Photo of 1956 Fire Truck Douglas County, CO on eBay

• CATEGORIES: Fire/Police/Industry Vehicles, Old Images, Willys Trucks This site contains affiliate links for which I may be compensated.

This is a print from a 35mm slide, but you are purchasing only the print and not the slide.

“Beautiful new professional print (6″ X 4″) from an old 35mm slide of a 1956 Willys Jeep pickup being used at the Douglas County Fire Department parked in the drive way of the fire house (KODACHROME TRANSPARENCY PROCESSED BY Kodak, date imprinted APR 60). Beautiful looking JEEP, Fire Engine Red, loaded with equipment. No idea where the photo was taken. If anyone can help I’d sure appreciate it. Nothing written on the slide. Much better than scan, crisp and clear. Any glare or distortion is from my digital camera. The ruler does not show up on the print.”

1942 GPW Barnesville, GA **SOLD**

• CATEGORIES: GPW (Ford MB), Last Ride This site contains affiliate links for which I may be compensated.

UPDATE: Was on eBay. **SOLD**

A little duck tape and some bailing wire and this is good to go!

“I’m selling a ’42 GPW, GPW 23679 D.O.D. 4-29-42 I bought this one for parts for myself and now have no need for it. Figured I would list it here vs. taking it to the scrapper!

The frame is in good shape, the front horns are the best I have ever seen! just the Bubba bumper on the front and the civi attachment on the rear

The tub has rot on the left rear where the tail light hole and tool box floor would have been (I’m including a tool box section from another tub) floors need to be repaired/replaced- tool box lids are in good shape, but as mentioned before the tool box’s are themselves rotted….. the pioneer tool area is in good shape, some rot but repairable, dash was cut by previous owner to remove the guages but is included and can be stitch welded back in, glove box was also removed by PO and had the original tags on it ( will give you his contact info if you need it) this one was early enough to have a flat bottom on the glove box and could be easily fabricated. Driver seat is a small mouth gas tank seat but the seat back was modified with another frame, passenger seat is F marked but will need new swivel mounts/ feet. Fenders are in decent shape, support channels are not rotted out like you typically see but the do have there share of dents and bends in them.Hood is original to this jeep, is F marked and in decent shape, some rot on the support. Its missing the left axle shaft in the pics but I have a Willys one I will include, the front left hub is off in the pics as well but is included.”

1942 GPW Florida **SOLD**

• CATEGORIES: GPW (Ford MB), Last Ride This site contains affiliate links for which I may be compensated.

UPDATE: **SOLD** Was on eBay

“Up for your consideration is a 1942 Ford GPW. Willys and Bantam also made these type of Jeeps. This unit went into service November 30, 1942. Not sure of any history during service however, I did research and found this GPW was sold at a WAA auction September 11. 1946 in Jacksonville Fl. From what I know a neighbor of my Grandparents went to Jacksonville on that day and purchsed this GPW. He used it as a hunting vehicle around our rural area. He was an avid bird hunter with trained dogs so he cut the rear of the tub out and moved it forward to act as a divider between him and his bird dogs. The GPW was parked at sometime in its life under a pole barn for what appears was head gasket change. Unfortuneately, it was never reassembled. After the mans death is sat many more years until new owners of the farm tore down the barns and this GPW was put out to pasture (literally). I aquired the GPW after it sat outside for about a year. Pictures speak louder than words so please look closely and ask any and all questions prior to bidding. The windshield, cylinder head, and hood (possibly other items) were not able to be found. I will include a link to a photobucket album for more pictures. The GPW has a lot of the Ford Script parts such as fuel filter, radiator cap, pintle hitch and probably much more.One item that is very unique is a period correct watch faced engine hour meter. . . .
