“I have owned this jeep for 24 years, restored it and drove it in parades and entered a couple car shows as well. Health problems have kept me from maintaining it the way it should be and I no longer have a garage to store it in or work on it. It has some rust on driver side front fender, passenger side under door, and floor pans. The frame is solid, motor was rebuilt in 2001 and has low miles on it. Jeep has not been started in several years so the gas tank will need to be cleaned out thoroughly. Many extras like mud/snow tires and wheels, military manual, old parts, and contacts for every nut bolt and screw. This would make a great restoration project since M38s
are rare and this one has only 42,456 original miles.”

“All original!! Original four-cylinder 60hp motor, all lights in working order that air raid light/blackout light is the light on the fender as well as the headlights even the gauge lights work! Tires are almost new but I have been driving it quite a bit lately… Original windshield wipers that are exhaust fed, original front and rear seats, original plates on the dashboard As well as all the brackets on the bumpers for lifting and towing… original even down to the front tow rope. Too many extra list!

Mechanically this jeep is amazing! The brakes have been re-done recently you can see it in the photos… This jeep goes maximum speed of 50 miles an hour most of these jeeps only go 30 to 35… It’s reliable starts every time even when it hasn’t been driven for weeks! Transmission is great all the gears work including the low and high, all the axles work, this is a running machine and I’ve been using it to drive my daughter to school each day and take the family out on rides on the weekends.

No tire kickers please serious inquiries only! I don’t have time for time wasters that have a lot of questions and want to talk about history… Serious callers only… Text is great and if we want to proceed we can talk on the phone…”
