“1953 Willy’s Marine Jeep (M38A1)

We had a ton of fun with this Jeep through this past summer when we blew the motor. Motor is out and disassembled. Floorboards rusted badly.

New gas tank, new master cylinder and new wheel cylinders all replaced 2 years ago. Radiator and hoses in great shape. Comes with soft top not pictured, but in great shape.

Would make a good Jeep project, but I’m not interested in restoring…looking to sell, $2500 or best offer or partial trade on Wrangler.”

UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $1000

Might be a good parts jeep. 5 speed engines?

UPDATE:**SOLD** Was $1100.

It runs and drives. Can’t see much from the pic, but it looks stock.
