Wagon at Nick’s Cove in Marshall, Ca

• CATEGORIES: Features, Willys Wagons This site contains affiliate links for which I may be compensated.

Yesterday Ron contacted me, asking if I had see the wagon on the Can-Am commercial.  Well, I couldn’t remember seeing a Can Am commercial.

Then, last night I was watching the Temple/USF game and updating eWillys when I looked up to see Can-Am flash across the screen.  I thought to myself, I wonder if that was the commercial Ron mentioned.  So, I rewinded it and spotted the wagon.  There it was, very briefly shown in the background.  A red wagon with white trim sporting the name Nick’s Cove.  After a quick search that focused on Nick’s Cove only.  I found the pic below.  Thanks Nick!

Nick’s cove is a small town in Marshall, Ca, along highway 1 near the Point Reyes’ National Seashore in Calfornia.

1951 M-38 Aguanda, Ca **SOLD**

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

UPDATE: **SOLD** Was on eBay.

Vic has this jeep for sale on eBay.

This 1951 Willys M38 jeep is a roller project. It is full of history and a lot of its civilian life is known. From what we can gather, it was purchased from the military by a California school district in 1959, then sold in 1983. It has been parked on a ranch in southern California since 1983. It has an RMC-numbered engine which means that sometime between 1951 and 1959 when the civilian title was issued, the original engine blew and was replaced by the factory rebuilt RMC code engine. This code is the vehicle ID number listed on the title. This engine had been removed from the jeep and was found amidst a pile of Willys parts…a true miracle. This engine of course is included with the M38 (see pix). It consists of the block only and has some issues, among them a broken valve and a lot of dirt. Also included are 2 flywheels (one for the big clutch and one for the small for the T90), floorpan for over the transmission, exhaust/intake manifolds, a flexplate, and 2 stock rear bumpers. It is a 24-volt jeep and the plug on the passenger side is intact.
Serial number for this M38 is 30118, delivered 8-51. All ID and serial number code plates are intact. This jeep is being sold with the 1959 title. There are no license plates.

Body: This poor jeep has received at least 3 paint jobs over the original military green…grey, red and finally, yellow, plus undercoating that is peeling off. Any rust that is visible is surface rust. The floorpan is solid with the exception of one corner of the front passenger floor (see pic), there is a small hole there. The hood has a part that was cut out on the right side and it has cracked there. The tailgate is beat up and the rear bumpers are busted (2 excellent ones are included to replace these). There are many dings and marks but all in all, the body is solid. The windshield is missing and the side mirror is broken. There is a crease on the right quarter panel and also some damage to the right front fender (see pic). The rear lights plastics are in poor condition. … (read more on eBay)”

1949 Jeepster Longview, WA **SOLD**

• CATEGORIES: Jeepster • TAGS: This site contains affiliate links for which I may be compensated.

UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $3495

(01/23/2012) This project appears to have potential.

“THIS IS NOT A RUNNING VEHICLE. I have a project that I recently purchased that is just not a good fit for me or my garage right now. It is a 1949 2 Wheel Drive Jeepster by Willy’s. I bought a few months ago after it had sat in dry storage for a number of years. It looks like a mid 80’s restoration to me. The body is in remarkable condition and the vehicles is for the most part 100% complete (I threw away the top). It was originally a Butternut yellow color. The current paint is passable as driver quality. The running gear is a 1973 Buick 350 and matching bop transmission, the original rearend is still in the vehicle.There is a nice Ron Franicis wiring harness installed complete. The engine is out on a stand and needs rebuilt or go the SBC route. I curently have the front sheetmetal off and stored, there is no radiator. All of that said this a really fun vehicle that would be great with a little work as a driver or do a complete restoration. I am not selling because I need the money and the price is reasonalbly firm. I am however very open to trades which might include: 68-72 Nova, second gen camaro or other muscle cars,”

6000 Miles: From Maine to Hawaii with Love (For Jeepsters)

• CATEGORIES: Features, Jeepster, Reader Stories This site contains affiliate links for which I may be compensated.

