Vehicle Description: "Jeep Tractor", marketed to farmers and contractors in a stripped down version. Had heavy duty suspension and 3 pt hitch from the factory with no windshield, tailgate,lights, horn or speedometer. It´s the only one I know of with the GD1 serial number. I painted it a ´Nassau Cream´, a color that was available for Willys in 1951, but in reality the original color was probably ´Utility Beige.´

Vehicle Story: Purchased in ´03, had lived at one point as a lumber yard work vehicle. Had a mishmash of older parts from CJ2As, took us a while to figure out what we had. I did a frame-off total restoration in ´04 and it´s now my wife´s daily driver to work, (weather permitting). Runs like a top! It´s great to drive, you just have to enjoy going 40-45 max.
