Shipping I can deliver to Northern Illinois and Southern Wisconsin. Otherwise I am willing to ship at buyer’s cost.
Please contact me for more pictures if you are interested. This is a great jeep, it was built right by professionals. The engine was balanced and blue printed, how ever the paperwork is not available. The paint is in fair condition with a few scratches, the hood has one small tear in the fiberglass approx one inch. From previous accident before restoration. Otherwise everything is in great shape, mostly street use or very light trail use only.
