“1951 M38 Willys Jeep 24 Volt and M100 Trailer. New fuel tank, lines, and gauge. Rebuilt carburetor. New spark plugs and wires, NOS coil, distributor. Rebuilt starter. Reupholstered the front seat with extra material for the rear seats. The engine was rebuilt in 1995 with 28,131 miles on the odometer and current mileage 37,960. The rear #4 cylinder(closet to the firewall) is at 75psi on the first pass, then up over 100psi on the 2nd pass. The mechanic believes it could be a simple valve adjustement or ring replacement.

This is a good price for how nice this jeep is. Thanks to Tom for sharing it. As of this writing the sale is pending. It has a problem continuing to run. There could be something in the gas tank (maybe some customer dropped something into the gas tank).

“Korean War 1952 Willys M38. Starts easy. Doesnt stay running, stalls. Maybe bad fuel pump. Vehicle is located inside retail store so its difficult to work on it without fuming up the whole place. All 24v components in place. Correct carb, fuel pump, distributor, voltage regulator, generator. Vehicle is clean, no mud, oil, grime underneath or on engine or transmission. Body is original, decent shape – a little beat up. Floor in back has rust holes, but is pretty solid. 30 cal is a replica made by Hoosier Hot Shot https://www.hoosierhotshot.com/ and is not included. Mount is negotiable. Indiana title numbers matching in my name is included. Vehicle will have to be disassambled to move from the retail store when a serious buyer is found. All the bolts holding it together are new and have never been in the weather. We should be able to do it in a day or so. We will do the dissassembly and reassembly. Buyer can help if they want.”
