UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $6500.
This is an interesting rig. It’s listed as a 1956, but it’s got a ’52/’53 hinged grille. It’s got an M-38A1 body, but doesn’t have the battery cowl lid or lip.
“Cute and fun to drive…5 New tires from Discount tires $1,000…new exhaust system from manifold to rear…new front brakes.
Motor is a 232 Ambassador 6 not the small 4 & 6 cylinder motors offered.
All Canvas in good shape…windows zip down…ready for a winch…has hitch for towing.
Motor does not smoke at all….fresh points and new Coil…fresh Oil Change and Filter…fresh fuel filter and new air cleaner.
I have some extra parts such as races and bearings and seals for the front locking hubs…so ask for them if you buy the jeep.”
Never seen a instrument cluster like that before. I wonder what that’s from?
M38a1 dash too.
Instruments look to be late 40s Studebaker truck, steering wheel in late 1950s Hudson. Maybe it has the Hudson steering gear, which is much better than the Jeep stuff.
I forgot about the Hudson mod. That’s something I always wanted to try, as it seems to have been popular.
