UPDATE: John also has a rebuilt M-274 Mule for $17,000 or $30,000 for both the M-38 and Mule (As nice of a Mule and as equipped as I’ve ever seen).

“For sale, 1952 M38. Nine year old frame off restoration. Have all the original receipts plus what I’ve put into it. Engine was rebuilt also. Used wrong adaptor on my compression gauge and bent valve. Has been replaced and runs good again. Can show receipts and pictures for the valve work. Has minor master cylinder leak. Have a new one just to lazy to put it on. New brakes in 2018 and new water pump in 2019. New batteries in 2019. Has overdrive but seriously I have never tried it. (My bad) has been in heated garage since I’ve owned it and never seen rain.
Have some new steering parts. Have most of the fording parts. Has a couple of typical oil leaks but nothing bad. All the fluids, tranny, transfer case, rear ends, anti freeze, and engine oil have been changed recently. Wiper motors are but not hooked up, no blades either. . Since it doesn’t see rain, never needed them. Gas gauge has some rust showing in it.
Since there were 100 different opinions on the direction of the hood star, I put it the way I believed it goes. My knee doesn’t work real good with the clutch anymore so I’m selling it. If your looking for a museum piece this isn’t it but it’s a nice clean vehicle that just needs a little TLC. I also have an M274 A5 with recoilless rifle mule for sale. Four wheel steering. Nice but no museum piece either. I’m asking $15,000.00 for the M38 and $17,000.00 for the mule or thirty for both”
