Found another one.

Post by wizigig » Wed Dec 04, 2013 8:17 pm

Definitely in a sad state. Was advertised on Craigslist as a 1942 for $200 in pieces, and it was. It is a GPW, no serial on the frame. I have carefully wet sanded by hand in the usual places to no avail, knowing my luck it was on the motor mount that someone chiseled off so they could try and stuff the v6 in. The tub looks to be a ford, no number stamped on the toe gusset and there is no reinforcing ribs in the glove box. The back floor board is rotted out so bubba hacked out the wheel wells / tool boxs and stuffed the flooring and wheel wells from some other rusty road casualty in.

Also the tub is covered in bondo, so God knows what the actual tub looks like.

Don't know what the bench seat is out of, but it isn't a normal jeep seat.

Is the top of the grill flat or does it have the dip ?

The grill has the dip in the middle and unfortunately no shrouds.
