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.”

“Jeep frame off restore of the 1943 only got as far as the frame off, looking for interested individuals, divorce forces sale. Most parts are included, it needs little dodads like knobs and canvas. The Jeep ran when I drove it off of the tractor trailer that delivered it from Kansas, and once it was in the garage I got it down to the frame and sandblasted the frame partially and did some welding on the tub. The major parts I disposed of due to them being from a later version jeep are the windshield, seats, gas tank, and wheels and tires. The transfer case is from a GPW Ford version of the same period. Thanks for your interest.”
