Introduction

What do you get when you combine American 4x4 styling with reliable Japanese engineering - an off-road monster; enter the Mitsubishi J53 JDM Jeep.
Back in 1953, Mitsubishi created a range of off-roaders known as the J-Series produced under license from Jeep. In the USA production of the Willys stopped in '65, however, Mitsubishi had a good thing going and carried on production until 1998.
This lovely example is a J53, and features a 2.7L Mitsubishi turbo diesel engine, perfect just the kind of hardy unit you want when taking this 4x4 off-road.
We really like the look of this example - a rare and unique car that has very low mileage a great conversation starter at any show or 4x4 trial event.
This auction listing was written from information supplied by Glyn after meeting Harry the owner, and having visited and photographed the vehicle.

Ask Questions
Hi you got any idea where I can get parts for a J53 regards Iain
I note the reserve was not met. Could I please ask what the reserve was so I may consider potentially making a revised offer
Am I reading this right. In this vehicles first 30 years of life it only did just over 300 miles
Hi Andrew,
Apologies for my delayed reply.
In short yes, that is how it seems. Normally I would like to substantiate this with some paperwork however in the absence of this we can only go from MOT records and Mileage on the Jeep itself.
I also hope you along with the other bidders can appreciate from the photograph’s this jeep isn’t one that has seen a hard life and is in the condition I would expect to see for the mileage.
Harry
