1942 GPW Aiken, SC Status Unknown

UPDATE: Was $5000.

It's a project.

"Early 1942 Ford "Script" Jeep to restore. Super original & rare to find, it's been sitting outside, sad to say. The tub is pretty rough but repairable and the frame is in really good condition to restore. I have an L-head core motor and a core T-84 transmission plus some other GPW parts from other restorations. No transfer case. The correct Dana 25 front and Dana 23 rear is original and both roll really smoothly. This a once in a lifetime find and if restored properly will fetch upwards of $30,000. Personally, I hate to do it but I want to finish restoring my M38A1. AS-IS with a Bill of Sale only.
Open to trades and will deliver for additional cost."

I'm pretty ambitious with the whole "I can fix it" thing... but I don't really consider that tub "repairable". At least he didn't call it "restorable". And $5K?

I don't see $5,000 worth there.

That would make my '43 worth about $75,000.

Again, another Jeep that's too nice for me. But at only $5,000.... what a bargain!

Maybe it was a type-O (extra 0) and he sold it for the $500 it was probably worth.
