For Sale 1942 GPW, S/N 78559

Post by philipj » Sat Dec 09, 2017 9:04 am

1942 Ford GPW Jeep S/N 78559, Production date 11/13/42, Contract # 20159749, rebuilt by Moore Equipment Co., Modesto Division on June 1945 with the following recent work.

Period correct replacement engine, MB# 405201 (21 April 44) Casting # 4-25 638632 W3 AN1-C2 N- machined @0.20 oversize with all new internal components including hardened seats, valves, and a new Carter carburetor. Other new items include Weebee Webbing canvas top, NOS fuel sending unit, rear springs, and black out marker light..

Everything is in perfect working order. The total mileage is 1881 since the complete rebuild 5 years ago. Most parts, including the rear floor pan were purchased from (due to possible litigation this name is blocked), Brent Mullins and John Fitzpatrick.. The engine has less than 500 miles since the teardown back in March of this year..

Overall it looks like it probably did in use back in 1943, with a few minor dings and a couple of scratches... Please see photos from link below. I have a file with all documents including a title for this vehicle.

Good looking jeep! Hindsight being what it is, I wish I would have waited before purchasing mine.
