(07/07/2010) “This is 1945 willes army jeep its all original has 34.744 miles on it asking 14,000 cal.”

It’s not entirely stock, but looks solid.

“For your consideration is my 1942 Willys MB Army Jeep.  I restored this Jeep several years ago and it gets used very little so I have decided to part with it.  When restoring the Jeep I took the body off of the frame and installed new brakes (wheel cylinders, pads, master cylinder, brake lines) and painted the frame.  I also undercoated the body.  The engine is a flat head four cylinder but I am not sure it is original to the Jeep.  I was told it was probably a little later model engine and that it had been gone through.  The only thing I have done to the engine was to install new plugs, wires, distributer cap, rotor, etc.  I also had the carb rebuilt and converted the Jeep to a 12 volt system with new electrical wiring.  The engine sounds very good and does not smoke or use oil.  The transmission and transfer case do work.  I had the transmission rebuilt and it works well but it is sometimes difficult to get into second gear.  It seems to be getting better with use.  All gages are in good working order and the speedometer is new.  The seats have been recovered as can be seen in the pictures.  I also installed a new correct fuel tank and the Jeep has new tires on it.  This Jeep is missing very little to make it complete.  I do not have a top or top bows, what you see in the pics is what I have.”
