I’m 71 I hope I live to see Lt Dan finished

Safety Police want to know where the jack stands are! 😲

Put the springs on first and stretch the brakes on, done a few hundred much easier. Axels stands Never trust a jack! I'm currently doing up a 47 ford mercury.

DP & MBTS, nice job on bringing this relic back to life👍👍 As a teen @12/13 I learned to drive in a 49 Willys racking hay and pulling hay wagons. Thanks for the memories.

It would be neat to paint it someday to match Lt. Dan. Another great video. Thank you for sharing

Your Jeep is a Military M38A1 that was produced from 1952 to 1971, with a few changes it became the CJ-5 (introduced in 1955). There were 2 serial number plates on the Jeep tub when new (dash plate and patent plate located on the wheel housing behind the passenger seat)...these two plates would have the same serial number. The engine has a serial number (different than the body tub) and if it still has the original engine the prefix letters will be "MD", if it has a replacement engine it will be "RMD". The engine serial number is stamped just above the water pump on the block.

I had to love the: they just don't make gauges like this anymore... okay and here is the direct replacement!

Love the old Jeeps. Great to see it back on the road!

I kept screaming, “ Power wash that pig!” I can’t stand working on years of old crud. Love the 4 banger with patina though. Please don’t restore it. Just use it like it is.

Analysis of the last scene, if it didn't come from the factory with a passenger side mirror, Kleeman may or may not have driven it. If it did come from the factory with a passenger side mirror, Kleeman definitely drove it because it's gone. Cool little Jeep. Y'all be safe.

Great work men! But that lug nut cover on the steering wheel is screaming - penetrating chest wound during an emergency stop!

Gotta love the pure honesty of our children.

Its an M38A1, great job bring it back to life

The good thing is there is no fancy electronics or computers! 🙂

Thanks for sharing your thoughts and videos. Always nice to see you and MBTS having fun working together. Wishing you and your family the best.

Good job working on Jenny, not so sure your safety officer would pass the lifting set up! Maybe the Jeep is different but I thought there were 2 different brake shoes the one one the front side was the shorter lining shoe and the back side was longer lining. Great to see history being appreciated!

Love the 1954 WILLYS!!!!!!!!! I am working on a 1954 5 window Chevy Pu. with a ls2 motor.

A little trick for doing drum brakes do one at a time to compare them if not you can mess up just a little tip lol

👍🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🗽🙏🏻 Enjoyed! Gunner will be behind the wheel of the Jeep before you know it Dad👍 I was picked up by the Iowa highway patrol at the tender age of nine years old, dad had me driving the pickup on the highway behind him and the combine. That was 70 years ago👍

I have a 52 wyllis M38A1 money pit, oops I meant jeep. Need a good solution for seats as the ones in it are cobbled up and will only fit a really small person! Good luck with yours. Kaiser Wyllis has every imaginable part for it and probably your jeep too.
