Scooter Posted August 23, 2022 Posted August 23, 2022 Well if this is an original then I probably just hooked one of you up with over 100k profit . If so come in now at least kick down a finder fee. https://www.facebook.com/marketplace/item/481676200315467/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I suspect it is 750K if original. Is that a good deal? Google says it is worth between $20,000 and $30,000 USD but that would be to a collector in the US Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It just looked dam clean I thought. But what do I know that's 42 years before I was born Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The in between stuff is the problem. Electric wires held together with black tape, rusting undercarriage given a coat of rustoleum, rubber gaskets thrown out because replacements cannot be found. I had 2 older vehicles restored during my time in the Philippines and that was my experience with each of them. I would l not have much faith in a Jeep reno beyond having it look good on the outside and run decently. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BrettGC Posted August 23, 2022 Posted August 23, 2022 (edited) I know some people at Gotham Garage that would love to get their hands on that... They hot rodded a Korean war vintage ambulance... Edited August 23, 2022 by BrettGC 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Snowy79 Posted August 24, 2022 Posted August 24, 2022 I looked into one a few years ago just out of curiosity, there are a few around but the majority have swapped out engines. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well I did say I have only watched, paid for and examined two complete renos in the Phils so purely anecdotal reasoning on my part. I am sure you have watched and closely examined many more than that. How may exactly? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
