GPW 65578

This truck has been completely gone through from the frame up. Frame sandblasted, repaired and rust protected. NOS (1950s) engine; rebuilt axles (ring/pinion, bearings, yokes, u-joints all around); Trans and Transfer case overhauled, bearings, seals and yokes; NOS radiator, voltage reg, starter, generator; repop tub sandblasted and POR-15 on every inch; every small part sandblasted, repaired and painted. Unfortunately, not too many "F" bolts remaining - most were too far gone. Many other "F" marked parts scattered throughout, including nice pintle hook, trans, radiator, transfer case, bell housing and axles among others. Although not entirely an "original" restoration due to the presence of some repop parts and non-matching numbers due to ancient gov't overhauls, this jeep runs very well.
