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

Seller is parting out. It has no title. It has been partly disassembled.

Hello Craigslist, I’m parting out my 1943 jeep Willys GPW. I show pictures of it together, but as it sits the tub is removed from the chassis. I’ll list an assortment of parts below, but feel free to let me know if you are looking for a specific part and I’ll see if maybe I have it. No title is for sale. My name is Seth, and you can reach me by calling or texting me at show contact info This is a running and driving jeep here aside from a transmission, so I would like to sell it as a parts vehicle if possible. The transmission that was in it was a TH350 and it is all set to drop one in if you have one. I have a lot of pictures, so just let me know what you would like to see more of and I can email or text them to you. 

-Original GPW frame/chassis (Shows spots of original OD green)
-Rear Dana 44 Axle
-Front Dana 20 Axle
-Willys tub/Body (appears to be an m38 style as the ax and shovel cut out are on the passenger side of body
-Original Dana Spicer 18 T-Case (Shows some original OD Green Paint)
-Dana 18 to TH350 Novak adaptor
-Solid Running Buick 231 V6 Engine. Currently has air compressor on it via york style. I just changed the spark plugs and air filter on it about a month ago, and the engine will start and run just fine.
-33×12.5 tires (four of them)

Shoot me an offer if you are interested in a part, but please be reasonable.”

1945 Willys Jeep. 
This is an awesome little jeep. It was made during the WWII era, but never was shipped over seas. These jeeps will climb anything and are rare and hard to find.

Needs a transfer case, engine ran when it was parked over 20 yrs ago. Requires plenty of work, but has all the pieces with it. I only have a bill of sale”

Another GPW Saved ….

1943 GPW before its restoration.

1943 GPW after its restoration.

Here’s a 1943 GPW that I featured on eWillys back in 2010. It was rough and had a funky windshield. I was sure it was headed for a car crusher.

Instead, someone bought this off of ebay and restored it! Mario, now the proud owner, purchased this from the rebuilder and was looking through eWillys when he stumbled upon the original post from 2010. So, here’s the original post on eBay, plus the after photos. If anyone knows any more history about this GPW, please let Mario know by commenting below the post. Thanks!

“Up for auction is a 1943 Military syle Ford Jeep.  Once owned by Edward White who I was told was a Military Commander.  Clean Title. Vehicle has been sitting for a number of years and is in need of full restore.  Engine has been pulled and disassembled but looks to be complete and comes with Vehicle.  Drivers side has a couple bullet holes for authenticity.  Body has rust but can be replaced with reproduction style, which can be purchased online.  Engine may be able to be rebuilt however I was told you can purchase military surplus crate motor but haven’t researched enough to tell you where.  Engine number on Title matches number etched on block ( GPW98036 )while the engine casting number is GPW-6015.”
