1950s USAREUR MP Jeep

Post by thomasarnold »

Hi Folks,

Just finished a couple of add-ons on my MP Jeep and wanted to share with the site. The sign is made from a metal disc that attaches to a custom made bracket which mounts to the spare tire utilizing the two unused lug nut holes. Text and graphics are spray painted, no vinyl lettering.

Hey we're almost neighbors!! I'm over in Newnan. I have a M606 (cj3b) that I'm restoring to a Vietman war MP vehicle. You have an great looking Jeep. I could use some ideas on Military marking for a MP vehicle. Here's a pic of mine in OD.

I be darned. Did not know that a fellow 'Jeep-Nut' lives so close by. Thanks for the comment on my Jeep - yours looks very good too.

Let me know what you want to know about MP Jeeps. I will try to answer what I can (and make up the rest)... :P

Greetings,

The frame is for my jeep, I just finished cleaning, painting it, it is from a '60 model CJ3B. I have a tub I'm working on too in the garage. How do I find out what numbers to use. I don't want to hijack your thread so I'll PM you with questions.

Just wanted to say hi from a fellow Georgian! You MP jeep looks great! I am working on completing my 51 M38 MP jeep. I just recently installed a 24 volt siren. It will never look as fine as your 52.
