For Sale: 1952 Jeep Willys in Thousand Oaks, California

This nicely preserved Willy's Jeep recently arrived to our lot and is ready for a new owner to enjoy! The engine is strong, all gears shift smoothly, and this M38 is an everyday driver! A full frame-off restoration was completed at a local shop in 29 Palms California. Recent work completed includes 2 new batteries, spark plugs, oil line, all fluids flushed and topped off, fuel lines cleaned and a rebuilt carburetor and carburetor kit. In 1950, Willys introduced the M-38 (identified as a "MC" by Willys), a post-WWII Jeep based on the CJ-3A and fitted will military-specific features, including a one-piece foldable windshield, bottom-mounted wipers, a pintle hook for towing, lifting shackles, and a fuel filler on the driver's side. The M38 suspension and frame were stronger than that of its civilian sibling (the CJ-3A) and had a full-floating rear axle. Other distinctive features of the M38 include protruding headlights (with guard wires in front), an air vent in the base of the windshield, blackout lights and notches for various tools. The M38 did not have an outside step (included on the CJ-3A), in order to improve ground clearance. The instrument panel of the M38 was an exercise in simplicity, just as its predecessors had been. The instruments were clustered in the center with external lighting, with the data plates to their right, and a glove box at the extreme right. To the left were the choke and throttle, with the light switch just left of the steering column, and at the far left the parking brake handle was mounted in the dashboard. The M38 continued in production until 1952, when the M38-A1 became the "standard" model of military service, until it went out of production in 1957.
