Vehicle Description
1953 Willys (Overland) 1 Ton 4WD Jeep Pickup Truck - 283 V8 Engine
California Truck since New w/ California Commercial Black Plates
This nice original looking 1953 Willys 1 Ton 4WD Jeep Pickup has
been in California since it was built in 1953 according to the
California Title Documents that come with the truck. The truck
still retains the early 1960's California Commercial "Black
Plates". The engine on this Jeep truck was previously upgraded to a
mid 1960's Chevrolet 283 V8 with Power Pack Heads, Finned Aluminum
Valve Covers, 2 bbl Rochester Carburetor (just rebuilt), chrome air
cleaner and dual exhaust with Chrome Tips. This 4WD Pickup is still
equipped with a 3-Speed Manual Transmission mated with a High / Low
Transfer Case that gives a total of six forward speeds & two in
reverse. The front hubs were at some point upgraded to the Cutlas
Bulldog Locking Hubs that are currently on this Willys Truck. This
vintage Jeep Truck looks beautiful with recent paint, interior and
carpet. From the listing pictures, you will also see that the
truck's underside and chassis are in very good condition as to be
expected from a true Southern California vehicle. This Willys 1 Ton
Truck runs/drives well plus all exterior lights including the turn
signals and original gauges (Speedometer, Fuel, Amp & Temperature)
are working. An auxiliary Oil Pressure Gauge was previously added
to the left underside of the dash near the steering wheel. The
truck was recently serviced, checked out and is all ready to go!
