UPDATE: This is back on eBay
(07/03/2012) This looks like a good restoration candidate.
“WILLYS 1952 M-38 JEEP
The jeep has a strong engine, needs carb rebuild
Has Ramsey PTO winch on the front
The electrical has been changed to 12 volt
Very solid body, frame, floorboards, floor support channels
No rust! just on surface!
This Jeep is for restoration, I would like to see this go to someone that would put it back to original M-38 specs. My intention was just that when I purchased it but do not have the time now.
Please ask any questions before bidding on it, I will be happy to answer the best I can. If you are interested I would suggest come and see the M-38 in person. I will be happy to show you the Jeep. It is located in Northern California area.”

On the M-38, What exactly is the little door just in front of the windshield on the passenger side for?
The the 2nd battery went in there. They were a 24V system originally. This one has been converted to 12V, and the seller makes note of that.
Cool, thanks for the info Brett, That one always baffled me.
