“1943 Ford GPW runs and drives but motor could use rebuild smokes Could use some tie rods ends. The body is in very good condition converted to 12 V recent tuneup new water pump and battery”
Sounds like this might have some interesting history.

UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $3500.
(12/07/2018) Has some CJ parts.
“This is a 1943 (based on VIN) GPW Military Jeep. Needs some work on the drivers and passenger floors, the axe and shovel panel and the rear panel. The rear floor and panels are solid with just surface rust. It has a CJ grill. But I have a WW2 grill which I will include. The left and right fenders need some welding. The gas tank sump needs to be replaced and it needs a gas tank. It has an L134 4 cyl Go Devil Engine, which turns easily and it has a 6 volt alternator. It should be easy to get running. Also, I believe the transmission is the T-90. Based on the color, I would say this was used by the Air Force after the war.”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $3750.
(02/17/2019) Needs some work. Does not have the original engine.
“1942 Willy’s

I also have a pair of suspension seats for the front. Is a project and needs some TLC. Gas tank need to be put back in with fuel lines and the exhaust downpipe needs to be refitted to the exhaust manifold. The carburetor could use to be rebuilt also.

Roger Martin spotted this GPW for sale. The jeep is listed by a neighbor; the actual seller is Matt. However, the friend who listed it somehow got Matt’s phone number automatically hidden, so there’s no way to contact Matt as of this post. I suspect Matt’s contact info will land on the ad once it has been updated.

“Rare 1944 Ford GPW WWII Willy’s jeep up for sale! This amazing military vehicle can either be restored or used for parts. As it sits, it is mid-restoration and a lot is taken a part so there are a good amount of parts that will be included with this Ford (see photos). These original (not replica/remakes) GPW’s are hard to come by!
ALSO COMES WITH ORIGINAL DATA PLATES!
(Please note that the front wheels are sitting on there for picture, they are not actually crooked).
This would be a fun project for you to do. This does have some rust (see photos) but the frame is solid. There are a lot of original parts that will come with this bundle (see photos) but the motor, steering wheel, and the front axle are not original. *Please note that we are not experts in collector military vehicles, so there may be other parts that are not original.”
UPDATE: Still Available.
(01/19/2019) Seems like there is value here.

“Real deal WWII army jeep, looks like it was used as a highway dept vehicle after it went surplus. Ford GPW body on a Willy’s MB frame. Basically straight tub but needs a gas tank well. Missing the right front fender. No running gear. Frame is good except for a crack that will need further welding but holds for now – see pic. These are easy rigs to restore and a blast to drive when you’re done, and they take up no space to store. Or, start with this and build whatever 4×4 you want! Clear title.”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $5500.
Lots of mods and parts.

UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $7500.
It needs a lot of work for the price.
“A very good candidate for restoration, has the original Ford stamped head. This is a WW2 military or US Army USMC US Navy Jeep GPW. I will return a call if you leave your phone number.”

“1942 ford gpw. Clean idaho title in my name. Yes its registered as a 42 Gpw! Not a jeep willys. New brakes and tires. Buick 225 v6. Runs and drives well. All lights and gauges work. Has a cj gas tank and fill neck. Otherwise stock”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $5800.
“This GPW Runs and drives but the up-keep was done by folks that fixed things with whatever was available. No doubt they were innovators but not mechanics. The motor needs a rebuild; the floor, although will work for some, needs some new sheet metal. The mechanicals need gone through. It is mostly original 1945 vintage parts.”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $5850.
Runs and drives. Engine will need a rebuild.
“1945 Ford GPW #267700 matching numbers on frame and body. Motor runs but needs rebuilt. Body work has been done on this over the years, floor redone but not right, some bondo in cowl on the passenger side and over rear wheel well on passenger’s side. It’s a ten footer! By no means is this a pile of junk but I just want anyone interested to know the facts about it. I am pulling the engine next week and the price will go up accordingly. Look at E-Willys or any of the military jeep for sale sites and you will see what a really nice one goes for.With new floor panels, new rear fender wells and the motor rebuilt and the major work is done. I will pull the body off after the motor is rebuilt and do the floor and rear fender wells again the price will reflect the repairs as I go through it.”
UPDATE: Status Unknown. Was $3500.
This seems to be a mix of a GPW chassis and a VEC CJ-2A body.
“Bought this for my dad who doesn’t have time to restore. It does run. I bought new tires, new seats, has a hard top with it. It’s running pretty good.”
Has a V-6 and some other mods. It appears to have a GPW crossmember.

“For sale is this 1942 Willys jeep. This was inherited in a trust and I don’t have the time or space to bring it up to its full potential. these things are valued at $20,000 and even higher when fully restored. This one has a Buick v-6 engine, 4wd manual transmission. Sat in storage for 10 or more years, and now it’s time for the right person to put the rubber back on the road. asking $3000 but open for all offers. Must sell before property sells so bring offers to the table.”
Barry went on a recent trip to Torino, Italy. There, he visited Italy’s National Auto Museum, where he spotted this Ford GPW. It was only one of three US vehicles in the museum.
He added, “Jeep is a big name in Italy since acquired by Fiat. From the marker it looks like they are trying to associate this with the modern “Jeep” name. Excellent display of over 200 European autos dating back to the late 1800’s”
Here’s a second image from Wikipedia showing a slightly different angle:
This is an exterior shot of the museum:
UPDATE: **SOLD** $25,000.
Seller notes the price is negotiable. Found a pic for it. Windshield looks like it is completely vertical.
“1942 GPW Jeep. Previously owned by Howard Pardue, collector of WW2 War Birds. Jeep has new tires, new seats, all new gaskets, seals, and rubber moldings. Converted to 12 volt. Excellent running condition. Has a clean title. Price is negotiable.”
