Father Thomas Asher Needs Some M-38A1 Parts

• CATEGORIES: Features, wanted This site contains affiliate links for which I may be compensated.

Father Thomas Asher expressed an interesting in sharing some history as part of a retreat near Los Gatos, California, this summer. You can read a short bio on him here.

He was most interested in finding one or more folks to bring their jeeps to the retreat and share some history with the kids, but it’s proven difficult to find help. So, he bought an M-38A1, but it needs some parts. He’s got shipping arranged out of Dallas (he grew up there), but if anyone has some parts and can help him out, he’d appreciate it. You can call him at 408-455-1720

I was hoping someone in the Dallas/Fort Worth area might have some of the things just to keep shipping costs down. Bob at 820 Jeep Service got us a few things but wasn’t sure if there was
someone else in this area. The things I would like to find fairly soon are all available on line I
just wanted to make sure someone didn’t have these things laying around that I could pick up for a better price.

Thanks for your help,
Thomas Asher

    Happy to read this post, a great way for the Catholic Church to engage with the community. Pope Francis speaks, and Father Thomas listens. Some of those parts Father Tom is looking for are listed in the previous post, 1943 MB and parts, Windsor, NY, Donations, just a thought.
