MB 458839

This non-running jeep was purchased about twenty years ago as a parts supply for another running jeep, and has been stored in a barn since. I don't know when this jeep last ran. Not having had too many parts stripped off of it, it appears very rebuildable, and I plan on tearing it down for a thorough rebuild starting within the next year, as soon as I finish some cosmetic upgrade work on its "sister" (MB434784). I've not yet sanded the hood to check for numbers.
