It makes me feel happy to know that people take care of Korean War era Jeeps. I’m glad people can still witness what my grandfather most likely saw all those years ago!
This is one of if not the best looking M38 I've ever seen. I've restored a few M38A1's many years ago. I really enjoyed seeing this. Tip my lid to the restorer. Great job.
I love the way this video is shot. It allows me to take in the detail of this beautiful Jeep without having to pause and rewind. Thanks for sharing it.
Only vehicles who took part and participated at Normandy invasion had the star with the dotted cyrcle ..... Great restoration thought and it does look good with the star.....
You're absolutely right on the invasion stars, but it really looked good, so that is why I put it on the jeep. Thanks everyone for your comments. Regards Dennis
What a beautiful Jeep! The owner I'm sure if very proud, and just awesome to see all his work and attention to detain in this video. Thanks for sharing. :)
Aaaahhhhh...the good old days! Tight looking, well dressed Jeep! 'Preciate' the view n trip down a dusty road! Keep your head down ,n butt tucked in, n don't skyline yourself...n when u r dun...I'll see ya back in the world!
Great job on the M38. As far as a spec M38 there is a lot of things not original. But maybe he wasn't worried about it not being 100% original. I have a m38 that also has a few things not original also. Good job.
01:31 - "it was also considered a direct copy of the Willys CJ3-A..." Not a "direct copy", though essentially similar, there were several differences. The MC, for instance, had 24 volt waterproof ignition while the CJ3-A was six volt with standard distributor. Random examples of MC were pulled from production, started, and run at idle for twenty minutes while a fire hose was run on the engine full blast. MC had stronger frames, shackle reverse, blackout lighting, various military fittings... . Also, Willys rhymes with 'Phyllis', not with 'lillies'.
@domiNATEshots12 You are absolutely correct on the hood numbers. The jeep is dedicated to my father how's picture is seen on the interior windshield behind the gun rack. The hood number is his WWII serial number and his outfit, the 995 Field Artillery is on the rear bumpers. Thanks for noticing. Best Regards Dennis V.
I put many a mile driving Army jeeps in all types of terrain for many years. They were reliable and trustworthy and it was a danged shame to see them leave active service. I think the modernization was carried too far as the jeeps would fill many roles as well today as they did when l served.
06:30 - That engine is set up as a civilian model (CJ3A). The MC (M38) had 24 volt waterproof ignition. The distributor and ignition parts look entirely different. His trailer is a Willys MB-T or a Bantam T-3.
Thanks for posting this,it was really interesting,reminds me of the show "Rat Patrol".What are the brass plates for on the dash,instructions on how to's?

I have a M38 still in it's work clothes. Let me tell you in the dictionary under the word Tough there is a picture of a Willys military jeep. No more definition needed.
@@kevinbeck9459 No, Ford was subcontractor to Willys for the 'WW2 standard Jeep'. In competition with American Bantam and Ford, Willys won the contract in 1941 with their superior 134 inch 'Go Devil' engine. Nearly 360,000 Willys MB (Military, second contract) vehicles were built, Ford built nearly 280,000 of the GPW (Government, 80" wheelbase, Willys pattern). Both were known to Ordnance as 'Truck, 1/4 Ton, 4X4, G503'. This 'Jeep' is an M38, all of which were produced by Willys Overland.

That is amazing, and the attention to detail is mindblowing. So much work gone into this jeep.
Thanks for posting this.
Another beautiful piece of history..
Dear Gurilla: Thank you for doing such a great job on researching the M-38 and narrating the video.
Regards Dennis

Fantastic engineering: simple, well thought-out, and RUGGED!
Cerobong knalpotnya ada ga
Not many jeeps looked as immaculate as that when they were in service.
You're absolutely right on the invasion stars, but it really looked good, so that is why I put it on the jeep. Thanks everyone for your comments.

It's your 'Jeep'!

I'm 45 seconds in and that thing is BEAUTIFUL...
These are better than a side by side, more rugged too. And more fun to drive!

Dennis do you still have this M38?
@@paulsworld07 Yes I do.
Those are "data plates," with instructions for fording, shift diagrams, factory info, etc.
Pretty sweet idea for period looking floor mats. regular old anti fatigue mats
great jeep, good condition, historic.............the pride of the owner

Great Jeep and Great video on it. Thank you.

NICE.
i noticed the two lights on the m38 panel gauges shouldnt be there it is not for m38 but over all it does look awsome, fantastic work
Civilian Jeep Panel lights. I left them on since it was a 12 volt system on the jeep.
QUE ENVIDIA POR DIOS. FELICITACIONES AL DUEÑO
Da gusto ver ese reacondicionamiento de coche y como otros individuos que enseguida lo modifican de todo ........y por todo
JEEP asp militery M 38 good look looking modifi restoration classic original beautiful piece of history. I like it like it I Love to willy

The trailer is an original M-100 made by the Strick Corp in 1952. There is a Japan Depot rebuild tag on it also.
@@dv3468 Cool.
I should have noticed the heavy lunette.
That's a very nice M38 and trailer.
Beautiful
تحفة رائعة ، استمر في العرض .
looks soo mint almost like from showroom! i would love to have one of this :)
grande carro...........valeu cara................!
Also not to judge this awesome jeep, but if the jeep was used in the army, its numbers on the hood would have started with 20
That is one sweet ride.
Did you guys restore the jeep for Dennis?
Very Great Sir
Awesome...
Good I like Willy jeep how many price Indian money thanks so much information about
Fabulous
hey can you tell me if..
can you tell me if you know where to get these military jeeps?
If you know where to buy them please tell me or give me a link
Find them around and restore them.
Which engine ???
That's a 134 'L - Head' (overhead valve).
The Star on the hood is incorrect, this star was used in the landing of Normandy, when this jeep did not exist
'Artistic license'.
How hard would it be to convert a old willys to an automatic?
Why would you do that??
+SaintJames40 it would be a sin
Great
The distributor is not correct
Hey guys! Can someone please explain me what the rhinoceros sticker mean? What is the history behind that symbol?
THE RHINO WITH THE ARTILLERY SHELL FOR A HORN IS THE LOGO FOR THE 995TH, FIELD ARTILLERY BATTALION DURING WWII.
Great jeep. But a lot of different parts used on it.
Thanks for posting this,it was really interesting,reminds me of the show "Rat Patrol".What are the brass plates for on the dash,instructions on how to's?
Specifications, ordnance inventory, transmission and transfer case instructions.
I
ufffff toda una reliquiaaaaaaa
I like that...how much that you selling completly?
Nice one
Judging by the video this particular model does not have the full floating rear axle.
MB / GPW of WW2 had those.
Could some one explain about two sticks for low and high mode?
Left stick forward engages four wheel drive. Back disengage. Right stick forward. Four wheel drive low. Back four wheel drive high.

greatfull
I love jeep
Anyone 6 foot plus there not suited, I couldn't see through the windscreen or fit in behind the steering wheel.
distributor is twelve volt and not waterproof I can't blame you for that
LINDO!!!

Did the M38 have a model with an engine in hanger orange . . . no!
How grace full like Monika.

I have m38 jeep
+Shoaib M-Essa (Shobi) I too... a M38A1 Tires 7.50 wheeler 16.
As silly as it may sound, it really reminds me of my 2014 Jeep Compass. They hardly changed a thing in all those years, really its just cosmetics.

No hip pads?
Not on the M38. WWII jeeps only.
Dear Saint Lucifer! :D
Most of the stuff under the hood isn't original
The original engine was replaced sometime in its lifetime with an early 2A engine with 12 volt ignition. I kept it that way .
