New guy's Jeep in a box(es)

Post by jeeps8 »

Hi all,just wanted to introduce myself. My name is Mike and I live in St. Louis. I have recently finished my first project, at least 90% of it, and the new one showed up a couple of days ago.

This is my 76 CJ-7 I have owned for 20 years. I just finished with a 383 swap among alot of other things.
The new project has been in the family for about 35 years and has been sitting for the last 31 of those years. I did ride in it when i was 5. Now its in my hands and its time to make it whole.
It's a 1952 M38 in the 53,300 serial number range range. I am lucky enough because it is complete with the original parts. My plan is to return it to complete stock. Oh boy, where to start?

I look forward to picking some brains here in the future if i can't find the info in a search, or if i get a little lazy. Thanks all and thanks to the founders for having this site and letting me in.

Looks like a good project unit. I believe I can see a rear seat frame and a under the hood battery box. Looks like the only biggy is the 15" wheels. Please be sure to fill out our group's M37 survey form and email it to me.
