41 mb?

[enfield]

I found this on craigslist, the owner says its a 41 MB and is asking $1700. It runs and drives, but is missing all brake parts from the pedal linkage to the brake lines...

Not a '41 but it is a WWII jeep
been hacked/modified here & there
Frame could be a 41 but body is not.
post war head on motor, missing bypass oil filter


I'd buy it!

It's more of a project than I can handle right now. The frame is pretty solid, but the body is thin in spots. It also smokes pretty bad. I'll just keep looking.

I'd rather have the Dodge behind it...

definitely has some potential, but a lot of work in it.

Enfield,when you are checking ads you will find a lot of times the seller has no idea of the year or is going by what the person who he bought it from thought it was.In other words go look at it if possible what they may call a cj jeep just might be a WW2.Also a lot of these when they passed from the govt into prvate hands were mistitled as to year by the state DMV,s.Case in point,the 1942 MB i purchased 3 years ago was titled in Ohio for 25 years and 5 owners as a 1942.Turns out when I found the serial plate on the frame under Bubbas railroad iron welded on bumpers it is actually a Jan 1943.I am going to attempt to post a as purchased and after 3 years photo.

Thanks for the responses guys, I am passing on this and pursuing a M151A1 for now.

He wants $8500 for the Dodge!

He also had this...
