Looks like a good price.

“Good rebuilt project or for parts, needs body work, started 2 years ago but haven’t tried since. 1942 Ford with a 1947 Willys CJ-2A Engine, converted to 12v, have carburetor rebuild kit, 4 extra tires, clean title”

UPDATE: **SOLD** Was listed at $10,000.

This may be in pretty good condition, but the tires look flat. Hasn’t run in twenty-four years.

“Vintage 1942 Ford Jeep in great condition. Hasn’t run since 1992 but all parts there and looking good. Newer top. Price negotiable. You tow or drive out. One owner since they bought it in war surplus. Owner was in Auto rebuilding so was in good condition.”

Has an f-head.

“1942 Willys Ford Script GPW (General Purpose Willys) If you know Willys you know this one is rare and hard to come by! It was only made the first few months of 1942. I’m not an expert but it does have the Willy’s Grill and possibly a Ford stamped Willys frame. The engine is not original but starts and runs perfect. I think it is an early fifties F-head. Starts runs and drives great, 4×4 works and the tires are in Nice condition. Like most Willys 70 plus years old it has had modifications including a fuel cell and selecto hubs. The Body and Frame seem to be original and mostly unmolested. It has a few minor oil leaks but you can drive it down the road today! Clear Montana title in hand. If it were original it would be a $40,000 rig unfortunately those are very hard to come by! I believe the price is fair at $6,800 but will consider serious offers”

UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $3900.

Seller honestly describes this as a 20 footer, meaning it has got a few body issues up close, but it runs and drives.

“Up for sale is my little Ford Jeep… It is registered as a 1950 but it is a 1945 with a 46 Willys grill (looks better)
It also has a Ford 2.3 4cyl motor that runs great. This is a great little Jeep. I just mainly used it for running around Twelve Bridges with my family. Out of room now with too many projects. Runs and drives great…top speed around 45-50. Some rust in pass lower fender and some that has been covered over with sheet metal on the driver side floor. It’s a 20 footer. Just a fun little jeep to drive.”

UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $2500.

There appears to be value here.

“For sale is a 1942 Ford GPW military jeep. This one is a restoration project or a very complete parts jeep. The price is a give-away if you’ve kept up with the values of genuine WWII jeeps lately. What you see is what you get. I also have a 1951 M-38 military jeep that has some restoration started. Many other jeeps and parts.”

Looks like it has good potential.

New polished water pump, New chrome headers. Chrome grille. New BFG mud terrain tires. Original body, frame, 3 spd trans and axles, roll cage. Cadillac power steering.

It’s a project.

“Contracted by Willys Overland during WWII, this Ford built relic is dripping with patina and ready for your next project. It has had an F head motor swapped in in place of the original L head.

This Jeep has been sitting for a long time and it will take some work to get it running again, but everything appears to be there. Bill of sale only, but registering it is as simple as a DMV VIN inspection and a brake and lamp inspection at a certified mechanic. Check out the pictures and schedule a time to come take a look at your next Jeep project.”

(05/25/2016) Both are projects.Neither have the correct hubs in back.

“I have two 1942 ford gpw military jeeps.

UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $4995.

“For sale 1942 Ford GPW jeep this jeep is started being restored about 15 years ago. About 95% of the parts needed to restore this jeep are included. Not many of these world war two jeeps left to sell these days and this is a very good project for the price. Well I appriciate all the phones and emails for the jeep. Some updates, bad news some corrison caused by the battery leaking on the front floor pan. The mice have made a mess so I need to power wash it out. Good news, it has many new parts including, T-84 tranny, new wiring harness, side handles bumper gussetts, gages, bumper, tub handles, bumperettes, tire mount. Ford marked parts are seats front, hood, fenders, after I wash it I will be able to tell more first come first serve.”

I’ve never seen the bottom tool indent taken all the way back to the wheel well.

It’s a project.

“This jeep needs full restoreation, it has motor,trans in it.It is a quarter/ton utility jeep I have a clear tn. title.’

UPDATE: **SOLD** Was on eBay.

It’s a GPW that hasn’t been started in a while.

“IMPORTANT UPDATE: Upon further inspection, research and some expert advice (thank you!), I believe this is a 1943-ish Ford GPW. I have included more pictures. Some just for your additional information and some show the details that positively identify it as a Ford GPW as opposed to a Willys MB. For example, the frame under the radiator is an inverted U as opposed to a tube on the Willys.

The one picture is the engine serial number which is 3059695. From what I have read, that’s not the original Kaiser motor.

UPDATE: Still Available.

(11/04/2014) Listed as a 1946, this has GPW tool lids and other military elements. A tailgate has been added. The pics below are from the ad in 2014.

Seller is listing this as a MB/CJ2. However, it looks like this has a GPW body and some military running gear.

“This is a 1948 Jeep/Willys MB/CJ2. As a WWII jeep, at the end of the war these were sold to civilians as a CJ2. As is common in these years, this one has MB parts (military) and CJ2 parts (civilian) as they used all the parts to put these in production. This has the L134 flathead-Go Devil-engine. The engine runs! You can hear it run when you come look at it. I had inquiries so I checked; I drove this jeep. It appears the tranny, etc is fine. I drove it around, however, it has no brakes (brake cylinder is dry). Floorboards are solid. No rust through.

This would be a good project. That was my intention, but other projects took priority. The body has bondo covering it. The “patches” (seen in the photos) are places where the thick bondo has flaked off. The metal underneath is in pretty good shape.

This has a working PTO winch, 4 hi, 4 low, etc. It’s a project, but it has good potential. Two extra military seats and gas tank go with it (not sure what they’re from). Engine has been converted to 12 volt system.”

(03/11/2016) Runs.

“I have a 1942 willys jeep. f script military jeep
runs and drives can be restored or used as is. ”

UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $8000

It runs and drives.

“I have a ford 1942 ford GPW jeep (like a willies) runs and drives, not original motor, but it is the same. body and frame numbers match, I have decided I do not want to spend the time to restore this jeep. If you are interested text me an offer. All gears work, 4×4 works, lights work.”

I don’t see any full floaters on the rear. The body may be sitting on a newer chassis.

http://spokane.craigslist.org/cto/5555877553.html

“I have a very rare hard to find original ford script tub jeep. Ford was only able to brand their tub for a few months in 1942 before the government made them stop. There are very few of these original jeeps still around. I have a 134L engine for extra money. It comes with transmission and transfer case. Someone started putting power steering in it. No seats. It comes as you see it in the pictures. Its a full restoration project. Please call, text or email any questions. Clean clear title.”

UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $12,000

Engine is seized.

“1942 Script Ford GPW. Delivered to the Army on April 29, 1942.
This is a great jeep and has matching frame and body. The engine was a World War II era replacement. This is a great piece of history and has been a joy to own.
The engine has seized and the transmission needs to be repaired.”
