1943 GPW Chassis Rexburg, ID **SOLD**

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

UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $1750.

This looks like a good price.

“(If you’re interested in this please call and leave a voice mail message with your name and location. I’ll call you back. Sorry, I don’t reply to texts. Thanks!)

Ford and Willys made WW2 Jeeps for the military. All parts were interchangeable. This is a Ford “GPW” chassis and has many Ford “F” script marks on it.
It has been sandblasted, primed and painted. It is clean and straight with no modifications.

The rectangular plate on top of the frame crossmember in front of the rear axle is the machine gun mount. All WW2 Jeeps came equipped with this mount.

I built it as a display to show “The Parts That Make A WW2 Jeep Go”. Many of the parts are numbered, a sign next to the display describes the parts. I also marked some of the “F” script marks with orange paint. It’s currently at a museum in Rexburg.

Use it as a display, as a great start to your WW2 Jeep project or as a replacement for your bent, rusted and modified frame.

The $1750 price is for the rolling chassis only. The engine, transmission and transfer case are not included in this price.

The price including engine, transmission and transfer case is $2500. The transmission and transfer case are Ford GPW, the engine is a later Willys Jeep engine, probably from the late ’40’s to early ’50’s. Engine, trans and transfer do not work and will need to be rebuilt.

No title, bill of sale only.
I can transport as far as Bozeman, Jackson Hole, Ogden or Twin Falls”

1943 GPW Kona, HI $3000

Those look like early solid disc rims to me.

“1943 Ford GPW (Jeep). Ford & Willy’s built them during WWII. New top w doors. Needs brake master rebuilt and new brake lines installed, I have the parts already. It runs great and the trans is in great shape, doesn’t pop out of gear which is a common issue with these old jeeps. No huge rust holes, in good shape for being in Hawaii for 70+ years.”

Has a few upgrades, but may be fairly stock.

“I have a 1944 Ford M1 A1 Jeep that runs great for $10,000 OBO. Has the original Flathead for cylinder motor, upgraded electrical to 12 volt system and rewired with upgraded fusees. I have the original generator system that came with it when we bought it and I left the old guess panel on the fire wall. Nice paint, custom wheels and tires and floating front axles which are stock and original. all but two gauges work. It’s a great little Jeep and a lot of fun to taking parades. Need the room got to get it out of the garage!”

1942 GPW Citrus Heights, CA **Status Unknown**

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

UPDATE: **Status Unknown** was $5000.

(09/17/2017) Looks like a cj head rather than a military one.

“1942 original Ford Jeep GPW military jeep. Original engine, tranny (4×4) body, glass, top, etc. (wheels and seats not original) parked it running in a storage unit in 2002 and it’s been there ever since (it was put on non-op, no back fees). Still has the same fluids, so definitely need to swap all that out. No leaks. I don’t know much about it other than it ran when it went in and it hasn’t been touched ever since. The original wood hood has some peeling at the front, the rest of the body is straight. No dents dings chipped paint, nothing like that. Tires still have air in them. Spare on back. I pushed on the clutch and shifted through the gears just fine, and that’s all I know. Let the pictures do the rest of the talking.”

Maybe someone can use this?

“Came off late 1942 GPW. Tub has several solid straight panels. Dash, cowl and firewall all straight but dash has some extra holes. Fenders need inner support brackets and some minor patching but appear straight and never dented. Hood also straight. Glove box door is straight and has left and right info plates but they were painted over. Glove Box is solid and straight and button appears original but is frozen up.”

Joe-in-Mesa, think Jan will agree to a plow jeep? You’ll be prepared in case it snows 🙂
