My M38A1 is almost done!

Post by Deadguy »

This is a little collage I put together for the insurance company. Thanks to John of Midwest Military for the parts and advice and Wes Kettle for the in depth knowledge in helping me bring this to life.
It has a rebuilt engine, transmission, and transfercase. Lockers in the front and rear axles, A Ramsey 200L PTO winch, Alaska in cab heater unit, Husky overdrive, M series transistorized turn signals, working RT 70 radio, all new tries and suspension components, new gauges, 11" drum brakes, deep water fording kit, and way too many other new components to list.

Very nice. I'm doing a USMC M38A1 as well. I hope mine turns out close to as nice as yours.

Great job, that looks to be one well-equipped Jeep.
I like the fording kit and the first aid kit (I picked up one just like that at a MV event, now I know where to display it.

Thanks for posting.
