This is how the M38A1 looks now...I have re-upholstered and keep up an ample supply of
spare parts. Note too that the tires are now Military ND's. These Jeeps; actually a Willy's;
have a 17 gallon gas tank and get 15 mpg...not too bad for the super low gear ratio. Top
cruising speed is about 50 mph. M38A1's have a foot pedal starter above the gas pedal. The
seats are original and non-adjusting. Note too the lack of a roll bar. The dash lights are red,
and the BO (blackout) lights cast a weak light for combat area use. The headlights even have
a 'lock' on them to prevent accidental use and brake light illumination if desired. It drives
like a truck, has a non-syncro-3 speed transmission. The hubs are engaged constantly and
the position of the transfer stick determines 2 wheel or four wheel drive. The '3rd'  stick
determines high-low gear ratio. I can attest this thing can go where most modern 4WD's can't.
I must admit though, it does not like thick mud due to the thin tires.

These pages tell a little more about me, my
horses, my self, and on going projects. I have
also listed the Conditions of the different types
of Probations.....
