1952 M-38A1 Air Force Jeep Austin, TX **SOLD**

• CATEGORIES: M-38A1 • TAGS: , , This site contains affiliate links for which I may be compensated.

UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $7500.

(12/01/2017) “This is an original Air Force Jeep used to shuttle crew to and from flight lines. Also used for taxi-ing incoming and outgoing planes.
This vehicle still has the original 24 volt system, black out lights all work, Original canvas seats. Original engine, transmission and transfer case work just fine. New brakes all around, new tires, rebuilt carburetor. This is not a restored vehicle, this is “as found”. The side windows are roll up crank and work fine. The numbers painted on the door match the numbers on the dash data plate which also match the number on the chassis data plate. Only issue still remaining is it needs a good alignment. Have clean title but is not yet licensed.”

Year? Swamp Rig Lake Placid, FL **SOLD**

• CATEGORIES: Other 4x4s • TAGS: This site contains affiliate links for which I may be compensated.

UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $2750

This might be a WWII chassis. The transmission crossmember mount is early and it looks like this may have had a driver’s side spring helper.

“New transmission, full time 4 wheel drive runs good”

1946? CJ-2A Bradleyville, MO $1500

• CATEGORIES: CJ-2A • TAGS: , This site contains affiliate links for which I may be compensated.

I’m not convinced this is a ’46. It’s unusual to see a Bobcat fiberglass hood this far east.

“46 Willies. Motor and tranny is in bed for it.”
