UPDATE: Still Available

(11/12/2014) It’s been in the family for a while.

“It is not a stock motor… I do know it’s a V6. I have the top frame.. Seen in the photos leaning next to the jeep on the right.

The radiator hose is off and the fan is off. It needs a battery and fan belt, radiator hoses. Plus it looks like the passenger side wheel bearing is leaking and needs repaired.

My dad had a mechanic working on it. My dad past away. The mechanic told me he did get it running. I am not able to check it myself.

One side is cracked on the windshield. I am asking $7500. I will accept the best offer I get.

It is located in Oakridge. It is inside out of the weather. It has been kept inside
since my dad got it over 40 years ago.

If you’d like to make an appointment to take a look you can reach me on my cell. I will return your call if you leave a message.”

1945 MB Clinton, MA **SOLD**

UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $2000.

There looks to be value here.

“1945 Willys MB, ford 4cyl motor out of a 72 ford pinto, original t89 transmission, had it running, driving and stopping in the summer but the gas tank is disconnected at the moment. This Willys is solid but has seen its fair share of work in the past 70 years. Gas tank well and rear fender compartments are rotted everything else is solid. Front and rear bumpers are lally columns. There is NO TITLE and I do not believe it was ever titled it has been on a farm in MA since mid 70s and at a bear camp in Maine prior to that.”

1944 Article on Jeep Testing at Washington State College

In July 1943 the Ordnance Department released a jeep to the Washington State College (now University) for farm testing. A year later the College produced a bulletin titled “The Jeep as a Farm Truck-Tractor for the Post-War Period.” Unfortunately, I couldn’t find a copy of that document online. But there’s a hard copy at the WSU library (which is only a couple hours from me). Anyone have copy of that?

In August of 1944 the Spokesman Review published this article based on the information.
