M38A1 in FL Junkyard

Post by 49tandc »

I found a '52 A1 in a North FL junkyard. I got the data tags off it - 11/52 - s/n 28282. The rest of vehicle in pretty sorry shape. Bubba tossed the rear seat & cut a tailgate in it. Has drivers & pass seats; hardtop - non mil. F-head motor is there with trans, but wrong carb & missing dizzy. Air cleaner rusty & missing pre-cleaner. Horn looked OK, but I left it. Has OK-shape hinged grille & BO lights, but hood/fenders torn up & rusty. Gauges busted, wrong reflectors/taillights.

It would take some effort to get the gas tank out to see if it was any good.


Just put the #'s in the M38A1 database. This one would get crushed pretty soon

A few years I almost saved one from the crusher. :(
