Is this a fair price for this Jeep?
Looks in good shape with several extras.
Unusual to know the Jeep’s actual history.
I believe that adds real value.
Joey,
I would agree that a documented history of the jeep adds value. The pics suggest this was nicely restored, but I could not say if this was a fair value based on these pics (more needed). I just can’t see enough of the jeep.
I’m seeing MBs & GPWs like this being listed for between $15k and $25k. What they are actually selling for I couldn’t say. So, the best I can do is say that this MB has been listed at a price point similar to others I’ve seen in a similar condition (if the pics are accurate).
Is this jeep still for sale? Thank you
Dave, I am very interested in a jeep like this. Please contact me if you see something similar. Thank you!
Hi Jesse,
It looks like this one sold. I’ve updated the post.
Here’s another MB in the same area, though not quite as nice: https://phoenix.craigslist.org/nph/cto/d/mayer-1942-jeep-willys/7154253294.html

If so-I am very interested in purchasing this Jeep.
One question: Of the frame, tube, engine and data plate- Are there matching serial numbers?
