Here’s a nicely detailed look at the rebuilding of the Allstate Locking Hubs/aka Husky Hubs.

I was reading one of Ernie Pyle’s books and ran across his description of Baron Rudolph Von Ripper, a man who probably would have fit in with Taratino’s Inglorious Bastards. I did a little research on him. He was a well regarded artist whodeveloped a taste for warfare.

Read about Von Ripper here:https://www.historynet.com/von-ripper-painter-gun.htm(It’s worth a read … he had a fascinating life)

Here’s one of his works that include a jeep:

When Time Magazine named Hitler Man of the Year, the magazine used Von Ripper’s gruesome illustration; Von Ripper had some up-close experience with the SS and was as anti-Nazi as anyone.

UPDATE:Still Available. Now registered for the road. Seller has added some other items, but why the other seats were replaced isn’t clear.

(03/15/2019) This jeep was for sale last October. Not sure if it is the same seller or different.

Bernd was busy again using his CJ-5 to haul a repaired motor in Austria, then later carried garden material to the dump, while Danused his jeep to tow his boat to Puget Sound for a ride around the south Sound area.

That is Mount Rainier in the background:

Something unusual is afoot with this oddity. It might be a truck that’s been placed on a CJ chassis. Note how the doors have been cut.

“1957 Willys jeep truck, back cut short, complete. Drive. Train still intack. It has the Willys Hurricane. 6 cylinder engine, should run with some work, if interested.”

Is the color Indian Ceramic or Salmon or something else?

“Nice 49 jeepster 4cyl 3 on the tree. Can hop in it and drive it anywhere. I have the side curtains for it. Very solid car.”

Has a new tub among other parts.

“Not original but a nice Jeep. Lots of new parts, new tub newly rebuilt transmission and transfer case. new Saturn Overdrive. Very solid and runs and drives very nice.”

There seems to bevalue here.

https://up.craigslist.org/cto/d/pelkie-2-38-a1-jeeps-projects-lots-of/6934391151.html

“2 M38 A1 Jeeps with a lot of parts included. 1 jeep is complete has’nt run in years, that is a 1960 M38 A1. The other is a ‘ 57 (,I think) it is a shell. It is rough but very restorable . Both jeeps need work , there is alot of parts included engines 1 transmission front and rear axles body parts hoods, everything goes. Jeeps and parts have been in a barn with a cement floor for Many years. Price for all $3000.00”

UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $5999.

The could be worth a look.

“1953 M38a1 Jeep (military) mostly original to my knowledge except tires and batteries and exhaust. Need a little work on the charging system. Runs ok. Has a front pto winch, comes with canvas top, doors and weather front. Brakes are soft. Solid jeep little to no rust.
Open to offers”

The missing drain holes on this 3A body suggests this has had some body work.

“Restored Military Jeep

Unclearhow many run.

“Selling these Willys there is two wagons and two trucks asking 6000 obo for all four call for more details”

UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $3500.

Seems to be a CJ-3A.

“Here we have three Willy’s two 46,s and one 48 one 46 is complete needs starter and brakes fixed the other two are in pieces enough parts to make two Jeeps I will take 4500 for everything or may trade with some cash”

Maybe someone can find some value here? Thanks to Seth for spotting it. The pics of the jeep are below, but can also be found at the bottom of a long list of pics using the link below.

UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $16,000.

(11/18/2018) This appears to have an M-38 body. The rebuilder did a nice job of creating an installation panel for the the large speedometer.

“1951 CJ3 Jeep Restored ~This is a factory 225 Dauntless V6 engine with lots of power this is a three speed transmission, we never tried the 4 wheel drive, the jeep starts right up and drives like would expect a vintage jeep, it does have power steering added but not power brakes. There’s a lot of new parts including brakes, all lights, alternator radiator shocks belts gas tank etc, all the canvas is brand new and easily removable in a few minutes, includes 2 new canvas doors, newer seats with seat belts battery garage kept and was only in the rain by mistake for 5 minutes since restored,

we purchased this as a prop for our business and now we are moving on, this jeep is a real eye catcher at any event, certainly not a smooth ride like a new jeep but a lot of fun to drive.The gauges are not entirely hooked up, all the lights work including the 4 ways, the horn works as well. There is no rust, it has tow loops on front bumper and easy to remove tail gate… if wanted there is also mounts and latch to ad rear seat.”

Steve spotted this Perkin’s diesel CJ-5 with a PTO, ventilating windshield, and a Meyer half cab.

Gary shared this Instagram post by catskill_mtn_customs that demonstrates how to alter a Mitsubishi fender into a CJ-3B style fender.

UPDATE: I thought this might be aJohn Deere themed jeep, but eWillys’ chief detective in Mesa identified it as a Pratt Greenbacks’ themed jeep.

I think this was a CJ-6 that’s been modified.
