There might be some value here.

“Needs work. Body needs welding due to cracks but is restorable. Unfortunately it has a 302 in it and saginaw steering. And the emergency brake was cut out of the dash. Missing the plate for the dash guage cluster, but guages are there. has the 24 volt hatch on the cowl. I took off the old fenders that were wrong as was the grille. So the ones on it now are correct. But due to the V-8 the radiator will not fit unless you cut the shroud and I could not bring my self to do that. Engine has been started before radiator was removed so I know it runs. But the brake master cylinder needs rebuilt. With those correct and some spot welding of the body it would be road ready. The cracks are from someone that apparently did not know how to weld so they repaired the cracks in the body with fiberglass and bondo which made them worse, but fixable. Top is a actual M38 top and will fit a 3A. Top alone is worth $400 or more and has the doors inside. Seats has legs cut to extend for some tall dude. But can be repaired or put 3A seats in since they are the same. This is basically a military version of a 3A. Has floating rear axles which are sought after. The price is less than what I have into it. have too many jeeps so If you have a L head that has been rebuilt and has all the papers I may consider a trade. If you don’t want the 302 and want to pull it I will swap with a 4 cylinder L head that needs rebuilt but is not a M38 engine. Also may consider a newer utility trailer with sides and ramp for my wide model ATV. Has to be wider than a cargo trailer since mine is to narrow to haul it. Also have other 40’s jeeps that I am selling. They are also projects. I am just too tired to put all these and the other project together. Would hate to see it but with the rear end and engine this would make a good rock crawler. Also have a Buick 225 that I bought rebuilt and have clutch kit still in the box for sale.”
