CAR DESCRIPTION FROM SELLER
1943 FORD GPW JEEPAMERICAN MILITARY JEEP FROM 2ND WORLD WAR- BUILT TO LASTThis rare 1943 GPW ( VIN: GPW 101331 manufactured 04/1943) Jeep is ready for off-roading and hunting. Very well maintained and carefully used and always and stored indoors in my garage.It has integrity and is a great candidate for restoring to original. However, you can enjoy it as is for hunting or going on trails and let it appreciate in value. Restore it in future if you wish to.RARE to find a GPW with Proper GPW Ford original chassis, original body & original drive train. MOST OF THEM YOU FIND TODAY ARE WITH AFTER MARKET BODY OR ONES THAT HAVE BEEN PUT TOGETHER USING PARTS FROM SEVERAL JEEPS. It has a slight lift and larger wheels and tires ideal for off road. These have been done without making any alterations or structural changes keeping the integrity of the jeep intact.Original GPW motor and t-84 transmission both seem to match in numbers from April 1943 delivery. Rear axle is locked for off-roading which one can be reset. Front wheel locking hubs and the low/high for 4 wheeling works perfect.Very reliable and fun driver with a convenient easy to maintain 12 volt system.Foot starter like original with the ignition on the dash. Jeep starts right up and drives wonderful. Will go anywhere and bring you back from rough/extreme terrains.All the lights and gauges work.Has driving brights good for the night driving in the forest.Seats are not original, they are custom for comfortable ride when off road ( I do Have One original seat with F marking in perfect condition that will convey with the sale if my reserve is met.)Gas tank is non original.( I have the original gas tank in good condition and will convey with the sale if my price is met).As you can see the gas tank is from later model m 38 and the filler neck is on the side. this can be welded easily and the original tank can be installed which has the filler under the driver seat.Has the original data plate as you can see in the photos. The number on the plate & title match correctly to the VIN stamped on chassis .Engine is original GPW. I have attached a pic of the number on the block but not very legible as it has to be cleaned better to read, From best of my knowledge it is the engine that was from the factory. It seems to have been rebuilt in the past given the compression as well as the performance and power it has. Fantastic......The body is solid. For some reason it has some body reinforcements made by previous owner, perhaps to mount a roll bar (that was there when I bought it two years ago) or to cover dents?? Ideal for a cabin in the mountains. This thing will go practically anywhere.I have a canvas top in usable condition but I do not have the top frame which is available on ebay for $150 or so.Would love to sell to like minded hobbyist and collectors of war memorabilia.
