Yay, time for an update. Ya, i know i'm not exactly speedy with this. As of today i finally got a rolling chassis. Took alot of time to get this far. First thing i did since last post....BUILD SAWHORSES, and dang are they nice. Forgot how nice it is to have a good pare, they are also my new work...

Sounds like something with your fuel pump. Sounds like the fuel drained back down the line and after the initial crank, the bowl source was used up. Also just got to ask, did you have your choke pulled out when cranking ? If your fuel pump has a handle on it, then use that to prime the top bowl...

Just a side note, check your charging gauge when you get both batts in and running. You have old mech vr, it maybe bad or need adjustment,

The queen has and awfully big trailer, won't even chance backing it off a trailer aye ? rofl

Yes, that is an m38a1. You CAN NOT mix an m38 and m38a1 up. The m38 has flat fenders, and angles sharply inward body right before engine bay, basically it looks like ww2 jeep. Just to help with vin, the only place left for you would be on the tire well, right behinds the passanger seat, only...

Pictures. Bats go in series. jeep not car :). If it has 2 bats, then its 24v. From firewall it goes starter, then voltage control box, then generator.

Ok, time for an update. Never enough time or money :), that why it's been a while. Well i finally got the frame straightened, and i did all the welding rep it needed, including replacing the whole gun support. Then i sand blasted it ( learned the cost saving of doing it your self is not worth...

Beautiful scenery. Must of been a great trail ride. Lol saw the road down below and thought "yep, gonna need the Jerry can."

LoL Gralmk, love you 2nd picture. It's refreshingly hilarious to be reminded how small these jeeps are. Yours is all the way in the parking spot, almost looks like you could fit another behind it. The SUV in the background is sticking out of the parking spot. :)

He HE He, always expect an empty wallet. Takes a lot of frownie facies untill it will be able to make you smile.

I finaly got gas..... Now i can stop using flux to weld my back floor together. Also just about have all rust gone frome body now, about 3 hours of work left. (need new back floor, but too broke :()

OOHHH, that sounds yummie!!.... too bad i'm broke :( Does off road floater have website ?

LoL i bet. Great little jeep, buy impossible to get parts for.

10.Restoring my M39A1 ..... :o That must be a rare one. LoL fifty, aint that the truth. Bout to send my frame to shop for bending and am excited.

I re-bent my twisted frame :) now the frame shop can fix the rear.

Realy do want to go to tower park, but low probability. Its a long drive (6 hours 1 way) and i'm broke. Dreading the $ just to buy the rebuild kit engine needs + frame. You going to be there i take it mike ? bringing any goodies ? Hoping to get away with just a block kit and hot bath. Think the...

Taking a break on body work. Took everything off the frame and engine on a stand. Going to trash the frame, looking for another. My 52, found out last guy cut all the shock mounts off and end tips of the back bumper cross-member. I could salvage and mounts off the 64, but that's a bit of work...

Looking for someone going my way. Got a possible m38a1 frame in GA, and im in SoCal. Time frame is pretty open.
