Here’s a very nice M-38.

“In the mid nineties I did a complete body off frame restoration of this M38 over a period of 4 years spending hundreds of hours. Every part was sandblasted and refurbished with NOS and new parts used where needed to restore to original.Included is a full winter enclosure with doors and side curtains.Also included are copies of the TM9-1804A, TM9-8012, ORD 9 SNL G-8012 and an original copy of TM9-1804B dated 1952, also original jack, handle, lug wrench and canvas pouch. The engine was rebuild with new rod and main bearings, valves reground, new pistons and rings, all new gaskets and seals. The transmission and transfer case were disassembled and necessary parts replaced and new seals and gaskets. Same goes for front and rear axels and drive shafts. New brake cylinders, lines, mastercylinder and shoes were installed.

NOS (new old stock) parts are as follows: radiator, air filter and precleaner, tail gate, driver and passenger seat frames, front floor panel, spare tire rack gas can holder, top bow and brackets, 24 volt recep, underhood battery box, tool box door, seat springs, vacumn wipers, vehicle data plates, cold weather primer, muffler and tail pipe, waterproof light switches, shackles on front and rear bumpers and other small items.

A complete new waterproof wiring harness using original douglas connectors was added. two new 12 volt batteries have just been bought. All of the waterproof vent system was replaced

The old gas tank was replaced with a new repro and sealed on the inside.

Some of the features are: 24 volt electrical system with one 12v battery under the hood and another mounted in the cowl area. The distributor, spark plugs, starter, generator, horn, all electrical are waterproof along with the engine and drive train. The blackout light on the fender and all blackout lights are functional, new windshield glass and weatherstripping added, new welting added between body parts, new shocks front and rear.

Every effort was made to restore as original as possible. Since restoration I have only put about 20 miles on it mostly trailering to car shows. In 1996 It won the peoples choice award at the Ga MVPA rally in Helen, Ga. It has always been garaged. I have the original Tenn clear title dated 1980.

“Big Red” in the lobby of Warn Industries

• CATEGORIES: CJ-2A, Features, Museums, Unusual • TAGS: , This site contains affiliate links for which I may be compensated.

Doing some hub research today I ran across images of  “Big Red“, the CJ-2A that lives in the Clackamas, Oregon, facility of Warn Industries.  It’s a beautiful looking jeep that I plan to visit one of these days.

If you haven’t been to the Warn website, stop by the history page and check out the picture of the two odd jeeps taken early in Warn’s history when the shop was located in Seattle.  I contacted Warn about the photos, but they couldn’t provide any additional information about the jeeps.  I’ve never seen the body and frame modifications like those any where else.  It looks like it turned CJ-2As into a truck.

Big Red:

Here’s a shot from the 208 Sema Show from Truckin

Fire Jeep Truck in Canton, OH **SOLD**

• CATEGORIES: Features, Fire/Police/Industry Vehicles, Willys Trucks • TAGS: , This site contains affiliate links for which I may be compensated.

UPDATE:  **SOLD**  Was priced at $8000.

This is actually one of two trucks.   Both sold quickly.

“1955 Willys fire truck. A rare piece indeed. It was left alone in a storage unit since 1986. It has 3100 miles on it. The body and interior are really nice on it. With some mechanical work this baby will the hit of the parade! Siren and light work! Complete with hoses, ladder, ax and even the lantern. It does run and I have moved it forwards and back. And put it in 4×4. I tuned it up, changed the oil, flushed the gas tank. However, these are the things I know it needs: has no brakes, radiator, water pump, PTO universals.”

1956 DJ-3A Dornsife, PA eBay

• CATEGORIES: DJ-3A • TAGS: , This site contains affiliate links for which I may be compensated.

UPDATE: This is back on eBay

(01/16/2011) “This is a 1956 Willy’s Dispatcher (DJ-3A) It has been completely restored from the frame up.  It is a 4-cyl, 2-wheel drive, 3-speed on column and has 6 volt electrical system.  Frame, wheels, rear, front I beam, cross members, bumpers, and most brackets are powder coated.  Engine and trans were rebuilt.  Has new wiring harness, seats, steering wheel, carpet, door glass.  Almost every part was serviced or replaced.  All exterior bolts are stainless steel.  The only thing that is not working at the present time is the sending unit in gas tank.  It is new but when I drained the gas tank to fix a fuel leak, the sending unit stuck on empty.  I also removed the horn to paint and powder coat.  There was so much work done it was too much to list, please feel free to ask questions.  Original mileage is 8287; roughly 300 miles of this is since restore was completed.  This vehicle is not inspected due to being registered in PA as a classic vehicle…it is not required.”

Here’s a good looking CJ-3B.

“THIS 1954 WILLYS CJ3B (HIGH HOOD) WAS FRAME OFF RESTORED ABOUT 7 YEARS AGO AND DRIVEN VERY LITTLE SINCE. IT WAS PURCHASED FROM THE ORIGINAL OWNERS SON, AFTER HIS DAD PASSED. IT HAS ALWAYS BEEN IN ARIZONA, ON A RANCH, EXCEPT FOR THE LAST 6 YEARS. THE ORIGINAL OWNERS SON HAD THE JEEP RESTORED AFTER HIS DAD PASSED. THE SON HAD TO SELL THE RANCH ALONG WITH SOME OTHER THINGS, INCLUDING THIS WILLYS. IT IS AN EXTREMELY SOLID HIGH HOOD AND WAS KEPT COMPLETELY STOCK, RIGHT DOWN TO THE 4 CYLINDER ENGINE AND THE 3 SPEED TRANSMISSION. IT WAS PAINTED ISLAND GREEN, WICH WAS A FACTORY COLOR IN 1954. IT HAS THE SO CALLED “ZIPPER TIRES” MOUNTED ON STOCK STEEL WHEELS, INCLUDING THE SPARE. THE MOTOR AND TRANSMISSION WERE ALSO GONE THROUGH AT THE TIME OF THE RESTORATION. ALSO COMES WITH A VERY NICE BLACK SOFT TOP AND DOORS. THIS JEEP RUNS EXCELLENT AND IS A BLAST TO DRIVE!! IT IS A VERY NICE EXAMPLE OF A WILLYS CJ3B AND ANYONE WOULD BE PROUD TO OWN IT.”
