1944 GPW Roanoke, VA **SOLD**
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was on eBay.
This GPW is for sale by Matt at Edmund Angelus Automotive (view some of his work here). Matt has done some fabulous flattie rebuilds.
“Item up! A ’44 Gpw. This is an ALL NUMBERS MATCHING unit!!! This unit also has less than 26-k original miles and under the hood it is very much in tact. If you are a PUREST, or not,k and looking for a GPW to restore, it does not get much better than this. Believe it or not, i am having a bit of separation anxiety about selling this one. This one is my baby, the one i spent Two Years trying to buy from the previous owner. You Know the type, Hords of Jeep parts, yet you have to approach them with a Lunar Lunatic Shemelment on Just so you appear to be from their same dimension. The only problem is returning to the real world with the part or said jeep. The motor does run! It will move under its own power. The cons are as follows….”
1946 CJ-2A Canon City, CO **SOLD**
This is certainly a beautiful CJ-2A. However, it’s not fully restored to original condition. One of the obvious issues is the CJ-3A windshield it sports.
“Fully restored to original except for 12 Volt vice original 6 Volt system. $10,000 OBO. The Willys CJ2A was the first mass-produced Jeep intended for the civilian market, began production on July 17, 1945. Civilian Jeeps evolved from the model MB of World War Two fame.”
1948 CJ-2A Newark, OH **SOLD**
“This is a really cool Willys! If you like theme vehicles, this is set up as a civil defense vehicle. Popular back in the sixties. It appears to be all original engine, drivetrain etc. Starts right up and runs good and shifts like it should through the gears. It has like new tires, beauty rims, new battery and ignition switch, new shocks, a really nice tow bar for flat towing and it has lockout hubs so you don’t need to bring a trailer! All lights and turn signals work, including the red flashing emergency light on the fender. It has an ammo box between the seats where a radiation detector is stored. I don’t know if it works or not….”

1944 GPW Connersville, IN **SOLD**
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was on eBay.
It doesn’t look too bad in the pics, but the seller suggests it is ready for a complete restoration.
“This is a 1944 Ford GPW WWII Jeep, serial #232700, with matching Ford engine numbers; there are many Ford script parts on this Jeep . It appears to be all original and is in need of a complete restoration. Jeep was painted several years ago by previous owner and bondo and sheetmetal work was done sub standard. Bondo is chipping from metal and needs to be blasted off – also all floors have been patched and cut on and a civilian gas can was installed at one time and has now been removed.

1947 CJ-2A Redding, CA **SOLD**
This is a beautiful build, but the price will scare a lot of buyers away. A tilt front flattie is certainly rare enough to warrant posting.

Last Ride: 194? MB/GPW Mailbox — Secaucas, NJ
UPDATE: I suspect this jeep is on it’s last ride. It’s now a mailbox.
A reader submitted this unusual find. Yes, the seller of this old jeep somehow used it as a mailbox (I think the mailbox is on the back of the jeep), though technically I’d argue the jeep is more of a mailbox pole. While I firmly believe that the jeep has earned the reputation as one of the most modified vehicles in history, the use of a jeep as a mailbox pole is particularly rare.
“Willys jeep. Military, of about 1944. No engine, no trans, no papers, but lots of rust. For a long time I used this old jeep as a mail box; if you buy it, I won’t be getting bills anymore. For $400., you can be sure that your bills will find their way to your door.”

1942 MB Slatgrille Holcombe, Wi **SOLD**
Here’s a slatgrille MB out of Wisconsin. It appears in good shape.
“I bought this jeep in 2000 from Houston TX and had it shipped to Wisconsin where I had it restored. I have invested $14,000 into this vehicle but willing to part with it for less…. I am not a jeep expert by any means, but I believe this jeep is largely origional with a few exceptions… It has been upgraded to a 12 volt system, and the windshield is not original. Like a lot of old jeeps, it does drip a few drops of oil after driving, but this jeep looks and drives GREAT! I do not have a top for the jeep. I do not have a title, and this will be sold with a bill of sale only. Please dont hesitate to ask me with any questions you may have.”
1946 CJ-2A Fargo, ND **SOLD**

Year? CJ-3A Kansas City, Mo $600
Given the windshield appears in good shape, I’d say this is a good price for this parts jeep.
‘rebuilt carb, new head gasket, needs distributer and should run. the tub is pretty rusty but other than that it is pretty decent for use off road or parts. Might consider partial trade for a stick welder, oxy-fuel torch or other welding equipment. “
1950 CJ-3A Stearns, Ky $1400
Despite what the seller writes, it looks like there’s more than a little rust on this body. But, if the rust isn’t too bad, then this might be a decent price.
“I am selling a 1950 Willys CJ3 for my father. He bought it and did a little work to it but doesnt have the time to restore it(or sell it). It has a clear KY title.

The Good: runs, drives, brakes work(enough anyway), new alternator, new battery, replaced radiator, new exhaust from the manifold back, tow bar, extra carburator, very little rust(for a 59 year old jeep). The Bad: carburator floods sometimes when you first start it(once its going it goes though), brakes need work(but they will stop you).

1943 GPW Pottstown, Pa eBay
It’s a good looking GPW.
“Originally purchased privately in January of 1983 in Heightstown, New Jersey. Has been garage kept since purchase, and believed to have been prior to also. It was primarily used for parades, re-enactments and static displays. Entire body and interior is original, including seat covers, ID plates, and windshield. Body was stripped down and repainted. Some additional body work and mechanical work required to get into show condition. Still has 6 volt system, may need new wiring harness. Generator rebuilt in late 1980’s.
