1951 M-38 Deforest, WI $5000

• CATEGORIES: M-38 • TAGS: This site contains affiliate links for which I may be compensated.

Doesn’t run and has been sitting for 3 decades.

“This jeep has been in a storage shed for over 30 years, I have not had it running. It has a pretty solid body and has most of the original military features in tact. i.e. 24 volt electrical, headlight guards, bows, etc.. I do have a clear title which indicates the 1951 Willys status but does not reflect the same serial number?

There is a rust hole in the right rear corner and the passenger side floor board looks week, other wise pretty solid. The gas tank has been replaced by a civilian tank with smaller filler, not sure why. It does not turn over at this point, but I have not tried very hard.”

A project.

“I have here a 50s style Willy’s Jeep. I got it as a project for me to work on in my spare time. But I have not had time to track down all the parts. This Jeep would be a perfect project and once completed would make for an awesome collection.”

1951 M-38 Azusa, CA $4995

• CATEGORIES: M-38 This site contains affiliate links for which I may be compensated.

UPDATE: Price dropped to $4995

(04/08/2017) The M-38 didn’t have full floaters in the rear (see last sentence in description). Jeep looks solid.

“In 1950, Willys introduced the M-38 (identified as an “MC” by Willys), a post-WWII Jeep based on the CJ-3A and fitted will military-specific features, including a one-piece foldable windshield, bottom-mounted wipers, a pintle hook for towing, lifting shackles, and a fuel filler on the drivers side. Pioneer tools (axe and shovel) were mounted on the passenger side, and larger tires were used (7:00×16) along with a waterproof electrical system, requiring a second battery. The M38 suspension and frame were stronger than that of its civilian sibling (the CJ-3A) and had a full-floating rear axle.”
