    1964 USMC M38A1

    Thanks for the reply. It makes sense that Kaiser would not want to introduce a rebuild on the assembly line and would be able to tool up for the USMC M38A1 assuming a surplus of the original parts that were different form the CJ5 and/or had suppliers with the capacity to produce. Some restorers...

    1964 USMC M38A1

    I have recently acquired a 1964 USMC M38A1. (I will upload some pics as soon as I become acquainted with the new site and system). It is mostly original retaining the 24volt system, engine, drivetrain (with the exception of an aftermarket overdrive). Painted desert tan camp, which I know is...

    R.I.P. - Joe Young

    This one goes way back and you had to be a long time member to know Joe. He bought and sold military vehicles, mainly M35a1 and a2s, and was an early member and contributor to this site. I bought a M35a2 from Joe in the early 2000s. Before the internet was so prolific, men like Joe were an...

    Back after being MIA (AWOL?)

    Hi Fellas!! Good to be back. Prolonged absence probably requires an explanation: Had a heart attack in '07 which caused me to be out of work for a while. Financial challenges followed. However, worse part was post-cardiac depression. It is a real condition but took a manly man (translation...

    Got a "feel" for your project, but it the pics were too small to get alot of detail. What is the schedule for shipping/arrival of your truck? I am in NE GA and I know some fellow GA SS and NC SS members would be interested in seeing such a machine.

    you obviously have fab and mechnical skills. I would agree with your choice. A refurb. HEMMT is expensive and not something you want to take backroading..
