UPDATE:  **SOLD** Was $5000.

The steering has been converted to a saginaw box. It’s mounted pretty high on the frame. A good picture from the front ought to give more info. Otherwise, it looks like a solid jeep.

“Good complete jeep for restoration back to military (several hundred dollars of parts included) or just fun CJ-5 type driver. Clean title. The jeep starts, runs and stops. Five brand new American made military non-directional tires on reconditioned rims (2 combat, 2 regular jeep). The engine has good even compression (taken 7/2013). See photo of parts included at purchase price. Carburetor needs to be replaced or rebuilt. No significant rust in the tub – good solid steel tub. Engine: Hurricane134 F head with T-90 transmission. Jeep can be seen on weekends with apt. in Dillon, MT.

UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $18,000.

This looks more like a standard M-38A1 with a rifle added. It’s missing the spare tire just off the cowl and the correct windshield. See a more original one here: http://www.m38a1.com/Models/models_106.htm

“1953 M38-A1C Willy’s Jeep w/106mm mounted recoilless rifle parade vehicle. Cannon has .50cal tracer mounted for fire adjustment also. Only 45k miles. Brand new custom made canvas seats NIB ready to install. Other extras included. Runs, drives, antique plates, clean title in hand.”

Seller lists one M-38A1 as a “1950”, but the earliest they were produced was 1952.
