Vehicle description
Note: This 78 year old Jeep does not have a title, it will be sold with bill of sale only. It is a 1942 GPW Serial Number 17569 Date of Delivery 4-14-1942. Don"t read any further if you can"t deal with buying it on a bill of sale only. Getting a title is possible through a title company or through the DMV in your state once you purchase it depending on the laws in your state.
This beautiful 1942 Ford GPW Serial Number GPW17569 (Dated of delivery April 14, 1942) started out as a rescue from a farm in northern Tennessee. The original body was too far gone, so I opted for a new reproduction body from DL Bensingers. It underwent a frame off rebuild by me, who has rebuilt over thirty-five Willys and Fords and have had many jeeps sold successfully on e-Bay and other sites.
Everything has been gone through on this jeep and everything has been cleaned, repainted, or replaced with original, NOS or reproduction parts.
Chassis and Drive Train: New rear crossmember, new shackles, new springs, new shocks, new axle bumpers, new u-joints, new clutch & pressure plate assembly and new throwout bearing, re-surfaced flywheel, Rebuilt Willys T-84 tranny with new synchros, new seals bearings on tranny and transfer case which were drained and cleaned and new fluids, new e-brake drum and band and hardware, new e-brake cable, new engine/tranny mounts, new brake lines and hoses, new master cylinder, new tie rod ends, rebuilt steering box and drag link, original Willys steering wheel, new bumperettes, repro. pintle hook. 4 new 6x16 NDT tires and tubes and one older correct spare tire on five new repro combat split rims.
Engine: Previously rebuilt by prior owner civilian L-134 engine. Runs real strong and smooth, no smoke, no noises, no misses, correct professionally rebuilt Carter W-O Carb, civilian fuel pump, rebuilt intake manifold, new exhaust manifold and new gaskets, new 12 volt PowerGen alternator that looks like a period correct generator, new 12 volt civilian wiring, new battery, new hoses, new fan belt, new 180 degree t-stat, new temp. gauge, new ammeter, new fuel gauge and sender, new fuel lines, new oil pressure gauge, new distributor, plugs and wires. Reproduction brand new radiator. New exhaust system. Repro Oakes style oil bath air cleaner.
Body: Bensinger GPW Master Body kit; new tub, fenders, grille, windshield including new glass, hood, seats, new fuel tank, new top bows, brackets and hardware, new canvas (Top is and seats are Beachwood canvas), repro. shovel and axe, period correct jerry can, repro. new 12V headlights and tail-lights (modified taillights for 12V), repro data plates, Correct felt gaskets and locks on glove and tool boxes. Reproduction rifle mount. Two bolt spare tire mount.
Misc: All new electric, all new gauges (including speedometer), all lights, all new switches work properly, but for civilian use, original light switch but double pull - first pull is blackout, second pull is headlight/tail light. Mileage unknown, but regardless of odometer reading this Jeep is better than motor pool, almost like it just came off the assembly line. Hood numbers painted in correct blue drab. Number developed from serial number.
The only thing left to do with this vehicle is have fun driving it and possibly outfit it with some WW II Era paraphernalia. Vehicle is sold as is where is. Sales outside of USA without title at your own risk getting through customs. Shipping costs are responsibility of buyer. Will work with buyer to arrange shipping.
Deposit via Paypal, balance in cash, Paypal or wire transfer upon pick up or prior to shipping. No checks, no trades, no scams. The "Buy It Now" price is realistic price, the reserve price is very close to that. This Jeep will sell as have all my previous restorations, don"t let it slip away. A great running "brand new" GPW - these are getting harder and harder to find.
