Update on restoration of my M38

Post by Bobber »

Image
This is the latest pic of my 1952 m38. It was 90% complete when I got it. I have the generator and the other components for the original 24 volt system. I will run the 24 volt alt till I get the generator rebuilt. There were no fording vent llines intacked when I got it, maybe as time allows I can get it back in fording condition. Missing were gas can/holder, spare tire, B/O light, fording stuff, and hinges for the polar top. I know there were other miner things too, but a lot of it was still there. I used 90% of a 4' X 10' sheet of steal for body repair. The motor has yet to be rebuilt and the front body parts to be put on. I still have a ways to go. Most of all, this site was super valuable for what success I've had. Not to mention the expertise from some key members. Manys thanks to you gentlemen of knowledge and the willingness to share.
Thank you, Rusty
