“The pictures speak for themselves, no engine. The frame is straight and solid, while the body is in decent condition for an almost 70 y/o vehicle. Some small rust areas, but shouldn’t be a big issue for the right person with fabricating skills. There’s no title.

1949 Jeepster West Goshen, PA **SCAM**

• CATEGORIES: Jeepster • TAGS: This site contains affiliate links for which I may be compensated.

UPDATE: This is a SCAM. This was a reply one reader received.

“I’m Janice, glad to see you are interested! The price is $13,100. This belonged to my husband and after he passed away I decided to sell it. I moved at my daughter because I had a throat surgery and I’ll stay here for at least a few months. I’m located in Sioux City, IA. I have signed a contract with eBay to take care of the selling on my behalf. It is already at the shipping company here in Sioux City sealed and ready for the shipping. The deal includes free delivery and it will arrive at your address in 7-9 days, depending on the exact location. You will have 5 days to try out prior to making any purchase and if by any reason you find something you don’t like about it you can send it back at my expense.”

UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $3000.

It’s a project.

1942-mb-fortwayne-in9

“1942 Willys MB with TITLE!!
Everything Sandblasted & mostly epoxy primed, has motor/trans & many other parts, some salvageable, some not. The serial numbers on the block and head match they have been verified of the same era. The trans appears to be from a GPW. Once the frame was blasted, it was amazing just how nice it turned out. The frame other than the front and rear bumpers, is next to 100%. Everything is very clean.

The body, is definitely 77 years old. It’s actually quite amazing how little rust it does have.. basically only where the wood runners go under the drivers & pass floor pan & some in the gas tank area. But, overall the panels are not very straight & would require major body work to be presentable. The real value with this jeep is matching block serial #’s, a very clean frame & title. They reproduce everything for these jeeps, all the steel is easily attainable. But, this one has a couple bullet holes. :)”
