WTF? Am I just too young to understand why the bidding is at $36,100???? I guess so becuase the reserve is not met yet either. I know that this Would be great to have though........

wow if you bid on that you must be crazy. From the images its a HUGE rebuild project. Sure you can say its one of 2 but i spent 40g+ then has to restore it. I feel the buyers are totally getting screwed here.

If it wasn't on E-Bay I would think it was a joke.
The restoration would be insane just like the price that it is at now.
Thanks for posting this one.
Man - I'm still floored.
I need another cup of coffee.

Jeez that thing is a heap. I wouldnt bid more than $5000 and if i was to bid $5000 it would have to have alot of the crap for the resto. The buyer as i said earlier is getting screwed. Its not even a jeep...its a prototype made by ford. Willis beat em out. <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/kewl.gif" alt="" /> for obvious reasons. its doesnt have the 7 slot grill baby <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/kewl.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/patriot.gif" alt="" />

thats a big chunk of history there...worth more the way it sits than if you restore it. it really needs to go into a museum somewhere for everyone to gawk at <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/kewl.gif" alt="" />

it also serves to remind many of us "jeepers" that we were almost driving fords! <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/barf.gif" alt="" />

good find!

It's over $40,000 now...
My wife would take me behind the barn and shoot me if I bought that thing. Museum piece for sure.
