Well folks. .no sugar coating on this one. .its a late model 1945 Willys MB! This model was produced just a few weeks prior to the end of the war contract of the Willys MB military Jeep in 1945 (Dated 8/8/45). The last military MB rolled off the assembly line in September of '45. (I also have the original data plate and it still has its i.d. tag on the left front frame horn).The floors will need to be replaced as they are rusted in areas. I have the original grill, hood, right (NOS)and left front fenders. I have the heavier replacement front bumper along with the rear cross member if needed. The numbers matching engine ran when this first came home (this has been sitting in my garage for the past 7 years) however it has a very slight crack in the water-jacket from someone who did not properly winterize it. As these only have 7lbs. of pressure in the cooling system I was told by old Jeep owners that this was a common problem with these old 4 cylinders and was instructed to simply drop some Bars Radiater Sealer tablets into the cooling system and that normally stops any seepage of coolant. I was not as confident as the old timers so I am also including a 1945 MB engine produced a couple of weeks prior to mine so it will still be correct for a restoration. It has been magna-fluxed and comes with all internal parts. It has a Utah title and was signed off by the Ogden Railway in 1984 where it apparently spent the latter part of its life. (The fellow I bought it from was told it was originally purchased at a government Air Force base auction before its life with the railroad).The drive-train is intack as I have not removed any of the suspension or drive train. I did remove the carb. and some wires, hoses, etc... as I started some work but everything else is still in place.The radiator is one of the nicest I've ever seen with virtually no damage to the cooling fins (see pic).Here are some of the other items included (some pictured...some not):
5 military tires, tubes, and liners (New)Leaf springs (2 NOS)Shocks and bushings (NOS)Replacement Temp. Gauge (New)Complete body grab handles 4(New)Original front drivers and passenger seat framesOriginal Miltary seat pads (civilian spring pads also included for front seats)New Replacement and original gas tank with sending unit (New)Frame bumpers 4 (NOS)Horn button kit (New)NOS rear tail lightsNOS front marker lightsNew wiring harnessNew Spare tire mountOriginal WWll Bow setOriginal windshield frames (New date stamped glass included)New window sealsOriginal and aftermarket hip padsOriginal Pintle hookOriginal Ames shovel Pioneer axOriginal ammo lid covers and latchesOriginal rear foot restsOriginal air pumpOriginal Trico vacuum wipers and hand operated (New)New side rearview mirror and bracketPyrene fire extinguisherMany new and used parts. .too many to list.
