Though dented, this appears solid.

UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $20,000

Looks like the front frame rails have been patched?  I can’t quite tell for sure.

“I’m selling my WWll Willys. I’m too old to drive it anymore. Only used in the Veterans day parade the last few years. The way you see it is the way I bought it. Numbers matching chassis with a new tub. Has G.I. tow bar and pintel hook. Reproduction .30 cal. machine gun with pedestal. Dash mounted rifle scabbard.”

UPDATE:  This appears to have sold.  Was listed at $5000.

(07/15/2012)  Still plenty of work left.

“You are looking at a 1942 Ford GPW military jeep. Restoration was started over 10 years ago and never completed. Motor, trans, transfer case, and axles have been rebuilt. The body is an aftermarket piece and sits on a very nice straight and rust free frame. Have most parts to complete (some not pictured) and will be included with the sale.”

UPDATE:  Was listed at $7500. Status Unknown.

This may be worth a look.  Tranny was stuck in 3rd gear.

“1942 Willies Jeep. This is actually my dad’s jeep and he asked me to sell it. This jeep has sat in the barn for years. It would be great for a collector. The last time I drove it, it only had 3rd gear. This Jeep was displayed at the Tillamook Air Museam.”

This looks in good shape.

“Here is a fully restored back to original 1945 Willys MB from World War 2. Restoration about 7 years old. Runs & drives good. Has original engine, transmission/transfer, and front/rear ends. Full top canvas and all 3 seats with combat rims and NDT’s. Ask questions or make arrangements for viewing. Clear Illinois title. Fully registered and insured now. Thanks”

UPDATE: **SOLD**

“It’s unfortunate that I have to sell this Jeep, but with a 3, 1 year old, and a third one due in a week, I just don’t have the time to finish this project.

It was purchased last year, and all I’ve managed to accomplish with my spare time was painstakingly remove the civilian paint in order to expose the windshield markings, original hood numbers, and the original OD. I also collected some missing parts. This is a rare “matching” numbers 1943 Willys MB with original tags and markings.

Frame: MB215454
Nomenclature Plate: MB215454
Engine: MB230240
Hood Number: 20308931

I’m really looking for someone who will appreciate the originality of this Jeep and not attempt to strip and do a frame-off restoration.

A few details:

The paint is about 90% original OD. I removed spots of bondo on front lip of the hood, side handles and section of rear panel. The bondo was there to cover minor dents NOT rust areas. Using about four shades of OD, I managed to blend and age the new paint with the original.

– Based on the license plates, the Jeep is no longer in the California DMV System. The previous owner lost the title long ago. I can only provide a Bill of Sale.

– Original “split” front seats and rear seat came off another 1943 MB. All three are solid. The rear is the best one I’ve ever come across.

– Minor rust through in the passenger-side channel (shown in photo)

– Rear “V” brace and bumper have been replaced, but cleanly done to look original

– Motor is seized, but no visible cracks in typical areas

– Four combat rims that originally came with the Jeep. The red civilian rim on the front driver-side is not included

– The previous owner had the spare tire mounted on the rear passenger side. He welded a piece of pretty good chunk of metal for support. Fortunately, the original sheet metal is still underneath it. Cut, grind down, primer and paint . . . and it’s good to go.

– Original pair of SEELITE bulbs. The topbow I purchased at Tower Park earlier this year. The seller told me it’s a repro, but it sure does have a nice patina. Other than that, EVERYTHING on the Jeep is original”

UPDATE:  **SOLD** Was $9000

(05/06/2012) “I have a 1945 Jeep MB for sale. It has everything right with it and it has everything wrong with it. By that I mean that most components show wear, but they are all there in the original form. Most are the original to the Jeep. The engine, frame, body, and trans #’s match and most other components are the original that came with the vehicle, even the horn. Its got a little rust in the common areas, but the body is the one that came from the factory. Of course there are replacement parts but they are high quality reproductions. The tires are virtually new NDT (~100 miles) and the wheels are split rims. The jeep is not “modified” or “modernized”. It is a good example of an original vehicle, perfect for someone who wants to just drive it or totally restore it.
If you are interested, I can send some photos. Price $ 9000.+ depending on response to ad.
Thank you,
Alex”

UPDATE: **SOLD** Was on eBay.

This looks good.

“For sale is an original 1942 military Willy’s Jeep – see scanned documents

– A little history – This was a Naval Jeep stationed in Rhode Island and was sold to the Town of Warren Rhode Island on October 15th 1953. It was then sold to the first civilian owner. This jeep was purchased from this owner’s family in 2002. Please see the attached original documents of these transactions.

This Jeep was thoroughly restored from the frame up by Russell’s Military Vehicles of Cairo, Georgia, USA, a member of the MVPA. The electrical system has been converted to 12 volt. The Jeep starts and runs great! All of the gears work, and it shifts easily. This jeep is in great condition for driving around or just looking at!”

This classic war jeep was rebuilt from the frame up in both Texas and at the highly respected Northland Diesel in Bellingham, Washington. The engine was worked from the crankshaft up, and the transmission, transfer case, and differentials were likewise inspected and rebuilt as required. Items include a new wiring harness, tires on combat wheels, rebuilt carburetor, new seats and paint. In fact every item put back into service with this classic vehicle has been inspected and brought to standard. The owner’s intention was to have this vehicle look and perform like the day it was issued back in 1944. Receipts are available.

This vehicle has well over $28,000.00 invested in purchase and restoration, and is truly a showroom classic.

Also available and reasonably priced are an all-weather top, sides, and rigid doors from Beachwood Canvas (new @ $1350.00in original box), a set of five new road wheels on combat rims (cost new $1370.00) and other original equipment.”
