1954 M-38A1 The Woodlands, TX **SOLD**

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

UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $7500.

“This is an original military Jeep from the Korean war years. Excellent condition, fun to drive! This is the real deal!

The 1954 M38A1 Willy’s Overland Jeep is the first Military Jeep to have the rounded front fenders so commonly associated with Jeeps. The M38A1 was produced between 1952 and 1957, and only 80,290 were produced for military use. Most of these Jeeps have been lost forever, however some still exist. Most of these Jeeps are in poor condition, and require a great deal of money to restore.

My Jeep was reportedly owned by a military man who planned to restore it in Hopkinsville, Kentucky. In 1994, I found this Jeep in an old junkyard in Chattanooga, TN under an old tarp (it did not run, but it had virtually no rust). Over the years I brought the Jeep to life.

Jeep Notables:
The engine and running gear were rebuilt to original specs by Vintage Jeeps Inc. 2008. The 24 volt system was converted to a 12 volt system for reliability *** The generator was replaced with an alternator for efficiency *** The Wiring was replaced and the fuse block is now protected within a waterproof box *** Both seats are original with NOS canvas
NOS vacuum assist Wiper Motors come with the Jeep (not currently on the Jeep) ***
Original data plates and 1955 M38A1 Operators Maintenance Manual included.”

Eric spotted this original M-38A1. This has the hinged grille, so it should be a ’52 or ’53.

1952 M-38A1 Hillsboro, OH **SOLD**

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

UPDATE: **SOLD** Was on eBay

At a start price of M-38A1, this looks like a solid jeep.

“his jeep has a ford 302 mated to the original drive train which is a 3spd transmission with a twin stick transfer case and 5.38 positive tract differentials. it has good 31×10.5×15 tires and ford turbine wheels. we welded new sides on the jeep (14 gauge steel). it has fiberglass front fenders and a roll cage (full). the top is not in the best condition. the seats came out of a 66 mustang, i believe…. my whole family used to go trail riding and this was my grandfathers jeep, however we all quit going and he would like to sell it. so i offered to put it ebay for him. it was great on the trail by the way! it has been just setting around for 5 yrs or so and probably needs the average maintenance, (filters and fluid changed). it does start and runs though all the gears just fine. oh it also has a new gas tank in it and probably other things that im forgetting. any questions shoot me and email, thanks
pick up only.”

Year? M-38A1 Georgetown, CA $2000

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

No pics provided. No title.

“I have a nearly complete, mostly un-molested M38-A1 project jeep. This Jeep came out of Nevada about 15 years ago, and the paperwork has been lost. It is mostly complete and stock. Original F-head 4-cylinder, 3-speed transmission, ..stock suspension, tires, wheels. The tires are shot from sitting. The body is mostly straight, with a small amount of minor rust. It is not cut up or damaged other than the right front fender being bent, probably fix-able. Steering, brakes, etc. all original. The seat frames are there, with cushions, but no upholstery, and the cushions would only be useful for patterns. The windshield is intact with good glass. It has bumpers that are not stock, and also has a tow bar on the front. This is a “barn find” I have not tried to start it yet (engine is NOT seized). I may consider offers and trade. Pictures available on request.”

1955 M-38A1? Henderson, NV **SOLD**

• CATEGORIES: CJ5, M-38A1 This site contains affiliate links for which I may be compensated.

UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $1900.

This looks more like a CJ-5 than a M-38A1. No shots of the dash to confirm.  This might be worth a look.

The passenger fender needs some paint and this might tilt to the driver’s side, but otherwise this looks solid.
