Fantastic Willys Jeep I reckon.

[@bourdon845]

Cool !

[@Ken19700]

If it's still sitting on a GPW frame the front cross member will be C channel with the open end pointed down. If the crossmember is a tube then you have a Willys frame.

No rear panel is very common. Farmers would cut it out and discard it to facilitate agricultural use. They make replacements, even entire body kits. Mine was on a farm for 30 years before I acquired it.

WWII jeeps gas tanks are filled by flipping up the seat cushion. They don’t have filler caps on the tub! That’s a CJ or M38 item. Ok I missed your comment about the gas tank refit. It didn’t make sense with all the gpw marked parts. Pretty cool - it has a lot of the bits. It’s looks lovely jevyiy have data plates AND a hood number - very cool. Sorry about the tub modifications. I’m just wrapping up an 8 year restoration on a ‘42 Willy’s myself. MVPA and MVCC Member

This sent before I could edit it🤔 that should have been it’s great that you have data plates and a hood number! My tub was so far gone I replaced it with a MD Juan repro

[@miketlane]

been wondering about that i have a jeep just like this but it dosent have the tank filler on the out side, no tail gate, but it has a win whiled with rounded corners. all i can assume is that it was fitted with a later model windshield, i dont have any where near the rust but it got a toyota 4banger im assuming in the 70s because its a 1960s 4 cyl that looks like its been in there a long time. runs and only cost me $300!

Glove box SN doesn't jive with early 42. Early 42 would have script tub. No ribs in the glove box, no trailer socket, reaction spring, blackout light etc...

[@charlesperkins941]

no mention of the bullet holes?

[@luismanuelnegrin7295]

[@zackmagnusson8583]

Shirt Shirt Dominic no. It’s gone.

[@randhalljoss6762]

metal was so rare in 43 /44 also rubber, jeep commed out of willys and ford factory build with used parts from the africa front so no ford was pure ford no willys was pure willys

[@garyallsebrook3493]

Thats not a WWII jeep. Thats a Korean war M38

[@zackmagnusson8583]

Gary Allsebrook, how can you tell?

[@johnqpublic9074]

Nope, its a WW2 GPW. If it was M38 it would have T90 transmission, and hinges on the front of the grill.

[@switch625.]

[@lebaillidessavoies3889]

@@johnqpublic9074 You are right Excuse me ! Just watched the vid a second time,its the gas tank filler on the left side that got me wrong ( probably a bubba job).Nice jeep....hard to find one like that in Europe.
