GPW 242836
This jeep is road registered hence the "ad ons" such as indicators and the like. I restored it to 3/4 done some years ago, sold it and bought it back several years later completed. I do not know if the hood numbers are correct or not as I did not put them there. I have overhauled the rear diff, gearbox, clutch & brakes. The engine is out of a Willys but the head is off a GPW.
