Willys MB GPW Jeep (1942)
for sale

Price: US $3,600.00

Description:

I bought someone else’s stalled work in progress several years ago as a 2nd undertaking for me and my son. My boy's attending college now, so our second Jeep isn’t going to happen. The guy who had the ’42 before us did quite a bit of work on the rolling chassis and tub, but otherwise just bought and stockpiled new parts.
THE BAD — Easier to list what's not in the basket than what is: • Doesn't have center data plate or frame tag• No inner windshield frame• No instruments other than a fuel gauge• No radiator, top bows, or distributor..
THE GOOD• Exceptional chassis, no cracks or deep rust at all. • Original Tub: prior owner installed a new front floor (less tank well). New rear floor panel standing by. • '44 engine from a Hobart Welder. S bore, Nil wear (Rattle-can rebuild). Head tanked, flux'd, resurfaced -- no cracks. • VA title, 41 WILLYS, KY assigned VIN.
• From the original floor's toe board gusset #97753, correct VIN would be early December 1942, MB194000 - MB 196500 (if the tub is original to this frame)
• New leaf springs, shackles and tie rod ends already installed. • Repro wiring harness, new in the bag• All 3 seat frames. • Gusset plates, and new spring mounts already in hand to replace Bubba's bumper.
• Correct T84 and transfer case, condition unknown.• Misc / notable on the pile, original reflectors, original sheller w/ no cracks, hood air defector, Spartan horn, fat drive shaft, new windshield to cowl rubber, etc.
