UPDATE: Was listed at $1600. **SOLD**

(10/21/2013) This does not run at the moment (clutch out).

“Jeepers, creepers, have we got something for you!
Our Dad had a 1946 Willy’s Jeep that he cruised around the farm in. This vehicle has some emotional value to us, but things change. We had this Jeep tuned up several years ago, new military style tires (about five miles on them), and a new 6 volt battery, but alas the clutch went south. We discovered in the back corners of the barn additional parts such as: gas tank, radiator, front fenders, windshield, hood and front grill. We are motivated to sell, and would like to sell as a complete package. There is no title.”

Photos from Subic Bay, Philippines, Bangkok, Thailand, and More

Doug had some more (over a thousand) photos digitized from a variety of southeast Asian places from the 50s and 60s and 70s. They were taken by a man who was in the Navy and seems to have traveled or lived all over. Doug has posted over a thousand pictures on Flickr. There are both location photos and photos of business cards, which I found interesting.

See all of them here: http://www.flickr.com/photos/58451159@N00/

Here are a few closeups of photos with jeeps:

UPDATE: **SOLD** Was on eBay.

Glenn spotted this non-running FC.

“You are bidding on a 1959 FC-170 Willys Pickup.. It came out of Boulder City, Nevada owned by a miner. Been sitting for 20 years before I bought it 2 years ago. I have not tried to start it to see if it runs. It is a 6 cylinder flat head. Everything on the motor and running gear is original. Has custom made stacks. One is an exhaust stack and the other one is a coolant reservoir. It looks like it is all there as far as running gear goes. It has slight rust. Clear California title. It is registered in op. Couple of the side flat glass is cracked. What you see is what you get”

1950 M-38 Hawley, TX **SOLD**

November 24, 2013 • CATEGORIES: M-38 This site contains affiliate links for which I may be compensated.

UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $1900

“I am active duty USMC stationed in California. I purchased this jeep a few years ago to restore, but other priorities come first and I need to pass this jeep on to someone who will use it.

This is an original US Army M38 Willys jeep. The drive train is all there and the body is about 75%. I have never tried to start it but was told by the previous owner that it was running when parked. The original seats and small things like the frames and brackets for the canvas top are all missing. It has some non-original seats in it and looks like it was used as a hunting jeep at one time. No extras, no top or doors, bare bones, just what’s in the photos. I have the Tx title.

This is a good restoration project at a great price. I have restored two other jeeps and they were about in this condition when I got them, but were much more expensive.

Please contact me with an offer if interested. I am in California, but I want to sell and will actively monitor my email. I have folks in the area who will be available to show the jeep to buyers. Thanks!”
