GPW 108552

I purchased this jeep from my friend Chuck Lutz (RIP).

A very nice April 1943 GPW with a matching engine and frame. No data tags, unfortunately. The tub is one of the nicest I have ever seen in unrestored condition.. This GPW will compliment my March 1943 GPW and will be restored back to as close to Factory Class as I can. 
 

Information supplied by Jim Gilmore from Ford Archives: Engine: Assembled at Rouge Motor Building, March 30, 1943. Hood Number: 20371278 Estimated DOD: April 17, 1943 (missing data plate). Tires: Synthetic. Shipped April 21, 1943 by Pennsylvania Railroad Shipping invoice # C-136613. Box Car # 81654.
