This is a package deal. Is that Ford truck worth $30k?

Year? GPW Chico, CA $12,000

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

Supposedly, this was used in the M*A*S*H* TV series. I guess it’s possible. Interesting that the driver side indents are missing. Looks like it has a GPW crossmember.

Early 1942 GPW Kingman, AZ $17,900

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

Includes a trailer. Pics aren’t very big. This is GPW #7474. It has a Willys frame. Sounds like the seller has had to explain this too many times.

https://mohave.craigslist.org/cto/d/wwii-ww2-jeep-willys-bantam/6497307846.html

“WW2 1942 rare jeep this is NOT the common ww2 jeep this is a ford script with a Willits frame THAT WAS BUILT THAT WAY! from the factory serial number is 7474 it has crank to start,bocycle pump under rear seat,brass fire extinguisher,repro 50 caliber that is amazing not one of those cheap plastic wood aluminum trash looking machine guns too much to list. Usmc ww2 trailer will be thrown in if you want it TEXT show contact info

I have received emails that ford did not use Williys frames from uneducated people! Please note it is well documented and also on page 192 of the all American wonder volume 2 book it states that there is no doubt this happened and that my jeep is AMONG THE RAREST of jeep variants! Jeeps with a serial number below 8000 (mine is 7474 ) were built using willys frames in order to get production rolling for the war effort also windshield hinges and data plates are solid brass the Willy frame was however stamped like the Ford’s with a star 7474 then a star, so please you people who think you know educate yourselves thank you.”

1942 GPW Greenville, SC **SOLD**

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

UPDATE: Was $15,500.

All proceeds from the sale of this jeep will go to a military history museum. Maybe it is related to this new history museum? Unfortunately, the GPW has some changes, including a VEC windshield, altered wiring, extra braces on the bumper, incorrect bumper, missing hood latch, and probably some filler on the passenger side behind the step.The glove box is also “missing”.  I’d look this one over carefully.

“Original body that has the Ford script stamped on rear panel. Serial #28563 (manufactured in May or June of 1942). 6-volt electrical system. 13 gallon tank capacity. Front headlights pivot upwards for airfield use. Tool compartments above each rear wheel (both have rust damage). Flat fenders, Gerry can and spare tire mounted on rear, pioneer tools mounted on drivers side. Jeep has been partially restored. The transmission was rebuilt 2 years ago an windshield has been replaced. Canvas seats are in excellent condition. The glove box is missing and some non-original holes in dash. A trailer is also available to go with the Jeep for an additional $750. The Jeep was a show stopper in a recent Armed Forces parade. The Jeep is currently on display in a Military History Museum and has not been run for approximately 5 months, however it ran great before putting it in the Museum. All proceeds for the sale of the Jeep will go to the Military History Museum.”
