M38A1 Renovation

[majoday]

I am back to work on my 1954 Marine Jeep. From 3 donor Jeeps the tub is patched and has its first coat of green paint. The frame was repainted, the front differential and knuckles rebuilt and the rear differential sealed. The transmission and transfer case were in good shape but received seals. I also completed the brake system. The motor is at Best Engines in Texarkana (Wake Village) Texas. It will be ready in about a week. Number 3 was sleeved and all were bored to .030 and the crank turned to .020. I have patched several rust places. It is not show worthy, but will be ok.
