Free 1975 DJ5 Mail Jeep!! Off the road for over 20 years! Will it run?!? Right hand drive things! 

Wooooof!

Absolutely

Smart enough to get to do his favorite games whenever he wants and make sure his human understands and gives him the time and play that he wants. He has his human well trained. Lol.

I always wanted to put a mail jeep body on a CJ5 for a hunting rig that was different from everyone else's.

Duff reminds me of my ragdoll cat Tolousse before he died, he was all about stuff like that too and so smart,sadly he passed away 2 years ago, but thankful he lived 18 good years

it was at cleetus and cars he just hasnt uploaded the video just like matt fromk demolition ranch he was there with the elchromino

also it wasnt derek this came up in my recommended tab by the other feller who looked at it wasnt derek i cant remember the fellers name but he went fooled with it couldnt get it running and left it there

I think you should hold onto it....wait till the price of scrap metal is up.

Maybe, but Mortske and Duff can really send it in this postal Jeep.

Safety issue of them being flipped....most were sold to tour guides in Bahamas. And turned into jeepneys

I was thinking the same... same with real Checker cabs and Caprice and now Crown Vic police cars... all going away, and it's sad.

Where everybody knows your name!

This thing worth 10k in yt content

of corse duff says road trip woof woof

Without watching the video I guess it will need a starter.

@@johndii2194 Actually no, lol

Brilliant!

Not a bad idea there!

Great idea!! If only I didn't have 294 other projects!

@@MortskeRepair I would considered it finished as is and use only around shop untill it meets ifs final demise then the crusher.

@@garymccord4277 That's likely what's gonna happen!

It's running better now just kidding

to be fair if it’s the guy we think it is, he has his hands full with projects right now, many of which are on a tight time schedule to get completed. That’s just my .02

Also looking to move down south. But who knows

I would have a hard time taking that thing for free. Lots of rust. Got other projects being neglected already.

I don’t really like that other guys videos. He’s trying too hard to be funny. His channel has changed a lot.

@@Ian-of9oi REMEMBER ; NOTHING IS TRULY FREE / EXCEPT FOR THE GRACE FROM GOD . /JESUS SAVES / ( SELAH )

Glad you enjoyed it Scott!

Sounds like a wild ride Bert!

Should have used a hardwood!

U didn't like 1 second of it? Its 39:52 LONG.....lol

@@jontrudell7529 LOL!

I wouldn't wish this thing upon anyone! ha

Clean up week machine right here!

All these jeeps are crawlers. The name says it all, it's a WILLYS, it needs WHEELIES BARS, yeah? Go fast bars, hit the gas see nuthin but sky, Like offroad in a jeeps never been done. Please. It needs to be slammed, chopped, it needs a massive overkill engine, no fucks given, the mail is going to be on time. You're not even talking offroad, rockcrawling is as UNPRACTICLE as you can get. Swarm of zombies, are coming right at you.. You are gonna jump in the ROCK CRAWLER? You're dog food, boy. You want TOYS. Those will get ya nowhere quick.

@@DiaryofaGrimReaper lol wow that was unexpexted!

@@ABANDONEDCARREVIVALS I actually owned a DJ6, and that was what I was going to do with it. But plans change and it went to someone else who restores them, it IS going back on the road.. But my point is clear. Especially these hotboxes, you cook in these. The windows don't roll down, and their all rustier than the titanic. Which is strange for government vehicles that are maintained more than civilian cars.. It's Duff approved. Duff likes to go fast.

@@DiaryofaGrimReaper lol, yes, Duff does like to go fast!

@@DiaryofaGrimReaper I am pretty sure that Duff doesn't do go fast. He is a drug free dog. Lol

Sounds like a local guy here used one for a commuter back in the day!

Buy a cj big job and costly

There's actually a few guys who've done it if you do some searching!

@@MortskeRepair project. Cheap jeep. Series of article's from jeep. Magazine early. 00s..your missing postal tray on left side that held mail..do power wash macguyver. Frame patch sheetmetaand use as a duffy dawg coachl

He’ll sell it to you, be such a cool vehicle to have over there, He said everything’s for sale :)

It would cost more to ship than its worth..maybe evergreen will do it. Wonder if they had right hand drive?

