Fit right in.

I'm sure I will have questions.

I had an M38A1 years ago. I think you will find it fun and fairly easy to work on. I was never able to stop transfer from leaking. Probably needed a rebuild.

Sure is a beauty. Looks like all the fun is gone though. You won't have the fond memories or cursing and busting your knuckles trying to fix it, no hours of confusion trying to figure something out . Driven it much yet ?

Good looking Jeep!! I had a Willys MB and ran around the farm on the old oil field roads. I rolled back against a bank and killed the motor which would restart and only run 30 seconds and die! (mud played the potato on the tail pipe trick) Mark

Good looking a1. The other MVs look good also.

Got the backseat brackets and bows installed.
Added the canvas and have a couple of questions I can't seem to find answers for.

1 Does the side curtains fasten inside the top like the only way I could get it?
Or is it sandwiched between the outer top and inner flap?

2 Also have a 42" strap I'm not sure what it's for?
