![]() Eventually do a full restoration back to 1953 Military configuration. Get it running and put the suspension back to stock height. My first plan is to remove the wheels and tires which I got a set of M38A1 standard wheels for relacement. He also noted it had a knock when they started it and found that a rod bearing was the problem which he replace. The previous owner advised he had it running but only for a short time and noted possible sticking valves. Here are some photos of my jeep which is still on the trailer. Although I am sure that information is well known. What is your DOD as that should give some idea on the daily or monthly production numbers. Looks like mine is a little younger than yours NDT. Right now it is covered in paint so I want to be careful removing the paint to see if the vin/serial number matches the one on the dash plate which so far denotes this vehicle with a DOD of 8/53 and a serial number of 56388. I just found the vin plate behind the drivers side. Thanks for the information from both of you. Currently working on a 44 CCKW353 and now this 1953 M38A1. I am no longer working out of state so am starting to get back into the world of MV's. Unfortunately I had sold off most of my toys but did manage to keep a couple of M880's. ![]() Hi Maverick1701 / NDT, yes back in 09/10 I started working out of state and between my job and family I had no time for any of my hobbies.