Glenn wrote this nice story which was published in the June 2010 issue of Jeepster News.


(ABOVE:) At The Pearl Harbor Memorial- ’50 Willys Jeepster, Left- Randy Spangler,  Middle- Glenn  Byron, Right- Maurice Goguen.

EAST MEETS WEST – 6000 MILE JEEPSTER EVENT By Glenn Byron

Sometimes we take for granted the many benefits our membership in WOJC [Willys Overland Jeepster Club] pro- vides. For example, that booklet you received titled “ WOJC 2010 ROSTER” is just something that arrives. Larry & Shirley Wozniak volunteered a bunch of time and effort to get this quality product to club members. Using it as a tool is a bonus for paying our meager dues. Let’s look at where this can take us. Recently, in planning for a cruise to visit our 50th state, Hawaii, I noticed a scheduled one day port call in Honolulu.

Just for kicks, I grabbed that Roster to see if we had members there. Garage tours and visits with other enthusiasts are always great sidelines to get away from usual tourist activities. Sure enough, all of Hawaii has one lonely WOJC member, Randy Spangler, right there in Honolulu. A quick email to Randy to intro- duce myself and inform him of my visit, yielded a friendly response with encourage- ment to see what we could put together. Nothing concrete, just loose parameters to keep both of us available as all the unknowns could allow. Our first port was Hilo, on the big island of Hawaii, with Honolulu, on Oahu, the following day. “Call me from Hilo and we’ll see what the cards hold” was Randy’s invitation. Here’s how it came down.


ABOVE: Randy Spangler’s Island Cruiser, a ’50 Willys Jeepster mounted on a Chevy Blazer chassis- A great performing unit for Boulevard or Beach. 

Three couples on a cruise ship make too large a load for a Willys Jeepster, so careful strategy had to happen to be sure no one felt compromised. The girls were anxious to see Waikiki Beach, and with great personal sacrifice, I crossed that off my list. The other two guys, though not car oriented, agreed to back seat status and a full load resulted. Contact with Randy was made from Hilo and plans laid down for Willys Jeepster to meet Golden Princess at the dock in Honolulu. How’s that for a welcoming committee? Heads turn when ever we put our Jeepsters on display, but this may be a first! Randy’s 1950 Jeepster is especially suited to the hustle and bustle of Oahu gridlock traffic.

(03/16/2012) Moving and needs to sell.

“Just found out I am moving, if this does not sell by the end of the month I will take it to the scrap yard and avoid another month of fees on storage. Come load it up take it home. have about 2 dozen more pictures. I Have a WWII production, late model 1941 willys MB, not a first production with a slat grill.
-T 84 transmission
-dana 18 transfer case
-Dana 25 front axle
-Dana 27 rear axle

The previous owners put a v8 and cherry bomb exhaust in it and ran it like that. The motor is junk. The body needs work but Kaiserwillys . com sells new body panels and full tubs for what you want to replace. The floors are rotted through but the side panels fenders, hood and frame are solid. Someone welded around the bed and put a roll bar on for hunting purposes. Rims are solid not split. This would be a good for restore if you wanted to put it back to original, but when completed a 1942 MB goes for about $22,000 on average as most that hit the streets in the US were battle damaged. Or if you wanted just to get it running with a new engine and seats and take it trailer riding. This is a WWII military piece of history and I cannot bring myself to junk it. BUT I could sell the frame, transmission, transfer case and axles and scrap the rest and make $800, I just don’t have the time to put into the restore while working 60-70 hours a week. I was going to put a 1.6l VW diesel engine in it and run it around town… I have that for sale as well on another ad. Text 210-551-9739 OR email me(Do not call I don’t answer numbers that I do not know). I have about 20 more pictures I can email. I will help load you will need a trailer.”
