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 cj 2a jeep willys up for trade or sale. Looking for best offer or nice sport quads. Needs a battery, and maybe little wiring done to it to get it to run. A little restore was done on it 10+ years ago, Sat out in the weather for a few years. I picked it up from a buddy’s dad. Minimal surface rust but no bad spots at all. Motor turns over but has no spark. Needs a good home. Bill of sale only. Needs to be taken to WSP for a vin inspection to get title. I did most of the home work on that issue and it’s pretty simple.”
