https://imgur.com/a/0YWL7Yh Would you even think of trying to bring these back to life. Number 2 jeep turns over , Number 1 jeep is frozen . bodies gone. part them out or strip to frame and see if I can get them running. |

Frame on the one that turns over is not to bad. Neither are rust thru but one has heavy pitting. Just already have 1 and a cj2a may try and rebuild the one and clean up the other to a running chassis. Maybe swap for a tub. They look like they were in barn that collapsed and filled full of pine needles. Ate it from top down. |

In my opinion, M38A1s are not that rare or valuable to sink a lot of money in trying to save these. Looks to me best to part them out for the salvageable parts. _________________ 1951 M38

That the trouble. To do it right , it would cost a pile. Do at bubba style and you have 2500 to 6000 dollar jeep that you have the same in. Still think I ll trying get at least one running. |
