“This is a 1942 Ford GPW
Mostly original
Many F-stamped bolts
Ford script body
F-stamped transmission transfer case and head with a civilian block.
Runs, drives, and stops
Springs sag, wiring not good, body not perfect.
Bought from the Dragon Man with the intention of rebuilding it.
I fixed the tranny – got it running and started driving it.
However, my neighbor, who is a big time antique hoarder, urges me to stop working on it. “First rule when obtaining a collectable antique is you don’t touch, don’t paint it, nothing. It will ruin it. Even if somebody did something to it incorrectly before you.”
So I am doing my duty to my country by offering this up to any so called collector.

I am open to good offers! Otherwise, I can go back to the only part of the house I can somewhat think of as mine… where my hammer, saw, and torch are ready to get back to work and I’ll have a clear conscious that at least I tried to do the right thing.”

Not sure how much value is here.

“this is a 1945 ford gpw just like a jeep willys mb, this is a project, its 2wd and is set up for a small block chevy, and auto transmission, i believe it was a dune runner at some point, no engine or trans, body is i fair condition, has cage, locked Dana 44 rear axle and a mail jeep straight front axle, clear oregon title, I was gonna build a little hot rod buggy but have too many projects and not enough room, asking 750 or best offer, text is best, possible trades, no drugs”

Zach spotted this great, funky jeep. Listed as a 1952, it appears to be a GPW based on the front crossmember. Given it runs, it looks like a great price.

“I have two WW2 Ford GPW Jeep projects for sale.

1. 1943 Ford GPW rolling chassis and body. Frame will need repairs, body very rough. Frame number and body number match. No engine or trans included, however I have non working F script trans and transfer I will include at additional cost. This would be a good candidate for a replacement body. Clear Idaho title in my name. $1000.

2. 1945 Ford GPW restored chassis and replacement body, including front fenders. Includes F script transmission and bell housing. This has been a running Jeep. I am keeping the engine and wheels pictured for another project, but I have wheels and tires for it. This is a very nice looking Jeep and would be an easy project to complete. Clear Idaho title in my name. $5000.”

https://goldcountry.craigslist.org/cto/d/1942-ford-gpw-willys/6678329009.html

“I have a 1942 Ford GPW. I’ve owned it for around 18 years and it’s time for it to go. It has a flathead 6 cylinder that I’m told might be a studebaker. It ran about 2 years ago and I just topped driving it around because the brakes didn’t work. It’s currently non-op reg status with dmv. According to the data plates it was born on November 10th, 1942. Serial number 80041, which most likely puts it out of the ford plant in Richmond, Ca.”

Runs.

“1942 Ford Arny Jeep. 5000.00 OBO

Hasn’t been started in 10 years. It’s listed as a 1952, but looks to most likely a GPW with a CJ-2A grille and CJ hood.
