Year? M-38 Frisco, CO $7000

• CATEGORIES: M-38 This site contains affiliate links for which I may be compensated.

Titled as a 46 CJ-2A, the seller reports it is all M-38. Maybe someone swapped a VIN plate from a 2A to the M-38 for title purposes.

“This is a very nice Willys, it runs and drives and stops great and is a lot of fun. The body is straight, clean, and has no rust or dents. It has an after market m38 body on an m38 frame but is titled as a 1946 cj2. I have owned this jeep for 3 years and have had my fun with it. It drives straight down the road and the 4 wheel drive works perfectly. All fluids have been changed, new plugs, wires, oil bath was changed to oil filter with braided lines, new water pump, new starter, new fuel pump, shocks, tires and wheels, brakes, brake lines, axles were rebuilt with Warn hubs and the electric system has been converted to 12 volt. Comes with extras including Tiger top soft top with doors, the top is perfect I just like going topless and the jeep sits in a heated garage when I am not driving it. I also have a total of 10 wheels and tires 5 have about 800 miles on them and the others are the tall skinnys . I have the rear draw bar, spare tire holder, jerry can, old oil bath, 6 foot Western snow plow that was never installed, extra carb, and a box misc. parts. Now the bad, it has the typical jeep leaks, the bottom seat covers are torn but foam is in good shape, and the e brake is not installed but I have the parts. This thing is a real head turner and a lot of fun.”

1953? M-38 Daytona Beach, FL $33,000

• CATEGORIES: M-38 This site contains affiliate links for which I may be compensated.

Looks ready for the road, but it is also a good example of how the investment of time and money doesn’t always equal the market value.

“I had this jeep completely restored and absolutely love it. Unfortunately, I need to sell to get a work truck. I would consider trading for a 4×4 diesel or gas crew cab flatbed dually; or just a good newer 2500 4×4.

Please do not waste my time with random offers and just plan junk. I have 33k invested in this jeep with supporting documentation.”

1951 M-38 Weatherford, TX **SOLD**

• CATEGORIES: M-38 This site contains affiliate links for which I may be compensated.

UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $1200.

Includes some combat rims, so there could be some value here.

“Life gets in the way, I would love to restore this old girl but I just don’t have the time. I’ve spent a lot of time taking everything apart and starting to clean things up for a full ground up restoration but my time is needed elsewhere and I would like this to go to someone who will take care of her. There is only one cancer spot on the body tub and it’s under the passenger seat in the compartment and it’s not very big, should be a simple fix. I have a bunch of other parts with this as well. A few combat rims,CJ2A parts like a frame, fenders, trans/transfer case, axles. This is a project so you will need a trailer to get her home, I will help with what I can, but the frame is hard to move.”
