New member with a 53' M38a1

Post by Beast »

Hello all. I recently picked up this 53' M38a1 while at Dayton for the MVPA show. It had been previously restored around 12 years ago in Florida and was a clean rust free Jeep. My plans are for a mild restoration as it really only needs fresh paint and correct markings and a few small odds and ends. The joy of it was that being at the show I was able to start to grab a few of the missing items for it. I'm looking forward to my latest project as this will make the 5th military vehicle in my collection. 4 trucks and 1 trailer.
