveler" package?
which would make it very rare:eek:

[jaber]

It has a lot stuff around it on one side and a tree on the other. Heres a pic from inside.

Search for posts by willysworker. Guy up in spokane. Might even PM him asking for info?

Get that thing out of the dirt and see how bad the rust is.

Jaberman - you need to add it to your sig. Nice Find! :thumbsup:

I was waiting on the details. I wont have it home for a couple of weeks.

[yoslvr442]

[jaber]

TAD, did you see the interior pic? Which model do you think it is? I cant get any details from the web yet. Cant find anything that says....

[jaber]

OK, its home and I got better pics. I clean it out and the floor is in surprisingly good shape.

Seeing that it is a 2x4, and theres a hole in the side of the original block, I'm going to put it onto a wagoneer frame and find a newer drive train for it. The wife wants A/C in it.

[waynestiles]

GREAT find, I suspect those rear quarter windows are pretty significant

Just on the slim chance that you are unfamiliar with it; there is a whole parallel universe of willy's wonks at

its a lot like our FSJ group but a bit more divided between resto-purists and resto-rodders and not as much hard core off-road crowd. GREAT souces of historical info, parts and ideas. We have a few crossover members here from there---AIRC--Tonka and Mathman

I used to spend a lot of time on there when I still had big hopes and dreams for my 51 pickup (and got bit by the FSJ bug)

[jaber]

Cool, thanks for the link. I'll be checking it out.

[Gambler68]

very cool and nice score with the round rear wells. I think a waggy frame under it would be great. Slap in a narrow aluminum radiator and rock it :D

I've passed up a couple of those (they are VERY common around here) , nice to see someone nab one.

[Zorm]

WOW!! that cleaned up and on a waggy or 2 door chero frame would be awsome!!!:thumbsup: :thumbsup:

[JPSwapMohn]

ALways liked the Willy's wagons. I really like that wrap around bumper. Is that common on those rigs?
