1959 M-38A1 Collierville, TN **SOLD**

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

UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $2600.

(01/16/2011) This looks like a good little runner for a reasonable price.  The body does have a few body patches.

“1959 Willys Jeep CJ5 with about 27,000 miles on the speedometer (speedometer was disconnected when I bought the Jeep). 3-speed with high/low range and 4×4. Has the front locking hubs. 12-volt system. Rebuilt starter motor and carburetor last week.

Wheels are 15 inch and in great condition with good Michelin 33×12.5 tires on them with good tread remaining. Previous owner invested over $900 in wheels and tires alone.

A few small rust spots under the paint and it is not a professional paint job but it looks good. The jeep does have a rust hole in the glove box and in the compartment under the passenger seat as well as some through the back bumper. There are metal plates screwed on across the back, in the bed, and on the front floors due to rusting of the original metal I presume. Some fiberglass repairs have been made on the back fenders also. Overall it is a very solid jeep.

It runs strong with no problems, starts and drives great. Previous owner took the glass out of the windshield frame. Needs turns signals, brake light wires connected,, and a windshield.

I have a top and two doors from a Humvee that I’ll include with the jeep. They are in good condition except for a hole in one of the plastic windows. They would need customizing to be able to be put on the jeep though.”

There looks like some value.  The seller needs to sell, so make offer.

“This is a 1953 M38A1 Willy’s Jeep. The body has some rust with some small holes. The Jeep was bought to be a restoration project, but currently I have other projects. The Jeep does have the original drive train, including carburetor, engine, transmission, transfer case, and front and rear wheel axles. The electrical system was converted to 12V system before I purchased it in 2010. The Jeep does have the original data plate and VIN number plate. The Jeep is not currently running due to the fact it needs wiring and a battery. This Jeep would be a GREAT restore project OR great for parts! . When I purchased the Jeep it did NOT come with a Title, however we did register the Jeep in the state of Georgia with a bill of sale. I am asking 1200.00 or best offer! PLEASE feel free to make a offer, it needs to be sold!!!!!”

1952 M-38A1 Phoenicia, NY **SOLD**

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

UPDATE: **SOLD** Was on eBay

“For your consideration a 1952 Willys M38a1 military jeep.   Serial  # 17543,  dod.  9/52, making it an early example with the thumbscrew battery box lid, hinged front grill,  rare original slanted seam front fenders, and the narrow early bumper undamaged.

Runs great, with no smoke or knocks. The engine is totally original with the 24 volt system and all waterproof accessories (distributor, carb, generator, regulator). Transmission and transfer case shift smoothly and quietly. Brakes are inoperative due to bad master cylinder.

Was a municipal vehicle used for off road search and rescue (seldom)   It was well maintained and not abused, spent most of its time in storage. Has the original seats, cushions, rear seat, and 50’s dated tires. (pass seat not shown but included)  Body has very minimal rust, surface rust  mostly in a few spots, and a couple small dings. Frame and springs are excellent. Has all original dashboard and data plates.  Windshield frame is very good shape also.

Would make an excellent easy restoration candidate, as it has not been modified in civilian hands. Never had a snowplow mounted. Never had locking hubs installed. Never been registered on the road.  Has one of the best original condition body’s that I have seen”
