   Are all 1958 models narrow track? I wish they had included some pictures.

   Thank you, David! I emailed the seller for more info and pictures. I will update if I hear anything.

   I just dug around iny email folders and there was a response with two pictures. It is orange and white with semi-truck style exhaust and a chrome front bumper. He said it has been "reconditioned," so it's hard to say how much work has been done.

   That's a lot of orange peel in the paint.

   Here is the info I got back from the seller: " It is the narrow track CJ-5 chassis underneath with wide wheels and tires. I didn't get the originals.... The cab corners were replaced/welded by the previous owner. The paint job isn't the greatest, and I think the painter/bodyman was shoddy at best and took the elderly PO for a ride, but that's my opinion and I'll leave it right there. Other than that, it drives well (for what it is) but occasionally pops out of second gear. It needs a few small things attended to, like a brake bleed/fluid refresh, fuel lines checked for tightness, and a general maintainance and safety lookover. If I were to keep it, I'd change the fluids in all the gearboxes, engine, radiator, and brakes. It'll be ready for another 50 years. It needs a lead substitute as it has original valve seats. "
