G503 Spotlight Blurb: |
MB 210793. Purchased in 2006 from a guy who imported it from the New York area. OD under thick navy gray topped off with flight line yellow? Engine is CJ but many hard to find parts still there. Stencil on the grill reads NAS Point Mugu California. |
Notes/Comments: |
Data plates missing and engine is CJ. Other than that this is a very nice original jeep with many parts intact including split rims. Body work is solid thanks to the thick gray paint, except for areas of the front floor where water has collected. Interior painted black over OD. Hoping hood numbers are there as I see OD under the yellow and gray. Large hole rough cut above carb, presumably for a snorkel? Original front bumper found underneath later additions. Frame, frame horns and gussets all straight and intact. Oval frame data tag. Stencil on the grill reads NAS Point Mugu California. This started as a training area for Seabees and later became a weapons test facility. Have sourced most of the missing parts and will be replacing the engine with MB 352478 from one of my GPWs. |
