How funny. The seller is the one who posted this. Indonesia is the ebay sellers location. Same as the poster.

Actually it's a starting bid of $600.00 plus shipping.

With that said,when was the last time that you saw one of these for sale?

Looks to be in great shape, the last one that I remember for sale was very beat up.

Nice piece of original prototype jeep equipment. Price looks about right for one of these. Probably one of the cheaper parts required for a restoration of a 1941 Ford GP so don't be surprised if it climbs quickly.

And you would be surprised where jeeps and jeep parts ended up during and after ww2. :wink: :D

I have no connection with seller

Tim,

Perhaps a little history lesson needed here

Indonesia was once the Dutch owned colony .. Dutch East Indies.. and Ford USA shipped a whole batch of 1941 GP jeeps to them prior to the US officially entering WW2. The Japanese quickly overrun the colony.
A friend in NZ, John Geesink, was there as a child and can remember the GP jeeps being offloaded. He now has one he restored to Dutch build specification. I will try to find a picture.

So no surprises that GP parts have surfaced in Indonesia, I wonder if Hans found any nos Holley carbis :wink: :D
