UPDATE: Price dropped to $3000
(11/28/2011) This appears to be a custom M-38 with a Bobcat fiberglass hood.
“I bought this off of a car lot a year ago, but, haven’t really done anything with it. My wife won’t ride in it nor let my daughter, so, looking for something else more “Family Friendly”. Guess we just aren’t an old jeep family. I’m not sure the exact year because it was green tagged by the state patrol and assigned a new vin/title. It is titled as a 1978 homemade jeep. This is the way I bought it from Biddle Chevrolet’s used car lot.
It is a 1950-52 M38 Willys military jeep that has been rebuilt/modified over the years. The body is fairly solid with some rust bubbles. It was painted in Imron 15+ years ago. I have a box of receipts dating back to the ’70s. It has an F head 4cylinder with the stock 3 speed and transfer case as well as a Warn overdrive. Everything seems to work. Front seats, steering wheel, tires/wheels look to be new. Not hacked too badly like many jeeps I looked at before buying this one. Top in good shape, jeep just needs a good home and someone who likes to tinker, starter is temperamental (you will be too at 60 years old).
I’d like a quad, should be close to equivalent value (or cash with it) with a title.”

I have e-mailed four times on this jeep and had no response . I wish people would leave a phone # on craigslist so you could call them.
Steve .. yeah, some of these ads are frustrating. I know that I tried using a yahoo account to contact craigslist ads and discovered they weren’t going through. I had to switch to a gmail account to email craigslist …
My phone is 907-747-6721. Anyway you could e-mail my # to this guy?
Steve, I don’t have any more information, but I will try emailing him. I have had luck doing that on behalf of buyers sometimes.
I will email via Craigslist right now.

you bet .. email sent. Best of luck with it!
Thanks Dave
Dave,
I did not hear anything on this jeep. Did you get any reply? Thanks,Steve
I never received anything. I’m guessing the seller doesn’t check his mail regularly or the emails are going into the junk folder.
