|

Guys,
I have a lot of M38 information gathered, organized with photos, documentation, etc. on M38 factory stuff. It is by no means the answer to every question, but there are numerous photos of parts, when and were things go, etc.
This work is still in progress and you can see some of the early examples on the yahoo storage sites under the files sections. The yahoo sites are not large enough to hold all this information and I don't have the space here to put it all on the website unless I fork out a lot more money. We are going to move the info currently on the yahoo sites to this one, but that info is only the tip of the iceberg.
I was curious as to how many would be interested in such a publication keeping in mind all proceeds would go to more M series research and documentation preservation (getting factory/military documentation scanned into a digital format to share with everyone).
Access and searchability of factory/military documentation is difficult at best due to several factors. However, those that have this information that we have been in contact with want to get as much information into a digital format for preservation and to make it accesable to everyone.
What do you think? remember Profits go to preserve all Willys Overland M series vehicle information (military and civilian). _________________ Ryan Miller

Galen,
Thanks! The material is still in the works, I am thinking it will be ready in the next year. I have already spent 2 years on it, but it has been a lot of fun and I have made some really good friends. I think it will help a lot of other M38 people, which is our goal here. _________________ Ryan Miller
