Removed body, engine, etc. And got it down to rolling frame, and
many pieces.

Found more problems than I thought were there. |
|
| With not much left of the rear end, and the floorboards and supports almost gone, it's a spare now. Maybe to be rebuilt later. | GPW Body as came off the frame |
| The frame was rusted a lot worse than I thought. | GPW Frame and why I didn't rebuild it. |
| Went and found a Willys WWII frame for a replacement. Turns out by the SN Tag this Willys frame is from a 1941 slat grill, built Dec 4, 1941. It also had problems, but not near as bad as the GPW. |
MB Frame after preliminary preps. MB Frame almost ready, still have to reinstall the inner frame boxing. |
