1953 WILLYS Jeep

Vehicle Overview

Oddfire 225 Buick V6, Holley 2300 350cfm 2 barrel, T98 trans, warn overdrive, detroit locker & full float conversion rear axle. GM power steering, dual fuel tanks, 11 inch brakes, rancho 2.5 inch lift springs. Complete rebuild/restoration project first time in early 1980s, drove it for 10 years, tore it all back apart again in mid 90's, got ¾ the way through it & lost interest in it for 20 years. Few years ago got tired of the baddest jeep in town sitting in the back of my barn rusting, been getting it back in shape again. Used to live in north california. Grew up around hot rod jeeps & learned how to drive driving dad's jeep on the rubicon trail. Had this one on the trail twice, now it's my sportscar for the forest/hunting rig, car show/town cruiser, take it home & use it like a tractor in the backyard. This site doesnt like the size of some of the older pictures I'm trying to load
