These are not the correct URL's to link your post to flicker's photos. I just open them in flicker and split the image to inspect it's parts then select source and the individual copies of the photos and then I pick a size that fits out web site's posting limit and paste the correct URL for that specific photo.
Remember anytime you try to link a stored on the web photo you must use a URL that does not require our web site to have a password to access it. You do this on most sites by making the photos public.

On another note it only took me 2 minutes to download your 6 photos from flicker and load them into the album I opened for you last week:

Here are your photos loaded to your post from your Mjeeps photo album:

Thought I bought a cj2a turns out it’s a m-38.

Hi Isaac, that is right in a way, it's an M38 with a 2A windshield..

Lot of civilianization of the old girl but she is in nice shape. Shame you didn't post photos of the interior, dash and engine compartment. That radiator and electric fan setup looks interesting as does the spread in the center grill bars!

Good morning. RickG that is right is does have the 2a windshield. WesK I am thankful you’re well rehearsed in the process of uploading/downloading pictures to this site. I however am not and apologize for the wrong “url’s“. I have loaded more pics on the Flickr page but am not at a computer to properly upload them to this site. I will do this when I have some down time. I have drove the m-38 the past few days and it does really good. Very impressed and thankful of the work that had been done to it before I purchased it. It was a labor of love for a man that has now passed on. He owned it since 73. I don’t think he really knew what he had as I received a display piece he made that stated the frame was a 45 cj2a, the motor was from a 48 cj2a and the body was a 52 cj2a with the 45 cj2a windshield. Either he knew what he had and kept it secret or was misinformed. Either way it is truly a one of a kind and will live on in my family for years to come.

The Jeep has good potential! Get that electric fan out of there and straighten the grill bars! That is a affront to all Jeeps, LOL.
The frame is late M38, so 1952. The body is M38 for sure although not enough pictures to determine early or late. Windshield may not be CJ2A as it does not have the embossed "Willys" in it, more likely a MB windshield or reproduction.

The MB windshield is shorter than the 2A's. It will only work with the WWII hard & soft tops.

maybe a repro or modified then. CJs have embossed Willys on them.

Be good to see some more pictures. Id like to see under the hood, and the inside of the hood itself. Just curiosity.

No bolt heads showing on the windshield for the rod holders for the top as typ on the 2A.
