Hi Steve,
AAAARRRRGH! NO, NO, NO!!! Don't sell your M38CDN. I sold mine to a friend but I deeply regret this move. To replace this jeep, I bought a M151A2 and I have a 1945 Willys MB but, none of these jeeps can replace my M38CDN affectionately called "Charlie". Even my wife was sad when my M38CDN left home.
I have a Chevy G7107 almost rebuilt and as soon as this truck will be on the road, I will try to swap it for another M38CDN. I’m born in the world of HMVs collection with a M38CDN and I believe this jeep (Canadian and American) is the best one to have in a collection.
Cheers
PS: SNIF! She's in good hands but I miss "Charlie" anyway.

Hi Jack the Bear,
Together we will convince Steve to keep his M38CDN Seriously, I'm convinced that if Steve sells his jeep, he will leave it in the hands of someone who deserves a M38 jeep and who will give it great care.

Hi Steve,
Yes, driving a Chevy G506 is as easy as a jeep. The problem with all HMVs that are bigger than a Dodge WC is the space to park them. I'm happy to have rebuilt my Chevy from the ground to top but it will be my money change to have another M38CDN in few years. My purpose will be to rebuild one as a RCAF jeep with the markings of the 425 Tactical Fighter Squadron (Skylark), this squadron which is posted at the CFB Bagotville in Quebec.
Cheers and Merry Christmas _________________ Guy aka M38CDNBill
