Willys M38 in MREDC pattern

Post by Roberto67 »

Hi, fellows!

A fellow jeeper of mine is restoring a Willys M38 jeep and he would know if this particular jeep could be restored in a MREDC camo pattern. I think this scheme was introduced in the US Army in 1975, so it´s quite difficult (if not impossible) to find any M38 painted so, but who knows...

Many thanks for your help! And keep´em rolling! :wink:

Hi, Rick!

Many thanks for these pics! I know both of them but I wonder is this particular vehicle was "restored" in a fantasy camo scheme or if the camo is original...

Thanks!

I would strongly suspect it's a fantasy scheme. :wink:

You would not have found a M38 serving in the front line with the US Army in 1975.
