Well done.. what perciverance, you deserve a good result. Guess that's what determination gets you.

Sounds like your other half is about ready to take it for a ride...?

Just checked our m54a2 and where we had mounted the russian praga body on new welded mounts, 12 years later and some tough driving, No problems.

Plated properly with decent welds that will not be an issue.

Welcome and post pictures of things "military" over there

If the breather piping is still present on the M38A1 You should be able to straight swap them over. Google the distributor types, seems like the parts are sold to fit iether mode. we can't post that popular site, but research shows them sold there as fitting the range of jeeps you have.

Meticulous build and fit, looks very proffesional. I will use that lock idea as well me thinks.

Disconnect the batteries. Repair or replace burnt out wires. Check all fuses and links. Hopefull you can do this. and nothing more major has occured beyond your scope. Be carefull re-connecting the battery leads, see if they connect again with no arcing. Hope all goes well with no major...

The solution sometimes comes with investigation perseverence and self dianosis. You seem to have achieved that. So well done.

A picture would be usefull (as) it sounds like the windshield would not fold down past it? Here is an interesting mirror position.

Some of that stuff sells for really low money over here. There are engineers tractors like new with about 6 miles on them! going for about £10,000. Have rubber track pads and full equiptment. But what the heck would a collector get out of it with such little use for display only.

Nice looking truck. Hope it drives as well as it looks. Someone pointed out it does not build up air. Take a tool box and compressor. keep us posted on your mission.

Glad you had a good day. The horns are bad news for anyone imediately in front.

When you say it's dead, is that no start on cranking or no battery power to crank and start. Sounds like an electrical problem. So you need an auto electrician. (they shoudn't scratch their heads). You could pull a battery lead and if the engine dies the solonoid on the pump has failed deu to no...

Tow bar failed, broke safety chains. I did for a moment wonder who the crazy guy was trying to overtake on a country bend!. OOPS! that's ours!. No problem (fortunately) strong jury rig, and off we went again. Arrived home safe.

welcome to the site hobby and freindships. You have a very nice looking truck there.

That will be a nice looking unit when you get the smaller wheels and tires on. Good luck in the search.

I would go to the faulty lights first and check as said above for bulbs bieng of, then is power getting to the units themselves. Check earthing (grounds). Then check out faults with the switching. Good luck with it, electrics can be a hassle, let us know your progress and the solution when found.

Seems about right. I get Emails of sails and some of those trucks go for 6K-8K, and by the time a dealer trucks them out and services and repairs where wanted plus profit, soon mounts up. If I lived stateside G.L. is where I would bid I reckon. As some real bargains do come up. There was very...
