1942 GPW UK **SOLD**

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

UPDATE: **SOLD** Was on eBay.

George forwarded this nice looking GPW for sale in the UK.

“Her name is “Diana”

Our understanding is that this Jeep has always been in the UK from 1943 and was based with the U S 8th Air force.

Fully restored three years ago by a well known UK Jeep restorer during which time no expense was spared, she is virtually a brand new GPW and must be one of the very best. She drives without any issue’s and the side valve engine pulls very well.

Everything you could wish to specify this Jeep has, even down to her 1942 U S spec Jerry can.

A bonnet bag complete with a full weather kit is included also.

Also there is an (unfitted) “Ohio Brass” Ariel and mast kit complete with mounting bracket.

Not the cheapest GPW in the country but well worth every single penny, an appreciating asset.

She is 110% gorgeous and will not disappoint.”

1941? GPW Emeryville, CA **SOLD**

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

UPDATE: This sold quickly. It was priced at $5000.

“I am the second owner of this jeep (unless you count the U.S. government as the initial owner).

I recently inherited this jeep from my late uncle who operated it from WW2 until he died in 2011.

This jeep has spent the last 68 years garaged in the same garage in Marin County. It has seen extensive use with the volunteer fire department in the hills north of Lucas Valley during the 1950s – 1970s. In the 1980’s, it was re-painted and had restoration work done, new tires/radiator/gearbox/carb/gauges/brakes etc. For some reason, the engine and some parts are painted “John Deere Green”. For the last 20 years it has been used in parades and memorial/veterans day ceremonies.

My uncle served in New Guinea and the Phillipines during 1944 and 1945 with the 914th Engineers. This unit followed the “Fighting Fifth” Air Force in the Pacific. Their main job was to secure and repair forward air bases that had just been captured from the Japanese. He also did surveying, mapping, and construction of command headquarters, bunkers and fortifications in the mountainous regions. There’s no one currently alive in our family who can recall exactly how he acquired this jeep or if it was used in the conflict in the Pacific.

I have the pinkslip in hand (in my name) and it has plates. It is in the DMV system and currently registered as a NON-OP. I recently transported it from Marin to my place in Emeryville so I can clean it up and sell it.

It is free of rust. The tires are almost new with no cracking. The engine is stock with 6volt system. Right windshield has a crack. The engine starts and runs but won’t idle. (Carb issue?)

Seat upholstery might not be original. It has a mounted brand-new matching spare tire, jerry can and mounting brackets for the shovel and axe. (No shovel or axe included). There is a rifle holder mounted to the inside windshield. Windshield flips down. I even have keys for the fenderwell tool boxes.

I have it up on jackstands so potential buyers can see the wheels turn. It can’t be test driven on streets because there’s no brakes. Might need a brakes rebuild. Plus, it’s not currently registered for on-road nor is it insured. I can only sell it to someone who shows up with a hauler/trailer of flatbed hauler. It can’t be legally “towed” (with it’s tires touching the pavement).

This GPW comes with about 400 lbs of spare parts. Many of these parts are new. Plus it comes with some military uniform parts, helmet etc. Plus some printed memorabilia (reproductions) about the 914th Engineers.

First 5000.00 (CASH ONLY) takes it. Do not contact me unless you are personally interested in purchasing it directly and picking it up in person. Do not contact me if you are some middleman, broker or scammer. First come, first serve. First one who contacts me gets the first appointment to inspect it.”

1942 GPW Lakeport, CA **SOLD**

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

UPDATE: **SOLD** This is an early GPW sold on eBay.

“this Ford GPW was the 10,584th GPW built, and is one of the last ones made with a Willys frame. It has just been completely restored and has only four miles on it, it runs good but is some missing items like seat cushions, filterette, pioneer tools, oil can, canvas top, one J hook and some of the radio suppression straps. Most of the big parts are original and correct, and it has the original floorpans though they have been patched a little and the fuel tank well was replaced. The significant reproduction items on the jeep are the rear seat, spare tire rack, front bumper, air cleaner, horn, speedometer, oil/temp/amp gauges and data plates. Fenders, hood, windshield, fuel tank, front seats, radiator, grille, regulator, generator, fuel strainer and starter are original. The battery is new but not an antique style, it also has either period or new bolts in about three dozen places there should be F marked bolts, other than that this jeep is very correct. The jeep is registered non-op and has California plates and a clear title, it also comes with the original speedometer that should be repairable. The headlight switch is an original and has been not working correctly, it may have to be replaced if I can’t fix it in the next few days.

The tires are the repop Firestones, and all of the rims are original combat type, I do have a couple more radio suppression straps that are not in the photos that were installed later under the hood.

This is you chance to get one of the rarest GPWs made, in nice shape and ready for parades, reenactments or with some modest amount of parts and work a factory show jeep. If you have questions or would like more photos please ask, thanks for looking!”

1942 GPW Oakland, CA $6,000

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

UPDATE: Price dropped to $6000.

(01/31/2013) Numbers matching according to the seller, but still plenty of work left.

“1942 Ford GPW war jeep. This is a matching numbers vehicle and therefore considered the best choice for an accurate, period restoration. Matching number Ford GPWs are almost impossible to find, due to the fact that the motor pools would change-out engines as needed and not rebuild and replace the same one.
Also, this is an excellent restoration choice due to the condition. The jeep has not been modified at all, with the exception of the addition of a roll bar, and retains all of the correct parts. Jeeps of this era have usually been modified to an extreme. After the war, bought surplus, they were used on ranches and farms, for hunting and survey work–and in recent decades, extreme off road use. Each brought its own modification.
This rare bird has a body–the tub– in rare un rotted/smashed/chopped up condition. This adds a great deal of value for the final restoration product.
It has not been run in a couple of decades, but was driven until it was parked. The engine turns over easily, without a wrench needed.
What matching numbers means: The frame # and the engine # match. There are no numbers on the bodies of this type, other than the data plate, which unfortunately is gone.
The tires are suitable for rolling around, but it will need a trailer for transport.
This GPW is the one all the serious restorers are looking for. As complete restorations go, it will be easier than most, due to the condition and completeness.
Asking 10K. The price may go down in several months, but for now that’s it, so don’t bother with offers unless you want to go on the waiting list.
Not interested in trades, I need the cash. The truck is near east Oakland, California, across the bay from San Francisco. Please reply via this ad. Can be shown during the week as well as weekends. Please be a nice person, i.e. don’t waste my time if you don’t have the cash.
See the pictures here on the link below for Photobucket.
Have a great day.
