UPDATE: **SOLD** $5000. Now here.

Looks like a solid GPW with one major modification: the steering box. Though the steering looks unusual, on the plus side it’s got a thick (half-inch??) support plate coming off the frame; also, it seems to have held up well (given, I imagine, this was an older mod). An additional plus is that the builder didn’t cut the front cross member when updating the steering (or so it appears), so I imagine someone could restore the original steering if they wished relatively easily. I think it would make a good entry level GPW for the right person.

“1942 Ford WW2 GPW. New cooling system, ignition system, fuel system, electrical wiring front to back, seats, rear brakes, etc. Has an engine from a cj2a. The engine overheated at some point and cracked. Will need a new block. I’m reluctantly selling it. I’ve spent alot of money and time on this Jeep. It is the perfect restoration project for someone who wants to disassemble it and restore it from frame up. Most of the parts are already there. It needs a proper restoration. I’m asking $6000 and it has a clear title. The price is in consideration of the engine work needed.”

UPDATE: Still Available. Might be located near Dana Point.

(0913/2019) It’s a project.

Set of 4 combat wheels.
Willys flathead L134 turns freely. Needs rbld. May run as is.
This motor is not orig to this jeep. It is a willys cj2a engine.
If u dont want it. Ill jeep it and take off 300.

I have the inner window frame and a few parts and pieces. It will need some parts and some love to complete. But its already od green.

I have all the paperwork needed to reg it. I have the papers from last owner and i got the vehicle verification already to go. Just need to go to dmv and pay and I am not going to go pay dmv fees until i am ready to get it running but that wont be anytime soon. So there it will sit unless it sells.

Price is firm. And is fair. I may take a trade but id rather have cash.”

UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $3800.

This has been sitting a while.

(08/28/2019) An old GPW that’s still going.

“This Ford gpw has been customized but is most all original runs great but as of recently I am having trouble with the starter.”

I like the idea of having the fluid lids red. Sure makes them standout.
