I BELIEVE THIS TO BE A 1952 M38 WILLYS MILITARY JEEP. THE BODY DATA PLATE SAYS SERIAL NUMBER IS MC-59863. THERE IS NO TITLE WITH THIS JEEP. IT HAS THE FOLLOWING ORIGINAL EQUIPMENT: THREE SEAT FRAMES, TRANSFER CASE, TRANSMISSION, MC 80403 ENGINE, BRASS DATA PLATE ON DASH, TWO AXE BRACKETS, WINDSHIELD FRAME, HOOD, TUB, FENDERS, GRILL, TAILGATE, SEVERAL FOOTMAN LOOPS AND OTHERS. IT HAS A CJ5 DIRTY GAS TANK, CIVILIAN 15 INCH WHEELS, AVM LOCKOUT HUBS, SPRINGS HAVE BEEN REPLACED, ALL GAGES HAVE BEEN REPLACED( I DON’T KNOW IF ANY OF THESE WORK) THIS JEEP HAS BEEN CONVERTED TO 12 VOLTS. THE ENGINE HAS A CRACK AROUND THE CENTER HEAD BOLT STUD ON THE DRIVERS SIDE. IT COMES WITH A VOLKSWAGEN CARB. TURNS OVER, BUT I HAVE NOT STARTED IT, I BELIEVE THE CIVILIAN DISTRIBUTOR IS WORN. THE BRAKES DO NOT WORK AND NEED TO BE REBUILT. BOTTOM OF THE INSIDE BATTERY BOX HAS BEEN CUT OUT. THE TIRES ARE NO GOOD, JUST TO ROLL IT ON. THE ENGINE HAS A BRASS TAG ON THE DRIVERS SIDE STATED THAT THIS ENGINE WAS REBUILT BY THE RED RIVER ARSENAL AT TEXARKANA, TEXAS IN 59 AND HAS THE SAME RECONDITIONED ENGINE NUMBER ON IT THAT IS ON THE ENGINE BLOCK. I AM SELLING THIS JEEP AS A JEEP TO BE RESTORED. THE BODY HAS LOTS OF SURFACE RUST, BUT VERY LITTLE RUSTING OUT. THE FLOOR BOARDS ARE NOT RUSTED THROUGH BUT DO HAVE HEAVY PITTING. THE TOOL BOX IS IN GOOD SHAPE. THE BODY IS FAIRLY STRAIGHT. IT HAS A COAT OF GRAY PAINT OVER A COAT OF DARK BLUE(AIR FORCE MAYBE)THEN THE ORIGINAL OD GREEN PAINT. THIS WOULD MAKE A GOOD JEEP TO RESTORE. IF YOU HAVE QUESTIONS, EMAIL ME AT willysm38@sbcglobal.net
