1945 GPW Alvin, TX **SOLD**

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

UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $1900.

(01/11/2016) Has no title and needs work.

“I bought this 1945 Ford built GPW WWII Jeep, not all that long ago to restore. After putting much thought into it, I’ve decided to sell it and buy another one that is already restored. This Jeep has a rebuilt engine that runs great. I’ve driven it around the field where it is stored, but not on the street, because the brakes are down. Although the engine is rebuilt, the rest of the Jeep needs complete and total restoration. It is FAR from ready to drive down the highway. The engine and transmission are out of a later model civilian WILLYS Jeep and not a Ford built Jeep. Someone had cut out the rear panel and made a tailgate. I recently bought a brand new repair panel to fix the tail of the Jeep. This is not an easy restoration and the body is VERY rusty like most WWII Jeeps. It comes with a far less rusty windshield frame. The Jeep does have lots of Ford “F”s stamped on it and it has the original Ford body vin tag. It does NOT have a title.”

1942 GPW Williamsburg, KY **SOLD**

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

UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $950.

(12/20/2015) It’s a project.

“For Sale or Trade: This is a WWII GPW Ford Script Jeep manufactured on May 11, 1942 with a low production number. It has survived with it’s serial number and instruction plates still intact and will have a clean Kentucky Classic Car title. We just pulled it out of the weeds and don’t have it cleaned out yet, so I’m not sure what parts are there or if the serial numbers match. It does roll and steer and seems pretty solid. There is body damage just below the “Ford” script area, but I believe a good sheet metal fabricator could repair it. The metal is basically solid all around the tub. The floor pans are bad, I would say. As you can see in the pictures, there are small “fender skirts” over the rear wheels. These are very solid and appear to be factory but could be an add on. The dash and instrument gauges are intact and look pretty good. I’ll add more info and upgrade the pictures when we get it cleaned up. Asking $1450 for this unusual find…..Would love to see this rare piece of U.S. military history from the Great Generation restored to its war-time glory and rolling down Main Street America in a 4th of July parade!”

“Flatfender MB/GPW Jeep. Flathead 4 cyl L134 Engine. Some mods, some stock, great running little jeep. New brakes–Less than 500 miles. Classic vehicle with nice options looking for a new home.

Here’s another “all original” that isn’t quite so. Looks like a GPW bumper, but the crossmember looks like a tube.

1942 GPW Fayetteville, AR **SOLD**

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

UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $2000.

Body’s been cut, but still some value here.

“1942 Military Jeep for sale. This vehicle doesn’t run but about a year ago we replaced the battery in it and it was clicking so I think it just needs a starter rebuild. I would have fixed this Jeep up myself but I have a truck project going on at the moment. The hole thing is there, transmition, motor, and all. Except for the glass. As you may know though that only includes the windshield. There are some small holes in the floor where I think someone tried to swap the tranny. They also welded a cow catcher grill to the front which could be easily removed with a cutting torch or smoothed down and painted if you wanted to keep it.

The body is in relatively good shape for its age other than the paneling over the back right fender seems to have been welded on aswell but nothing you couldn’t grind down. The seat frames are there but there are no cushions. Also, the previous owner cut a space in the back for a tailgate and they didn’t actually add one but it could be done and it would look really good. Like I said, I would have done these things already myself if it wasn’t for this other project I’m working on. There is no visible rust which is a miracle for this old of a vehicle. If you need something hauled these Jeeps were made to pull war planes so it’ll get the job done. I do need the money to help pay my way through mechanics school so the sooner this vehicle is gone, the better. It’s a solid vehicle and I truly believe it wild take surprisingly little to get it running. $2000 is firm but I will hear out any trades.”
