Ewan's 1952 M38 project

Post by wallisek »

I picked up my next Jeep project yesterday, 1952 M38. Frame, body, grille fenders, hood, seats, and tailgate. No suspension, axles or drive train. The frame and body is in great condition, some dings here and there but nothing rotting except for the floor. No hack jobs either, I couldn't find any extra holes. :D I joined this forum a couple years back when I obtained an M38A1 in trade. I ended up parting with that project and picking up a 79 CJ5 which I still have. Anyways, as much as I'd like to start this project, I have another in the works which has been put off long enough. I need to finish my Lotus 7 replica this winter and hopefully start on this M38 by spring / summer 2016.

It really is a nice photo showing how small these vehicles are,
that the tub including steps will fit in a standard pickup bed.

Got to appreciate the irony of that brand new looking parking
brake cable.

Send photos when you get started!
