“This is a 1944 GPW Ford made WW2 Jeep with clean title. I fully rebuilt this jeep in 2012 with a frame off restoration.

The engine, clutch and transmission have been professionally rebuilt. 4×4 works perfectly. I have over 400 documented hours into the restoration, and I’ve spent 1/3 more than the asking price. its had over 1200 trouble free miles since its restoration.
This restoration uses the original tub, frame, parts and sheet metal. Reproduction parts have been kept to a minimum but include hat channels and a little sheet metal. It has all of the original Ford WW2 engine and drivetrain, axles, driveshafts, etc.
The good: runs and drives great, new Vintage Wiring of Maine correct looking wiring harness, new brakes and master cylinder, and new tires. It has reproduction data plates. Has reproduction WW2 combat wheels including spare. Has a WW2 fuel can and water bag, included.

Appears to have a GPW crossmember.

“This vintage jeep has been in the family for about 10 years. It ran and drove well before it went into the shop for a new firewall. Was given to step son as a first vehicle, however this is not a good vehicle for a new driver. I can send more pictures or answer additional questions if requested.

The Good:
Custom Fuel tanks fabricated by Roper Fabrication
Brand new Firewall fabricated by Roper Fabrication
327 SBC Engine freshened up all new gaskets and seals
New heads
New Holly carb (CFM unknown)
PSC Power steering
Lots of parts, just needs someone with the time to wrench them together
Tub is in good shape

The bad:
Needs repainting
No wiring, requires all electrical installation
May need new driveshafts, have the originals, but new ones would be better
Has not run in about 3 years”

(10/07/2016) It looks like the tool lids are MB rather than GPW.

“Bought this and did alot to it but alot had already been don. I mainly did the cosmetic restore.. someone else did alot of other mechanical stuff to it.. I bought it from a guy in Washington state. I have Washington title.. easy to swap over..

Get it cheap because I need cash.. these go for upwards of 20k.. I’m selling cheap because I need cash quick.. I just finished my restoring.. it needs to be driven is all.. it has an oil pan leak.. u can see where it’s coming from .. that is all it needs to be just about perfect..

Some additional parts as well. Must take everything.

“Well not a complete GPW. What I have is frame with axles, springs,steering and wheels. Also included is windshield assembly, and front fenders. The frame serial number is 19095. The frame is solid. It has the original F script trans cross member. Half of the machine gun mount has been cut off, has 4″ channel for a front bumper and the front u-shaped cross member has had the front of it removed and replaced with angle iron. You can see in the pictures. Axles are Willys MB and turn fine. The left rear axle shaft is an early scalloped type. Has steering gear box and steering wheel. Brake and clutch pedals and master. T84 F script case. Bell housing, shift tower and working 18 transfer case. Fenders are in decent shape.
