1942 Slat MB Lahaina, Maui, Hi **Status Unknown**

• CATEGORIES: MB • TAGS: , , This site contains affiliate links for which I may be compensated.

UPDATE: Was $15750 **Status Unknown**

(04/29/2010) I’m a little surprised the seller doesn’t mention this is a Slat Grille.  This doesn’t have the in-dash jockey box.

“The vehicle has been restored. It is very nice, runs great. Registration and Safety just renewed. It has too many improvements to list. Located on Maui in Lahaina. I am willing to take serious offers.”

Year? MB/GPW Pacifica, Ca Make Offer

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

I’ve seen lots of ‘hood bumps, but never anything like this.  That said, the body appears in good shape.  Given where the handle bar is located on the dash, I’m wondering if this is an early body that doesn’t have the glove box?

“i have a 41 willys jeep was looking for a aluminum boat with a motor and trailer but lets see what you got open to options”

3 CJ-5s and 1 MB Coney Island, Ny $5000

• CATEGORIES: CJ5, MB • TAGS: This site contains affiliate links for which I may be compensated.

A reader spotted this unusual deal.  That MB looks solid and appears stock.  The seller incorrectly lists the MB as a M-38.  This seller is also selling a Jeepster.

“4 Willys Jeeps For Sale. All Jeeps run good and have the original engines. One is a 1961 Willys Jeep set up for a service station with a steel plow and complete hydraulic plow package. The second is also from the early 1960’s and set up for a service station, and has a hydraulic plow hook-up. The third Jeep is also from the early 1960’s and has a hydraulic plow hook-up. The last Jeep is a 1950 or 1951 M-38 Military Jeep. All four Jeeps are complete and they all have some rot and rust. All four Jeeps are ready for restoration. I’m moving and can’t take these vehicles with me. $5,000.00 or best offer for all four Jeeps or make an offer for each Jeep separately. No e-mails please. Call (347) 203-9631.”

UPDATE:  Still Available and pics now provided.

(04/16/2010) “Military Jeep for sale. Yes it runs! Working motor, running gear, transmission. I have video of it being driven around our yard if you are interested. I hate getting rid of it but we have too many projects going on after buying a house. Don’t want to see this rust away.

Has:
1942 Ford GPW frame, hood, windshield, grill, and other misc parts (all still have their F stamp visible)
1945 Military engine (running) with new fuel pump
1946 Willy’s tub and transmission

Needs:
– seats
– fuel tank (we just put the fuel line into a gas tank when we run it)
– drive shaft (it fell out when we flat towed it to our new place)
– tires (2 are flat though they’ll hold air long enough to tow it home or put it up on a trailer)

We sanded all the old paint off of it and it is primer gray but we never got further than that.
I have pics on a different computer. I’ll post them soon.Please note we do not have a title for it, it will be bill of sale only. According to the CHP you just need to get a VIN verification done on it (simple as bringing it down to the CHP office) and DMV will then issue title and registration.”
