GPW 261352
This Jeep was titled in Maryland after being surplused in 1947. I actually have the original title! I bought her from a farmer outside Fredericksburg VA in 1998. She had been sitting outside for several years and was in sad shape, however most of the small parts were still intact with "F" scripts everywhere. I'm still undergoing the frame up restoration slowly but steadily.
