No good overall photos of the jeep.

“I have a M38 in good condition for its age. There is no major rust, just some minor surface rust. It is all original with a 24 volt electrical system, winch and auxiliary heater. The jeep has been painted over a few times but the army insignia is still visible on the hood and with some research a collector could find what unit this jeep belonged to. Electric winch on the front. The engine is free but not running, transmission is free and shifts into all gears, transfer case is also free. Comes with soft door frames and a new fuel tank”

“1952 Willys Jeep M-38
Rancho suspension
225 V-6 engine -60 psi oil pressure
Chrome Selectro hubs
Chrome mod wheels with decent tread on tires

The M-38 is the military Jeep and has a better frame, stronger Dana 44 rear diff. And no wood in the frame to make it rust. There is no rust through on this jeep and the hat channels are in great shape. Although someone must not have liked the shovel indents because they bonded them in!? There is a lot of Bondi on the Jeep but I don’t see any rust!
Needs seats, wiring, brakes ,dash
Engine runs with great oil pressure”

“I’m selling my 1952 Willys M-38. This is the military version of the Willys CJ2A. This Jeep was an Air Force Ordinance Vehicle in the Korean War and according to the serial number saw service in country in Korea and made it back to the USA. It still has some vestiges of Air Force blue paint on the speedometer bezel and the rear axle. I am the 3rd civilian owner and I’ve owned it for about 10 years. It is mechanically sound and rust free. Everything works and it works very well. This is not a project Jeep. When I bought the Jeep it had the Buick V6 that is in it and it ran good but the wiring, brakes and paint were bad. I have totally upgraded this Jeep.

Charles is selling this M-38. He has other vehicles for sale in similar condition that will be shown at the Military Vehicle Collector Show next year in June 2018.

“This rare example of a historic M38 has been professionally restored to “better than new condition.”  The history of this U. S. Army Jeep is well known.  It was purchased by a U. S. Soldier when both he and the vehicle arrived home to the states from the Korean War. It was assigned to the 10th Mountain Division. The soldier who purchased this jeep couldn’t get a Greyhound bus ticket so he bought this jeep to make his way home to Wisconsin. My father is the 3rd private owner of this vehicle.

As you can see from the pictures, this jeep has been appropriately outfitted with restored and working communications equipment.  It includes antennas, a windshield canvas cover, first aid kit, tool kit, full canvas top, curtains, doors and bows.

Must see to appreciate the detail put into this restoration.

Asking $23,500 as described.  Please contact Charles at 502-896-2303 during normal business hours.  Please, serious inquiries only.  Title in hand.”

It has a 231 v-6 engine that has the HEI ignition. I have run the engine with pouring fuel down the carb and jumper wires, it sounded good and started right up.
It has a T-14 3 speed trans mission, and a single lever M-18 transfercase. the engine- trans assembly probably all came from a 70’s jeep.
It has a complete Rancho suspension, Rancho shocks and springs with about 2” lift and heavy duty Con-Ferr shackles

Listed as an M-38, it looks more like a replacement body on a CJ-3A-like frame. There’s no hinge for the grille and no battery box.

“Jeep runs great. Starts right up every time
4cyl but not stock. It is some type of gm 4cyl I think.
New tires
New seats
Good glass
Needs steering bolted down. Its in but needs to be made solid. And needs lights reconnected. And trans cover and gass pedal put in. And that is it. Im pretty sure it can be driven onto a trailer as it sits. But has to be all bolted up to be driveable on road
I have all thats needed to finish.

Take it cheap now or as i finish things the price will rise. Either way is fine with me bc i am in no hurry.
I will not bargain on price.
. trades considered”
