UPDATE: **SOLD** Was on eBay.

Here’s an early Slattie.

“1941 willys mb slat grille. this is a very early jeep. according to the gee 503 dot com. some say it is a first or second day production.

I will list specifics that this jeep has. it has a running willys engine. with a mb 111471 that is the number on the water pump housing on the jeep engine. which consequently is the vin number. no dash plate with number or number on the frame.

this engine runs and purrs like a kitten. I base all my information of the g503 where this is a possible us replacement army engine out of the 50s but it is NOT the correct engine.

Some awesome pieces are included in the sale. Slat grille radiator (which may have a leak in the middle) Gas gauge. previous owner said it worked when the tank was full. but I doubt it. don’ tknow. air filter is early as well. there a slat air deflectors on the side of the fenders. and the big one on bottom of the hood. engine smokes a little when it is first fired up. but the jeep drives starts stops. all three gears work”
