Progress again . . . after I moved again.




Guess I'm due for my usual two year entry, and now that I've finally got a real shop to work in, maybe I'll start making more entries.  Anyways, to make a long story short, I've finally got both jeeps on site at my new home in Bella Vista, AR.  I'm getting very close finishing the 1947 CJ2A, so most of the posts for a while will be about that.  I want to finish it before I launch back into the M38A1.

Here's new pics, of the new shop & the tear down for painting.  My next move will be to get everything cleaned & prepped for painting.

Disassembly of the grill & front cap so I can paint the components.

Clean (if a bit dusty) engine compartment.


A bit of polish . . . 


More when I have the time!  Hope everyone has a Merry Christmas!!

I’m restoring a ‘64 USMC M38 A1 radio Jeep and I’m in the very early stages of a ‘46 CJ2a restore that is still at the POs house. Got a complete motor from Elmo, Nevada. Just need to put it all back together. I’m on Facebook as Robert Gallagher Manzo if you want to get in touch.
