$18k seems a bit high for a jeep you haven't inspected in person. Well
restored WWII jeeps do go for around $15k routinely among restorers/
collectors though.

$18k seems a bit high for a jeep you haven't inspected in person. Well
restored WWII jeeps do go for around $15k routinely among restorers/

I personally think that all Jeeps of this era are overpriced because
what can you really do with them? They can't haul "stuff" like a
pickup and you can't haul people like you could with a car.
But....that's just me.
Even though most parts interchange with the ****** jeep, please
remember that this is a Ford jeep and it will probably command a
higher price. Still a lot higher than what I would be willing to pay.
