UPDATE: **Status Unknown** Was $2500.
Looks like a solid project.No description provided.
This has the Ford script on the back.
“Ford GPW WWII Army Jeep, very rare in that it is the “Ford Script” model with “Ford” stamped on the back panel. It was last titled in 1961 in California, and the title is still open from that time. The vehicle was originally sold to the public from the government in 1946, so the title says 46 model and also references the year of sale being 46. The pictures speak for themselves, the GPW will obviously need total restoration. Some fool cut the firewall and floor pan to begin installing a 283 Chevy engine. They also cut a hole in the hood to put a small scoop on. The frame is not cut. I will pull the motor out of the GPW before it is picked up, as the motor DOES NOT go with the vehicle. There are some spots of rust as one would expect, but it is actually fairly solid. The left rear leaf spring is missing, which is why it is leaning to the left.
UPDATE: Still Available.
(03/02/2015) Has some value. VIN #35008. $2200 on craigslist.

“1951 CJ3A. Super nice. No rust or dents. Low original miles. Cosmetic restoration. Runs great. This is the nicest flat fender Jeep I have seen in many years. No trades please.”
The June 24, 1953, issue of the Spokesman-Review featured a photo of Yakima Ridge Runners Chet Thompson and Wally Klingele of the Yakima Ridge Runners practicing for the July 4th jeep rodeo.
UPDATE: I located a full video clip of the ‘jeep’. Mark discovered via Hemmings that this was a plywood prop built on a Ford chassis for the Laurel & Hardy movie Great Guns. It’s reported the prop still exists in a private collection.
It might be an older clock with Willys Jeep printed on it, but does anyone know if there is real history related to this?
