Unusual jeep

[Little Jo]

Hi All

I noticed this WW2 Jeep for sale on e-Bay. The vehicle is for sale in Australia and is advertised as a 06/1942 FORD/WILLYS JEEP. I am confused as it does not appear to be the same as my 1942 MB Willys Jeep I recently restored. The Data plate shows it as a "Ford" and the engine has "Willys Jeep" on the top of the engine head, which mine does not. My Engine number is behind the Oil filter and my chassis Number which is confirmed for a 04/08/1942 delivered MB Willys Jeep.

The vehicle for sale states the engine number as: GPW11542, and the chassis number as 112330. I have enclosed photos and would be interested if it is a "Ford" or "Willys" Jeep. The chassis number 112330 is in the 1942 MB Willys Jeep manufacture range. I am Confused.

Details off e-Bay below.

Cheers

Tony

FORD WILLYS JEEP - 06/1942 - GOOD RELIABLE WORKING CONDITION- VERY ORIGINAL AND AUTHENTIC - VIC HISTORIC REG ...09586-H

Good Early example of FORD/WILLYS JEEP. Has recently been approved for rego by the Victorian Military Vehicle Club, the Tester commented favourably on how original it was. Drives very nicely, front brakes just reconditioned. Starts first time (foot starter, kill switch) all canvass seats good, solid body. Paint acceptable, however a repaint would make vehicle top class.

-12 volt electrical system -original Left-Hand Drive -near new tyres -good canvass top - new points, plugs, oil. -indicators and lights.

Unfortunately I am not giving it the attention it deserves and when I do my wife does not give me the favourable attention I deserve.

Vehicle is at Burwood, Victoria. You are welcome to look and hear run, no joy rides sorry.
