This appears solid, as the seller claims, but is not “bonestock unmolested” “all original except engine”. A cursory glance shows the gauges have all been replaced, it’s got updated rear lights, an aftermarket turn blinker, it’s got turnout hubs, the dash has minor mods, it looks to have been changed to 12 volts, and the bumper area is non stock. My biggest concern would be the lack of real protection on the intake; you can see a simple screen has been attached with a clamp.
“1945 GPW Military Ford Jeep. All original except engine. Motor is a 4 cylinder L head engine off a later model jeep. 3 speed manual. Bonestock unmolested otherwise. Has a 8274 Warn Winch. No rust, no bondo. Never wrecked or rolled. Own a piece of U.S. military history. Runs and drives great. A running, driving, roadworthy daily driver. Clear title in hand. Very rare. Windshield pops out and collapses.”
My guess is that there is only a screen on it is because f-head’s don’t fit well in flat fenders.
I kind of figured that as well 🙂
