For Sale: (Sorry Guys, the winch is NOT for sale separately)
You are looking at a 1952 Willys M38 Korean War era Jeep.
A
rare Jeep indeed.
These were only made for 3 years and is the last of the flat fender
models.
It comes with a very rare stock Ramsey Winch with original “wrench”.
The wrench is more like a bolt-on handle
to disengage the gears of the winch. That allows you to unspool the cable. The Jeep was civilianized in the early 1960’s. It does not have any
fording equipment (i.e. carb, distrib, etc.). Runs great. Original engine
L4-134. I bought this Jeep about 7-8
years ago. I had the radiator re-cored, gas tank cleaned and lined. New brakes, exhaust and new windshield
glass replaced. Added back seat frame, I reupholstered all seats. Replaced
steering wheel (original is included). Some of the interior flooring was
fiberglassed. I guess that's what folks did in the 60’s. This Jeep, body wise, has some rust, it’s not perfect but looks great for a 67 year old war veteran.
Rebuilt carb, 5 new tires. New
speedometer cable. 2 wiper vacuum motors, but I did not complete
the vacuum connection. Has dash badges. Original military light switch, trailer
light jack, but again, I did not complete connections. The M38's were originally 24 volt system, Sarge was converted to
12v in the 60’s. I also have most manuals: military and civilian.
It's sure to turns heads when going down the road or
at local car shows. I'm hoping the next owner can take this war hero
to the next level.
