This 1943 GPW ( VIN: GPW 101331 manufactured 04/1943) Jeep is ready for off-roading and hunting. Very well maintained always and stored indoors.
Absolutely a reliable driver and can take you through any terrain. As you can see from the photos it has a slight lift and larger wheels and tires.
Proper GPW Ford original chassis, body & drive train.The body has reinforcements made by previous Owner in some areas with checkered plates.. The tub has a metal skin around it which seems to have been done in its early days to cover flaws as easy fix. therefore body looks solid.The floor boards are solid but the cross channels on undercarriage have corrosion as is common in these jeeps.
Original GPW motor and t-84 transmission. The engine is GPW but the head on it is a later year (I may have the original head some where, not sure).
Rear axle is locked for off-roading. Front wheel locking hubs, low/high works perfect.
Very reliable and fun driver with 12 volt system.Foot starter and all lights and gauges work great.
Has driving brights for the night driving in the forest.
Seats are not original, custom for comfortable ride when off road ( I do Have one original seat with F marking in perfect condition),
Gas tank is non original.( I have the original gas tank) if you want.
Has the original data plates. I have photos of chassis number on frame, engine number on block and more.
It is a great candidate for restoring to original for a purist but I feel that one can enjoy it as is for hunting or going on trails and let it appreciate in value.Restore in future if you wish to.
Perfect if you have a mountain cabin. This thing will go practically anywhere.
Open to serious and reasonable offer from like minded hobbyist.
Price: $8900
