Neither Snow Nor Rain... Could Stop This Beast!

This iron-clad piece of American history has stories to tell! Originally a dedicated U.S. Mail carrier, this workhorse then faithfully served the water district's meter reading team before earning its well-deserved retirement.

THE SPECS THAT MATTER:
Odometer:** 49,003 miles of pure nostalgia
Condition:** Runs like a BEAST
Ride Quality:** Think wooden roller coaster meets off-road adventure
Smiles Per Mile:** UNLIMITED

YOUR OPTIONS:
1. RESTORE IT – Turn this postal legend into your weekend warrior, parade showpiece, or the coolest grocery-getter in town!

2. RIDE IT – Experience the bone-rattling, smile-inducing joy of vintage Jeep engineering

3. PART IT OUT – A treasure trove for Jeep enthusiasts and restoration projects

WHY YOU WANT THIS:
Because when was the last time you could say, "Yeah, I drive a retired mail Jeep"?
