Mike’s 1950 CJ-V35/U was featured in a recent JP Magazine online article and will appear in print as well. He notes the article was very good overall, though there were a couple minor incorrect references.

1952 M-38 Sells for $67,200 at Barrett Jackson Event

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

This less than accurate restoration of an M-38 sold for $49,500 in 201. Then, just last month, it was auctioned for $67,500, though a portion (no note on how much) of the proceeds was supposed to go to a military charity (it remains unidentified).

Interestingly, Hagerty Insurance valued it at $10,500, which seems a pretty fair estimate.
