    Either the .50 cal is fake or it’s not part of the sale. The gun alone is worth at least $125K if it’s real.

    I agree this appears to be GPW: the headlight brackets are bolted up under the top of the grill and appear to be Ford.
    I reached out to the sellers, encouraging them to bring this to our Parker AZ military vehicle swap meet and display 19-21 March. Parker is just down the 95 from Mohave. She replied and noted that this IS still for sale.

    Dave, I noticed this jeep has come up a few times in different eWillys posts, the most recent being “1942 MB? Fort Mohave, AZ $17,820”: same pics on that Facebook listing but a better price. In getting ready for our big Parker AZ Military Vehicle Display and Swap Meet (hoping this seller will attend), I entered “Mohave” in your search field and also found this on May 25th, “1942 MB? Fort Mohave, AZ $22,000”: no pics at that time but it noted “sim operated 50. Cal. Machine gun”… so the 50 Cal is fake as Joe Curtis observed… or demilitarized/modified. Interestingly back in April 13, 2019, your post “1942 MB? Mohave County, NV $20,000” showed this with the trailer.

    Hi Joe,

    Clearly you are paying more attention than I am! I’ll have to go back through and clean these up…. I figured the gun wasn’t real, but surprised the seller suggested it was. I thought it best to ask some experts out there before I assumed one way or another.

    – Dave
