“Rare find, this flat fender jeep has no rust and runs and drives great! I’ve owed this jeep for roughly 25 years and it was my daily driver for many. It’s been garage kept that whole time and never driven on winter roads. Kids, moves and jobs have taken priority in the last several years, and now it’s time to let someone else love the jeep. This jeep is ready to go anywhere you want to take it: it could easily be made into a parade rig, and extreme 4 wheeler, or simply leave it a fun runabout. This is a truly unique rig and still sports many of the original Ford F parts. Text me at 4o6 5four6 two86two to come see it!

1945 Ford GPW 1/4 Ton Utility.  Ford 302 V8 engine, 4 speed manual transmission, 4X4, power steering, power front disc brakes, Unilite Electronic Ignition, Dual Brake Boosters.  Wheel base extended from original with longer frame.  Vintage metal removable hardtop with locking doors.  Front window defroster heater/fan.  Engine was professionally built and has low miles (approx. 1500).  Two-Barrel Holley Carburetor with manual choke.  Starts and runs well.  Interior has a full roll bar.  Includes a nice heavy front duty tow bar.  Also has a Smitty built Rear bumper/Spare tire rack.  Locking hubs front and rear (rear hubs currently set non-functioning/fully engaged). Rear Differential rebuilt with new ring and pinion (est. 5000 miles ago).  New full gauge set but electronic speedometer works off and on (listed mileage is since the engine rebuild, actual mileage is unknown).  Will drive highway speeds with no issues (Drives like an 80’s CJ5 with a V8 power).  Originally a Navy Sea Bee military vehicle.  Has plenty of panache and public appeal whenever drove or shown.”

Bill shared this post. The seller describes it as a 1943 MB with a GPW engine, but the bumper, the took box lids, and the front crossmember all suggest this is a GPW. Maybe the new data tags identify this incorrectly as an MB??
