1942-gpw-albany-ny01

“I bought this GPW for the original top bows that it had and because she is a driver.  I will provide a bill of sale only, no title.  Due to that fact, I’m selling it as a parts jeep.  I planned to part it out but have decided to sell it as is since she’s a runner and I’m sure the right person can enjoy it for what it is.   If I don’t sell it I will use it around my property to move stuff around.  It appears to be a radio jeep due to four mounting holes on the fender well in the rear driver side by the tool box.   It also appears to have had a machine gun due to the four holes on the floor where the machine gun mount on the frame is.  The frame is decent with vin that matches the glove box. Engine is an MB engine.  Original paint can be seen where the civilian paint has been pressure washed off in many places.  The early windshield in the picture was removed but I have another early windshield with brass latches that will be included.   It will however need some repair.

1942 GPW Lakeport, CA **SOLD**

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

UPDATE: **SOLD** This is an early GPW sold on eBay.

“this Ford GPW was the 10,584th GPW built, and is one of the last ones made with a Willys frame. It has just been completely restored and has only four miles on it, it runs good but is some missing items like seat cushions, filterette, pioneer tools, oil can, canvas top, one J hook and some of the radio suppression straps. Most of the big parts are original and correct, and it has the original floorpans though they have been patched a little and the fuel tank well was replaced. The significant reproduction items on the jeep are the rear seat, spare tire rack, front bumper, air cleaner, horn, speedometer, oil/temp/amp gauges and data plates. Fenders, hood, windshield, fuel tank, front seats, radiator, grille, regulator, generator, fuel strainer and starter are original. The battery is new but not an antique style, it also has either period or new bolts in about three dozen places there should be F marked bolts, other than that this jeep is very correct. The jeep is registered non-op and has California plates and a clear title, it also comes with the original speedometer that should be repairable. The headlight switch is an original and has been not working correctly, it may have to be replaced if I can’t fix it in the next few days.

The tires are the repop Firestones, and all of the rims are original combat type, I do have a couple more radio suppression straps that are not in the photos that were installed later under the hood.

This is you chance to get one of the rarest GPWs made, in nice shape and ready for parades, reenactments or with some modest amount of parts and work a factory show jeep. If you have questions or would like more photos please ask, thanks for looking!”

1942 GPW Wheeling, IL eBay

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

This is a project.

“Up for sale is Ford GPW 75591, DOD October 1942. I hate to sell this but I have other projects that I’d like to tackle. This project is in disassembled condition, as seen in the pictures. Everything (except the combat rims) in the pictures is included*. And there may be more items that if I can dig up I will add in. *If you choose to “buy it now” I will pull the original GPW/F marked radiator from my Slat grill and add it in, along with the 5 brand new reproduction combat rims shown in the last picture.

The original GPW parts include the GPW numbered frame, axles, springs, original tub with original data plate (though difficult to read), original fenders, hood, seats, pedal arms, pedals, and fuel tank straps. The following came with this GPW when I purchased it. I am unsure if they are original to this jeep but they are period correct: steering box and column, transfercase and parking brake. I also have information about from which Ford factory this was produced and a rather accurate original hood number range.

The parts that are not original to this jeep, but original and correct F MARKED PARTS INCLUDE the green spare hood, pintle hook, headlight buckets and arms, bullet marker lights, splash shield, bellhousing, flywheel, large bellhousing cover, T-84 transmission, transfer case arms, grill, correct SG marked radiator fan, and extra Ford Script tub.

WWII jeep correct items include the windshield, reflector bezels, NOS boxed fender blackout bulb, taillight buckets, flat-bottomed oil filter, auto-lite distributor caps, thermostat housing, oil pan, green sheller steering wheel, fuel tank, and rebuilt like-new 1944 dated fuel pump.

1943 GPW San Francisco, CA $4300

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

This is a project. Note the combat rims.

“I have a 1943 Ford GPW Jeep. Just like a Willys MB but built by Ford. Original with all its correct Ford stamped parts. Correct seats, handles, brackets everything. Way too much to list. Has 5 restored Combat wheels with new tires included. Boxes and boxes of parts and spares. Numbers matching frame and data plate. Non matching but correct GPW motor currently apart for rebuild. Has later willys motor too. Decent body with a little rust and a hole cut for a 2a gas tank. Have correct gas tank now. Lots of parts have been collected for this restoration. Good frame. Rolling chassis with body still mounted. Nearly $2000 spent on wheels and tires already, just to give you an idea this in not a pile of junk.”
