Jeremy discovered just the project he was hoping to find. Congrats! You can see he has already recruited an enthusiastic assistant!
Jeremy writes, I “Found this on eWillys.com – was listed as a 1942 GPW. Sent my wife down yesterday and got it today. Turns out to be a 1943, but the frame and engine match – I am really happy with this jeep. Lots of original parts and the owner James was super nice. James was insistant that he sell the jeep as a whole unit to someone who will restore it rather than part it out. I guess he just had to wait for the right buyer. Looking forward to a long restoration.”
Good to see a young fan getting involved…Just curious which listing this jeep was purchased from.. Looks like a great project.
Bill, it was this listing: http://www.ewillys.com/?p=50989
There were no pictures and the seller incorrectly listed it as a ’42 GPW.

Wow! Jeremy is really lucky! And his little fan would be a real helper! Congrats to both of you: Jeremy, the fan and the jeep, too!
The whole family is involved in this one. We are really happy to have found it
