UPDATE: Was $1750. **SOLD**
The engine and rear axles has been swapped (at the very least).
“1943 Willys – Overland Military Jeep…. This is a project vehicle… Jeep was found under a house, mummified…. Been there since 1968… Had to drag it out… Power train frozen… 4 cyl military motor had been swapped out with a 6 cyl Studebaker somewhere in the early 50’s…. That’s all the old gal could remember…. She said it was running when it went into it’s grave… Some parts are off motor, starter, generator… Does/did it run… No Idea… A family member started to get it running… Pulled tranny & transfer case… Found broken gears in tranny… Bought new,,, Included… Then started on transfer case… found reason for locked power train…. transfer case completely rusted solid… and so ended the repairs to the Jeep…. Have some manuals… included…Tub is in great shape…. No Rust… most all parts from original Military configuration seem to be there…. but you need to see and make up your own mind… This baby needs some TLC…. Jeep does roll but must have all wheels off ground to transport…”
it was posted on g503 and the poster stated he contacted the owner, it sold within 20 minutes of the ad being posted. Guy probably could have gotten double or triple that and still sold quick. I’d be digging change out of the jar to get that thing…
You’d be digging up a lot more change to get it back to originality in my opinion. Motor, electrical system, combat wheels just to mention a few. Modification to front of frame under radiator. It does have a decent body though.
