The engine does not leak oil or coolant. The engine runs nicely and starts reliably. The Jeep turns heads wherever it shows up. Truly a wonderful piece of Americana”

“This is one of the last 2 of 9 military vehicles sold from my collection. In addition to this jeep I’m also selling 1953 m38a1. I bought this Jeep from an individual who did a partial restoration with the most important restoration being the rebuilding of the engine. I would describe its current condition as being Fair to Good. It starts right up and drives well. I replaced the original hood with a reproduction hood but kept the original hood should a buyer want it. It came painted as an Army Jeep but since I served in the Marines I put Marine paint and markings on it. The photos fairly well show the condition of the jeep. It also comes with a tow frame to be attached on the front and some odds and ends. The tires and tubes are relatively new. The Jeep has a MS title with 1945 MS Historical legal license plate. It has been stored in a closed garage and seldom left outside. It does have a tendency to slip out of 2nd gear, which I am told is coming for this model. Interested parties are encouraged to personally inspect and drive the vehicle. Located in Diamondhead, MS.”
