This is back up for sale. My wife did not enjoy the 4-speed, so we are on the search for a 62. Long story short, I sold this to a good friend of mine (it was not for sale) last month. I got it from Dave, but my friend decided to stick with a truck. I am helping him sell it.
the good
212,000 miles
City Racer carb
4.11's with Auburn limited slip in rear
2-low enabled
diff-breathers
OME heavy springs and shocks
OME greasable anti-inversion shackles
ARB front with 8724 Warn
4-Plus rear
sliders
CCOT center consol
33x10.5 BFG KM2s
Yakima rack
very nice rust free example of an Arkansas since new 60
Since I had ownership, I spent over $2,000 with Forest at Donnies in LR to get things right. We:
replaced the front wheel bearings
rebuilt the rear end
replaced the brakes
replaced the wires, plugs, distributor
replaced the side cover gasket
I will look for the receipts; we moved
the not good:
A/C leaked down; never looked into a fix
there are a few dents, original paint is faded
I really enjoyed exploring the Ozarks woods in this 60 with my girls. We drove it to Jasper and to the Little Red River a few times. I will make someone a nice rig.
$12,000

Dang I sure hate to hear that. I was really hoping you could raise your daughter in it and keep it along time.
I’d buy it back in a heart beat if I had the $$ , my local adventures have dropped off considerability since it’s sell. The 100 just doesn’t have the soul that 60 did and I can’t begin to take the 100 where I did the 60, due to its capability and reliability, plus I trusted it more than any vehicle I’ve ever had. But life changes and something had to give. I spent a lot of years in it exploring and it never failed me.. not once.
I loved that 60 and sure hope someone gets it that will love it and use it. GLWS
