UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $2500.
Needs work of some kind.
“MB Military Jeep. Needs restoration.”
UPDATE: Still Available and pics now provided.
(04/16/2010) “Military Jeep for sale. Yes it runs! Working motor, running gear, transmission. I have video of it being driven around our yard if you are interested. I hate getting rid of it but we have too many projects going on after buying a house. Don’t want to see this rust away.
Has:
1942 Ford GPW frame, hood, windshield, grill, and other misc parts (all still have their F stamp visible)
1945 Military engine (running) with new fuel pump
1946 Willy’s tub and transmission
Needs:
– seats
– fuel tank (we just put the fuel line into a gas tank when we run it)
– drive shaft (it fell out when we flat towed it to our new place)
– tires (2 are flat though they’ll hold air long enough to tow it home or put it up on a trailer)
We sanded all the old paint off of it and it is primer gray but we never got further than that.
I have pics on a different computer. I’ll post them soon.Please note we do not have a title for it, it will be bill of sale only. According to the CHP you just need to get a VIN verification done on it (simple as bringing it down to the CHP office) and DMV will then issue title and registration.”
UPDATE: **SOLD** was $2500
It kinda runs. I’d like to see a few more pics.
“1945 willys mb jeep. Shape is rough. It’s 65 years old so it is what it is. Rust on everything. Frame is solid. Engine is the old flat head. Runs…kinda. No brakes, the original master cyl leaked. I have a replacement but never put it on. Running gear all original old jeep stuff. Comes with the plates, and the tag on the frame. NO TITLE bill of sale only! This thing has been around. Weird things been welded to it, cut off..and customised….This is a project.”
This Texas hunter appears to be a MB to me.
“1948 Willys Jeep – Everything works, including 4WD. Posting for a friend that does not have an email account – Please call Chase if interested at 512.748.2798. Not interested in trading.”
I wonder if this isn’t actually a MB? Hard to tell for sure from the pics.
“have a willys jeep runs good has good tires. no title. will provide bill of sell. pics will be up later on today. call cody 5302307975”
UPDATE: This was a great price at $2000. It appears sold.
Brett spotted this one. With the plow setup and some good looking tires, this looks like a good price. The body doesn’t look all that bad to me.
“This is a 1942 Willey’s Jeep. It runs great and has the original drive train. It has not been licensed since about 1964. It has been used to plow my driveway, so it runs between 4 and 15 times a year. It has been serviced every year. The body is in pretty rough shape but is fixable for the right person. It comes with a 7′ snow plow and I don’t want to take it off.”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $2300
I’m guessing it doesn’t run at the moment?
“For Sale a 1943 MB Willy Jeep this is unrestored but has all the parts, except combat rims. I just dont have time to get to it and would like to see it go to a good home.”
It’s an unusual roll cage. I like the ‘hot rod’ head cover.
“JEEP WILLYS 1945 RUNS AND DRIVE GOOD.”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $3500.
I think the passenger side body has been repaired, but generally doesn’t look too bad.
“1945 military jeep wil 4 cylinder”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $2000.
The rear part of the body is from a CJ-5 or M-38a1.
“’42/’43 Model. Front and rear body are different model but match nearly perfect. Motor runs great (starts easily, does not smoke). Drive train is OK, but shows some wear. Body is rough but no rust. I have title. I have used it as a ranch/hunting vehicle and is perfect for it.”
