Vehicle Details
Vehicle is equipped with the tropical roof with vents, fairey overdrive, fairey locking front hubs, 19 gallon fuel tank, adjustable driver seat, folding second row seats, sliding windows, windscreen ventilators, oil bath cleaner.
I purchased this vehicle as a project in June of 2015 and began a multi year process of restoring the vehicle from the frame up. I completely disassembled the vehicle down to the frame. The vehicle was finally assembled and roadworthy as of May 2023. I have since put approximately 700 miles on the truck.
I attempted to keep the vehicle as original as possible. I have receipts for approximately $32k in parts and some labor. I have hundreds of hours of my own time into the project which I have thoroughly enjoyed. I have other projects and not enough space so I’ve decided to sell this truck.
I’ve used stainless steel hardware throughout and grade 8 hardware on the frame/engine. New exhaust was installed prior to my ownership.
The body, roof and wheels, were completely disassembled and sandblasted to bare metal then powder coated pastel green (RAL 6021) and the roof and wheels were powder coated oyster white (RAL 1013). The interior parts were powder coated black. The work was done by Miller Powder Coating.
The frame was coated in a protective coating prior to my ownership. The driver side rear tub shows minimal exterior damage, which occurred prior to my ownership and was left as is.
The truck will easily drive 65+MPH on the freeway, however I find it best under 60 MPH. She gets lots of attention wherever she goes. All of the oils have been changed.
