UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $20.
Good price. Somehow, someone reattached the windshield backwards?
Steve shared this carved pumpkin with a Willys-ish grille. It might be a few slots/tines short of a full grille, but it does the job! Happy Halloween!
We were on the road all day, so just a few updates today. Ann and I drove over to Kelso to see the Bobcat and Parkette fiberglass molds Al Schaper and I bought back in 2015 and meet with Jerry, a guy who has agreed to buy them. He is the same person involved in the production of the RCD fiberglass hoods that appeared on the market. He’s hoping to expand the offering of fiberglass products for the old flat fenders. Jerry’s been a long time jeep guy and is currently building a CJ-3B. So, stayed tuned!
Now for the requests:
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $5500.
This M-38 might have a replacement body. I can’t tell for sure.
“selling for friend, 1951 wi llys jeep, great condition, 4 cyl. runs great, call for more info.”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $5400.
Might be a good price.

UPDATE: Seller is now advertising a 3A hood as well. Both were $350/each. The seller is currently not making hoods.
3A: looks a little like a cut down 3B hood, as it looks like there is the 3B horizontal bubble at the base of the hood where it meets the fender.

“1943 Willys with 20,000 miles on the odometer! Original flathead 4 cylinder engine runs perfect. It also has the coveted warn overdrive behind the original 3 speed trans and tranfercase. This is pretty much a turn key vehicle. I’d trust it to drive me anywhere. It comes with a tow bar to pull behind a truck or rv. I have doors and I have a set of original Willys wheels with military tires for it as well. We’ve been back and forth on selling it, and we’ve decided it’s time to let it go. I just had the carb rebuilt yesterday and have a receipt to prove it. I drove it nearly every day all summer, and it never failed me. I’ll consider an offer from serious buyers, but please don’t waste my time on a low ball offer. This jeep is the real deal, and I’ll keep it before I give it away for dirt cheap”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $9500.
Looks in good shape.
“1952 Marine Corps built Jeep Willys in good condition. I am currently unable to get it to start ( not very mechanically inclined.) however it did run for several months when I bought it, very fun and a great project vehicle.
