I am looking for 2 OLD STYLE M38a1 wheels. These are the ones without a flat spot where the center meets the rim. I am also looking for a spare tire carrier - the M38a1 style that is welded instead of bolted together.

Thanks for adding the visual aides Wes!
John, do you still have originals for sale? I have a line on the wheels fairly close by and have one other place to check about the carrier. _________________ Matt

Thanks John. I have located several original wheels/tires. I will be taking possession of them at the Denton rally in April (I'm not in a big hurry to get them). I am still looking for a late, welded tire carrier. I am also needing 1 bumperette and late style(?) USMC top bow brackets. Prefer original parts, but will buy repro, US made as last resort. I heard the top bow brackets were different from the regular type with the wing screw that holds them in. Can someone confirm or deny this? Also, are all bumperettes the same from MB to M151? _________________ Matt
