“For sale is this 1942 Willys jeep. This was inherited in a trust and I don’t have the time or space to bring it up to its full potential. these things are valued at $20,000 and even higher when fully restored. This one has a Buick v-6 engine, 4wd manual transmission. Sat in storage for 10 or more years, and now it’s time for the right person to put the rubber back on the road. asking $3000 but open for all offers. Must sell before property sells so bring offers to the table.”

GPW in the National Auto Museum in Torino, Italy

Barry went on a recent trip to Torino, Italy. There, he visited Italy’s National Auto Museum, where he spotted this Ford GPW. It was only one of three US vehicles in the museum.

He added, “Jeep is a big name in Italy since acquired by Fiat. From the marker it looks like they are trying to associate this with the modern “Jeep” name. Excellent display of over 200 European autos dating back to the late 1800’s”

If the ad is up, they are still available.
No trades. There is no bottom dollar, make an offer.”
