Here is my Engine, Casting Number is 638632 and for sure has a MB Serial Number. Although I could not tell you the rest off the top of my head. And I do have the Early M38 Bell Housing cover plate.

It couldn’t be this easy could it?

Truck DC 24v to 12v Step Down Converter Reducer Regulator 1.5A 18W Power Supply Adapter for Auto Car Bus Van Vehicle Boat Solar System etc.(Accept DC15-40V Inputs)

But I would need a 24V generator to keep the batteries charged.

I have some time before I get close to this, but I want to start thinking about this and plan.

My M38 came with a MB Engine and 12V system to start up the engine. None of the gauges worked and the only lights that worked were the headlights. I haven’t checked if the gauges and other lights are 12V ...

Thanks guys for the encouragement!! :D

I won’t get to see the Jeep for a while, but will be buying what I need over the next couple of months. Goals for the end of summer!!

Are there any differences between the MB and MC Engines? Tried searching the fourms and could not find a topic on this.

My 1951 M38 came with an MB engine.

Ron,

Here is the photo I am looking for. It is taken from the right side.

Absolutely. I will get that posted tomorrow afternoon.

Wanted to add some of the known issues I have with the Jeep that I will have to address at some point during the project. If you ever encountered these issues feel free to let me know how you fixed it. I would appreciate the help.

Thanks Ron for updating that photo! There is one thing I would like to ask of you. If you still have the bumper off of yours could you take a picture of that part of the frame from a downward angle looking inward? I assume that the top and outside side part are connected, but just want to make sure ...

I am sorry Ron, I should of had that picture labeled ALOT better. And if you don’t mind please edit your post with the picture that Wes updated.

And thank you Wes for doing that and clarifying my post.

I got this Jeep back in 2011 from my Uncle that got it after doing some dozer work for a guy. After seeing the Jeep sit there for a while I asked him if he was doing anything with and he said no and said I could have it and do anything to it as long as I didn't sell it. He told me it was a 1949 Jeep ...

Alright I got that winch plate off and grind off the welds to show what is left of the original frame. And well I am pleased at what was left as I thought there would be more gone. But, I still got some work to do.

Here are the pictures of my frame:

Thanks Wes!!

Forgot to add......my M38 front bumper is off at the moment. I could take some measurements if it would help.

And just because I'm not sure...the roached out horns advertised in Georgia on flea-bay are from a M38A1........are they the same as the M38 that Ryan has?

That would be great Rob! I ...
