UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $2000.

“I am selling two Jeep forward controls, one is a 1960, it is in very rough condition, but it is all there. It is blue, has a 3 speed manual trans, 4 cylinder engine, I have ran it on starting fluid, and it even has a sunroof (not factory). I bought it last year as a project, but I would rather sell it and put the money towards another project that I have.
I also have a second FC 150 I bought for parts. It is a 1957, green, only has a cab, no bed, the frame was cut right behind the rear axle, so it is no good. But almost everything in front of the rear axle is there. Both windshields are broken, and a couple of the door windows are also broken, but I have good glass for the back three windows. Both are 12 volt, and neither of them have titles, green cab has a vin plate, but blue one doesn’t. Let me know if you have any questions. Not splitting them up”

Unclear if it runs or not. Might have some interesting history. Sounds like it could be a project.

“1957 Willy’s Jeep Wagon 4×4
It was originally a Weyco surveyors rig.
It was stored in a heated garage for over 40 years prior to me getting it.
It has a 6 cylinder engine with a 6 volt charging system.
Original paint.
It’s all there and waiting to be restored.
I’m asking $8000 OBO.
Not interested in trades.”

The Gypsy Rose Lee Jeep is a stripped down version of the regular jeep for airborne troops (one of a variety developed). Made of “plastic plywood”, it was almost a 1,000lbs lighter than the standard 2,200lb jeep. You might also know the jeep as the MB-L. This article, of which the Gypsy Rose Lee was a part, was published in the December 1947 issue of Willys Overland Unity Magazine.
