UPDATE:  **SOLD** Was $3000

(03/28/2010) This has a few updates.

“We aren’t too sure of what exact year it is but we did find out that it could be in between the years of 41-51 body style. The engine we know was taken out of another jeep a little newer then the body. Its an F-head with the valve cover on top so it was taken out of a jeep from the years 53-63. We found that it’s very common for people to switch out the engines from that year because it’s better performance.

The jeep has very little rust and all of it is surface rust that we can find. It doesn’t have a transmission unfortunately or i would be driving it. i have a magazine that sells parts for jeeps and we found a transmission for it and it would only cost about 1500 dollars which isn’t bad for this old of a jeep. I would fix it up myself but i don’t have money and i really need a vehicle. Right now it’s an open title. I want to sell for $3000 OBO”

It looks like the driver’s side body has been cut out a bit.

UPDATE:  Brian picked this up today.  He reports it has a near perfect GPW body with a MB frame. The engine has a Ford head with a 2a or 3a block. It has a T84. It came with a 3a windshield.

This appears to be sagging a bit.  The body doesn’t appear too bad, but can’t tell for sure.

“Bought to restore and lost interest….. Great for restoring! Has only one rust hole on the side”

UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $500.

Brett forwarded this Ad.  There might be some value here, but this thing has seen some tough love (and I’m not talking the good kind).

“1943 Jeep. Has a swapped in 283 from a corvette. I bought this as a project and have had no time to work on it. The previous owner claimed that it ran when he parked it, but had a problem with the clutch and had to be started in gear to move it. It has a towbar attached and can be towed locally easily. Please Email or text for info.”

UPDATE: Still Available.

(04/17/2010) This is a project.  Maytown … where the heck is Maytown? I had to look that one up.

“It is complete, but needs to be put back together. It has a clear title. It has two Chevrolet 4.3 liter V6 motors. One is carbureted, the other is fuel injected.

It has a rebuilt T90 3 speed transmission (needs oil added). It has new seats. It has new fuel cell. The body has surface rust, but is solid. It has extra fenders, hoods, and grills”