@@davidnichols647 so true.

@@shakyhandpictures2185 not cost effective because of shipping and import duties and registering.

@@davidnichols647 would take evergreen years to ship. Lol.

Gonna need a bigger storage area!

@@MortskeRepair Trailer hitch with a 16 foot enclosed behind would do 😁

@@bluegrallis This thing wouldn't pull a little red wagon much less that!

@@MortskeRepair 😂👍

This could be yours!

They're fun little rigs! I've got a soft spot for inline sixes as well!

That AMC 258 was an awesome engine.

the suspension is a bit soft too!

My brother in law ( Jewish lawyer ) owned a book store and loaded it down to the bump stops with old books he’d buy at garage sales !

Yes full restoration.

Hey no mock the jeep...dad's life was saved by one when as driver he was ambushed by Waffen SS Good Friday 194t and drove into ditch for cover then pulled themite grenade to destroy jeep. ..good. Ending saved. Week later by army tank corps

@@rsprockets7846 no mock here. Them older heeps are pretty mint wouldnt mind having one but a guys got other shitboxes id rather put the effort into

Its only 12.15 am 30-3-21 for me

Sounds like quite the rig!

Oh I bet that is good!

Ps I reckon when it stalled out on the road I noticed that Duff jumped out and while you cranked it over he was under the hood without his thumbs tinkering helping after all he got the best teacher and boss

Exactly!

The PO had a large number of these DJs'. Since you mentioned the Chevette, I'm assuming you may have been a mail carrier. I was a letter carrier for 31 years. For those who may have an interest, they leased a number of the yellow-painted GM Chevettes, and also bought many white-painted Ford Pintos (earlier ones were blue). They were all pretty much basic vehicles with little more than a heater. These vehicles were used primarily for "park-and-loop" delivery since they were common production left hand steering and would have been difficult for curb box delivery. They also bought a panel van in the 60s'-70s' called, simply, The half-ton. Someone in the PO ranks had the foresight to purchase a design-specific delivery vehicle called the LLV. About 100,000 of the LLVs' (Long-Life Vehicles) were purchased, starting in the late 80s', for about $12,000 each They used a modified S-10 GM chassis and powertrain, and production ended about 1994. There were several thousand of a Ford version bought later to add to the fleet. As has been typical of the PO, these vehicles had few creature comforts except for a heater; the LLV did, at least, have power steering. Of all the PO vehicles of the last few decades, and in my opinion, probably the LLV has been the best vehicle for the money since they're now in their third decade of use and has been largely dependable. A hundred or so have caught fire in recent years of the 100,000 bought. The PO has submitted request for bids from several companies to replace the LLV; don't know the current status of that. They, of course, have had a number of delivery vehicles prior to that period but I am not familiar with those since I was not a mail carrier during those times. And, there are a number of vehicles used for other purposes such as transport and collection.

@@robj2704 THANKS FOR THE INFO / VERY INTERESTING / FROM SOME ONE WHO HAS BEEN THERE

I got what I paid for!

What species do you recommend?

@@MortskeRepair 🙄 you plonker Mortske

My film team is working on it as we speak!

Excellent idea

Haha that's great!

Been there, done that!

Hey cp

He loves to run!

You get what you pay for!

Pretty much!

Thanks!

Ahh yeah I've run into that before. The regulator costs more than a new fuel pump tho!

I think your mail jeep needs company. In one of your junk yard crawls I saw three different jeeps. I think they were all 40s vintage Willys jeeps. It would be a pretty cool series of videos to rescue each and bring them back to life. We could all learn a little more about these cool old machines. It would be a nice bonus if a vin check places one of the jeeps in war time service.

@@toddhayes9955 I'll have to see if I can round one up!

Mama always said I was special!

Our dogs name is cooter. Ha Ha

I couldn't run to the mailbox!

So nice of you Sam!

I appreciate that Gregory!

They're great dog haulin rigs!
