1942 GPW Crawford, CO **SOLD**

• CATEGORIES: GPW (Ford MB) • TAGS: This site contains affiliate links for which I may be compensated.

UPDATE:  **SOLD** Winning bid was $4000.

This no reserve auction has already reached a bid price of $3500.  It has no motor.

You are bidding on a rare 1You are bidding on a rare 1942 ford script gpw jeep. This ford jeep has the willys frame with gpw serial number stamped on it which to my understanding is rare as ford used willys frames only in February and March of 1942. The serial number is ( gpw 5204 ) the frame, data plate and title all match, Date of delivery is 3-10-42 . I have a clear Colorado title for the jeep.

Unfortunately the engine was removed so the jeep does not come with a motor. I do however have a completely rebuilt civilian flat head 4 cylinder that the winning bidder can purchase if they so choose.

The transmission is an original T-84, I have taken it apart cleaned, sandblasted and primed it. I bought some new bearings, seals, small parts kit and a few other things to rebuild the transmission, its ready to put back together.

The transfer case I took apart and cleaned, It still has the original OD on it so I decided not to sand blast it. The emergency brake pad is in great shape. I bought seals and bearings for it and its also ready to be put back together.

Seat frames, front fenders, head lights, marker lights, radiator, body handles, ax bracket, leaf springs, axles, U bolts, and a lot of bolts are stamped F along with much much more.

The steering wheel is original and in great condition with no cracks.
Speedometer looks really nice
Comes with 3 combat wheels
has original exhaust pipe and muffler
original drive shafts

very nice windshield frame with the hardware to mount the canvas top, no cracks in the glass ether.

the frame is in great shape but does need a new rear bumper as part of it was cut off.

The body is in good shape with a very nice Ford script on the back. The brace under the passenger seat has some rust coming through on top of the floor but under neath is almost perfect, in front of that is very nice and solid with no rust. The rear floor does have some gone through rust in it so will probably need replaced or patched up. tool boxes are in good shape, there is a little gone through rust where the ax handle goes and the fuel tank sump should probably be replaced. Other than that the body is very nice and has the patina look to it….”

“This is an original, 1942 GPW Ford Jeep. It was built Dec. 21, 1942. This jeep is as complete and rust free as you will ever find. This jeep has always been garaged and has a clear Title.
The Ford GPW were manufactured from 1941 to 1945. These small four-wheel drive utility vehicles are considered the iconic World War II Jeeps

This jeep comes complete with all five combat rims and canvas. There are numerous extra parts, including the original carburetor, 6-volt generator and fire extinguisher. I have converted the lights and alternator to 12 volts for brighter headlights but the jeeps comes with its original regulator, original generator, gauges and tail lights etc …. everything to put it back into 6 volts.”

1943 GPW Missouri eBay

• CATEGORIES: GPW (Ford MB) • TAGS: , This site contains affiliate links for which I may be compensated.

This looks pretty solid. One of the commenters believes this might be an early GPW.

“Up for auction is my Jeep Willys MB in very restorable condition. Very solid body and no rust on frame.(Don’t let the pictures confuse you) The only rust on the body is on both sides of the head channels, approx. 4” long. Can be repaired without removing panels. 5 Original Combat rims with all new tubes & tires. Engine turns by hand. Tranny, 4 wheel drive, Hi/Low levers move freely as they should. Vehicle stears nicely and rolls freely.

My opinion is that this is an easily restorable project. The vehicle is 90% there, all original including almost all original E C marked bolts and early zipper style cushions. (see pics) There is the original front bumper and wooden filler. I believe that the body was never taken off the frame. Vehicle has clean transferable title. It is titled as a 1943 Jeep Willys Ut, which I’m not sure is accurit, since I don’t have the original data plates. Vehical originally came from California.

Please examine all pictures closely, so you can see what you’re bidding on and all that is included in this auction. Here is a link to the photo album of 90 pictures:

1942 GPW Phoenicia, NY **SOLD**

• CATEGORIES: GPW (Ford MB) • TAGS: , This site contains affiliate links for which I may be compensated.

UPDATE: **SOLD** Was on eBay. It really is a unique jeep.

“For your consideration, a nice 1942 Ford GPW jeep. Body is in nice shape structurally, although someone built a quality homemade roof out of thick metal on the body. Unfortunately, they cut down the body sides and middle of rear on original tub to accommodate the doors. Looks very professional, maybe was done in the service? ..I was told by original owner that it was surplused out and bought in this exact condition.  I Have seen in books some similar conversions done in Europe after the war, to make the open jeep more comfortable…and useful. Would make a great reeinactors vehicle. Looks like a mini ambulance body. Rear floors and wheel wells are really nice shape. There is no rust in the back, looks like it had never been in the elements.
Floors are original, and very good except for a couple tin plates on the front, although there is original metal underneath.
Excellent original data plates, and dash, also windshield is very clean.
Frame is quite nice and is not rusted thru, just surface rust all over underneath. Needs a good sandblasting.   The front gussets are mostly there, and with some grinding, the welded on reinforcement material can be removed without damaging the original frame.
Non – original, but well running Cj2a engine. Original t84 transmission and rest of drivetrain. Springs are original “ford” type in good condition on all four corners.
4 very good shape combat wheels are on the jeep. Also has nice ford radiator, air cleaner and lots of ‘f’ marked bolts. Has 2 ‘F’ marked seats in the front (pass. not shown).
Looking for the title ….Sold as is, no warranty…please email questions.
Thanks”

“Due to financial dificulties, I am putting my WWII Jeep up for sale that I have owned since 1967. It was delivered to the Army in April 1945. That is the only history of it prior to when I purchased it that I know. I have tried to keep it as original as possible. I spent over $6000 in parts in 1997 (canvas top, seats, tires, lights, gauges, brakes, exhaust, carburetor, etc.). This past fall, my son and I installed all new leaf springs, shocks and shackles. It runs good and is very reliable. Never fails to get attention wherever we drive it. Has CLEAR title. Asking $6000 obo.”
