Will it be a New Record?

Another M38 up for auction on Bring-a-Trailer.....and from the looks of it and the bids so far it might beat the old record on the M38CDN that sold for $41,014 about one year ago (September 1, 2021).

Interesting to see! https://bringatrailer.com/listing/1952-willys-m38-13/

Here's the M38CDN current record holder: http://willysmjeeps.com/v2/modules.php? ... ic&t=13170

And the current 2nd runner up at $26,750 that sold last month: https://bringatrailer.com/listing/1951-willys-m38-3/

Hi Brian,
For us interweb challenged folks, what does "

" mean?

Hi Ron,

OMG?

The one posted here a while back as factory that sold for silly money had so much non factory stuff it wasn’t funny.

Shame.because I see both ends of the spectrum and everything in between here by you great guys and it is just sad knowing what that vehicle should have looked like.

Thing is, until I found this site I wouldn’t have known any better!

At least these sky-high prices of jeeps will not raise the property taxes on my jeep like the housing boom has done with real estate property taxes on my house.

Wow.
Not a new record, but it sold for $36,600 today.

You can't build one for much less than that...if you start off with a $8-10K run of the mill Jeep and take it to that level you might be over that price and that's still doing most of it yourself...

Do you guys remember this one:

Scottsdale 2009

1951 WILLYS JEEP CONVERTIBLE
Crossing the block at the 2009 Scottsdale Auction, this 1951 Willys represents the military roots of the Jeep. The Army Green Jeep sports telephone, radios, an operating siren, gas can, helmets and more. The ’51 Jeep sold for a final price of $104,500.
