UPDATE:  **SOLD** Was $6500

(07/09/2013) It appears there has been some work near the steps on both sides. It looks sound otherwise.

It has a 4-cyl (not the original flat head) electronic ignition engine with the original three speed transmission, four-wheel drive and hi and lo range. It runs well needs nothing to enjoy for what it is.
It has all new wiring and lighting, gauges all work, new brake lines and frame is completely painted as well. It is Military OD green has a roll bar for added protection with the flip up back seat and high back buckets. It also has a brand new 12000 winch.
This is great for a camp or driving to local shows…it won’t be the winner but it does get all the attention. Also has a detachable draw tite tow bar for towing to the sippy hole!
It is on the road so if you would like to come have a look and go for a ride please”

If the underside rust is nil, given the motor change and the gutter rot this would be a good candidate for Tour Wagon.

There is some parts value here. I thought the hardtop was interesting.

“I have a M38A1 Jeep that I need to let go. I’m not going to lie, it needs work. The body has a lot of rust from sitting on the west side most of its life. It has been converted from 24V to 12V, but the rewire job is not complete. It comes with two motors. The original motor needs barrings and has been removed. The motor in it is from a ’47 Jeep and only has 30k miles on it. It is a project and as much as I would like to invest the time and money, I lack both. There is NO TITLE and it will need to be towed away. Will consider all reasonable offers.”

The Odograph: A Robot Mapper

An article about the Odograph was published in the December, 1944, issue of Popular Science. At 200 pounds, the Odograph auto-created maps as soldiers navigated towards some objective. I couldn’t locate any records that indicate how many were made (anyone know), but there it appears there are nine jeeps that still have them (based on the latest info I could find). I found a few different references about it over at G503.

Pilonidal Sinus: The Jeep Disease

October 1, 2013 • CATEGORIES: Features This site contains affiliate links for which I may be compensated.
1

I’d never heard of the disease. Pilonidal Sinus is called the Jeep Disease or Jeep Seat (and probably others). I’ve taken the following paragraphs below from a Canadian link:
http://www.canada.com/topics/bodyandhealth/men/story.html?id=ac51b5e9-23a4-42c9-be8c-19a55aa0a8dc

“Pilonidal sinus most commonly affects that area known affectionately as the butt crack, though it can show up in the belly button, genital region, even between the fingers. Basically, it’s an infected area under the skin, frequently containing a tuft of hair. Think of it as a nasty, hairy, painful tunnel and you wouldn’t be far wrong. Often it starts with ingrown hairs, although new evidence shows that’s not always the case. There’s a genetic component; it tends to run in families, and it’s more prevalent among hairy guys, and those who sweat a lot.

According to a document co-authored by Prof. Keith Harding, the head of surgery at the University of Wales, the condition is 10 times more common in adult males than in adult females.

Harding notes that it was called “jeep disease” in the Second World War since it affected many soldiers who sat for long periods on hard seats.”
