1945 WILLY'S MB 1/4 TON MILITARY JEEP - US NAVY - OLDER RESTORATION - ORIGINAL !

Up for auction is this very special 1945 Willy's MB Military Jeep finished in US Navy markings and color.   This is a great package deal as it includes several thousand dollars in original accessories and original manuals.   There is no evidence that this Jeep has ever been cut or welded or rusted in any way (except for a tiny bit of surface corrosion on the flat face of the windshield frame. almost undetectable).   No evidence of ever being a farm vehicle.   All spot welds are visible.   The floor and interior metal is very straight. as is the entire body.   Restoration was done in the early 1990s. but has just the right amount of wear and tear to give a great patina.   Has the correct rear muffler and inline fuel filter in place of the firewall mounted fuel filter (for late 1945).   Odometer reads 66854.   Fuel gage currently hooked up backwards (zero when full and full when empty).   Starts. runs and drives great.   The only repro parts are the M2 Decon bottle. the electrical box under the passenger seat. canvas items. and the five new tires. which are the new Goodyears that don't have any modern federal markings on them and are WWII copies.   The repro items are only for completeness and should be replaced with original items for maximum value.   The hood number is painted. but the other markings are decals. so they can be easily removed and replaced by painting.   Includes a Willard cased Optima battery.   Six volt system.   There is a Sun Compass attached to the left fender. and includes the complete compass box and instructions.   The details are very impressive.   The accessories in the jeep are way too numerous to list. but you can get an idea from the pictures.   Some of the items are rare and expensive. such as the non-operational M1 Garand rifle (I can take pictures of every accessory if needed).   Original manuals include TM 9-803. TM 9-1803A. TM 9-1803B. ORD 7. 8. and 9. plus a few extras as pictured.   Includes lots of original tools and tire chains. etc. in the rear fender storage boxes.   Includes various spare parts.   I'm sure I'm missing many more details. but it should be seen in person to fully appreciate it.   I have the CA pink slip and CA license plate in hand (currently non-op since I only drive it on the airport. but you can re-register it as a driver).

Please ask questions.   More photos available upon request.   Vehicle sold as is.   US sales only.   Available for pick up in person or you can arrange for shipping at your cost.   Good Luck !!!
