" Beginning in 1965. the M715 was designed and developed by the Kaiser Jeep Corperation. Originally developed to replace the existing M37 series of light trucks. the M715 would become one of the most important trucks in the U. S. inventory. Utilized throughout the armed services. the M715 would become an indelible image of the American experience in Vietnam. as well as later military conflicts. During its service life the M715 would serve as a troop transport. ambulance. cargo transport. and mobile maintenance platform.
Offered at NO RESERVE. It will sell to the last and highest bid
This is an amazingly original military issue Jeep M715 Kaiser with 18K original miles. These Jeeps were built to military specs and made to go anywhere and last forever. Never built for speed or comfort but highly capable with amazing strength. These are very hard to find and I doubt you will see another this original and unrestored. It was bought from military surplus and transported to a privately owned Island in the great lakes. It spent the rest of it's life as a work vehicle a few summer months a year on an Island that was only a mile long. It spent winters in their metal pole barn and was always winterized and very well cared for. About a year ago it was finally retired and shipped back to Columbus where it now resides. To make it a better. road worthy. vehicle It under went a complete mechanical refurbishment and upgrade. The old manual brakes were not safe for today's traffic so they were removed and a new power brake system with all new lines cylinders and pads were installed. Now it stops on a dime. The carburetor was rebuilt. Much of the wiring replaced to assure good lights and electricals. A additional electric fuel pump was added to existing manual pump.  The fuel tank and lines were removed and reconditioned. In all about $5. 00 was spent to make it a reliable and safe vehicle. Any parts removed were saved and will be included with it.  It now starts right up and runs as well as it did new. Only safer.  
It is very solid with only minimal rust and nothing that would need immediate attention. There are older repairs done years ago to the rockers and few small areas in the floors. However the main body panels and frame is very solid and only show the typical surface rust underneath. The bed is also very solid with no signs of rust or repairs.  If it's going to be driven very far it will need tires. They are very old although they hold air and have good tread. The top is in tact but has a few holes. This Jeep can be used as is indefinitely or turned into what ever the next owner desires. The possibilities for these are endless. It would be perfect for a complete authentic restoration or easily made into an incredible rock crawler or the most unique sport utility on the road. There are not many convertible 4 wheel drive pick ups in the world and none as cool as these. The transmission and engine are in great shape and original to the Jeep. Please call and ask questions or set up an inspection prior to bidding or making an offer. I have listed dozens of vehicles on ebay and everyone of them has sold through eBay with 100% positive feedback. the one should be no different. I fully intend for it to sell and for that sale to result in a happy new owner. I find the best way to assure this is through good communication.

I am relisting this because the winning bidder with 0 feedback was unable to make good on his commitment. He never inspected it or ask any questions. Just bid blindly with no intention of ever completing the sale. For this reason I insist if you have less than 5 positive feedback or any negative feedback you must call me prior to bidding so we all know what's expected. Communication is always good and is why I have 100% positive feedback on every car I've ever sold on eBay.  You bid is a legal binding contract to purchase the vehicle at you price. It seems silly I have to say all this but I've learned the hard way that not everyone understands these rules. Bottom line for the best possible outcome pick up the phone and invest the time to make an informed decision.  
A non-refundable deposit of $500 must be paid via paypal within 24 hours after the auction has ended. No exceptions It must be paid in full with cleared funds within 5 days or before it is picked up. Whichever comes first. Shipping is the buyers responsibility. The car is sold AS-IS. Please call with questions. 614-352-3434
