thanks so much! Great comments and no I¡¯m not really a motivated seller.?
The first car I ever bought(what was I thinking) was a beautiful but unrestored ¡¯53 utility wagon with a flat head 4 cylinder.?
Since then I¡¯ve always had one so it will be strange not to have one sitting in the yard. On the other hand, there may be a time to divest and let someone who loves tinkering etc. have one.
Best,

David, if you will permit a few more comments...
You only need one "good" customer, someone who's eyes light up when he (unlikely she) sees your Willys.? I remember selling various Brit and Swedish sports cars - you could tell when the right prospective buyer showed up vs the ones that were only interested at the very lowest price.?? Here in a coastal city, very few people under 50-60 years old know anything about older vehicles.? When I take our wagon out once or twice a year, almost everyone who seems interested asks what year Toyota it is.? The reason I mention this is that the automotive world has moved on in young people's minds; they are more interested in the electronics of their new car than the mechanicals... you seem however to live in a more rural area, based on the pictures and so should have more luck. Hopefully, you don't fall into the catergory of "motivated seller" to use the jargon and can wait for the price you want.
Since you say the vehicle is really useful, with snowplow and runs "like a top", do you have a nice round figure in mind?? Say $10k?? What would a similar condition F100/F150 sell for?
Hoping you have success,
Cheers, Pavel.
