1943 MB Chico, Ca $3500

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

This looks solid at first glance, however it is missing the steps, suggesting that the body needs closer inspection.

1940? Model? Southwest Iowa $450

• CATEGORIES: CJ-2A, MB This site contains affiliate links for which I may be compensated.

UPDATE:  Lester reports this *might* be a scam, as 936 is a Texas area code rather than a Iowa code. Of course, cell numbers are so portable, of which I’m a perfect example (I have a cali area code), that it’s not a definitive sign.

No pics.  The seller will text a pic. I’m gonna guess this is either a MB/GPW or CJ-2A.

“It needs some work. Its seventy years old. The body is in good shape for the age. It has the origanal engine, trany, as far as I know. Can send pic text. Call or text Joel 936-230-4650”

Sgt. Richard A. Penry, Congressional Medal of Honor Memorial Military Museum

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

Located in Petaluma, California, The Richard Penry Medal of Honor Memorial Military Museum appears to have two Willys.  One is well restored (though I have a question) and the Second one is part of a diorama and tipped on its side.

Here’s the first, a Slat Grille MB.  These images are from Wikipedia.  My question is … isn’t that front cross member from a GPW and not a MB? Or am I missing something?

The back of this MB:

Here’s the tipped over Willys.  I couldn’t find a better pic of this.

1942 Slat Grille MB Las Vegas, Nv **SOLD**

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

UPDATE: **SOLD** was on eBay.

“You are bidding on a great restoration project.  I am thinning my collection because I have a few other rare vehicles that I’m in the process of restoring so some toys must go.  This is a 42 slat grill that is very restorable.  Original hood numbers can be seen.  It does have rust in the usual places such as front floors, fuel tank and driver side panel but the frame is very solid.  Both front bumper and rear crossmember are in excellent condition which is very rare and hard to find.  The tail panel has never been messed with and is in great shape.  All gauges appear original.  The jeep comes with a complete MB motor but it is not original to the car as the vin is very high.  The data tags are long gone but the original frame tag is still on the frame.  I do have two original front seats that will go with the jeep.  Brass windshield clamps, filterette, front seat are all correct.  I do have four early GPW’s on Willys frame that will be on ebay soon as well as two more slat grills.  I will except offers through ebay for our mutual protection”

1945 MB San Luis Obispo, Ca eBay (scam?)

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

UPDATE: A reader contacted me about this Jeep.

He wrote, “The same jeep was listed some time ago and I contacted the seller. Long story short he sends out fake invoices from a know eBay scam address (email is listed on eBay’s security page as scam) I nearly fell for it but luckily did my homework before sending the money!”

Despite the $8000 price listed at ebay, the “actual price” is $35,000 and can be seen here: http://www.fbcollectorcars.com/1945_Willys_MB_Jeep.html

So, buyers beware …..

“This is a low mileage original 1945 Willys MB Jeep. I bought this Jeep from the original family in 2005. It was in a heated storage area for the last 35 years. I am the second owner of this fine piece.

This MB still has all original canvas seats cushions, crash pads, door straps, original data plates and the original windshield glass (with dates). The Jeep also has all (5) of its original Goodyear tires with the synthetic S3 markings. This is one of the nicest untouched MB’s.

Safety Door Straps
ORD Tire Pump Mounted under the Rear Seat
Hand Crank Mounted behind the Rear Seat
