1953 Willys Model 38 Truck Description:

This 1953 M38A1 is in good condition considering its age, starts easily, and the engine runs well. If you are a collector, restorer, or just someone who loves fun vehicles, this is a rare gem and a great island toy and should not be missed!


This vehicle was purchased in 2005 fully restored. It includes all of the cool features of the M38A1 such as the 24 volt electrical system, the blackout lights, foot starter switch, 3 speed transmission with low/high transfer, rear mounted gas can, and more.


The vehicle has held up very nicely with respect to rust damage as you can see from the picture. Even the compartment below the passenger seat (a common place for rust damage to first become severe) is still in good condition. Note thatmuch of the brown (and some white) you can see on the body is due to an overzealous family member spraying primer onto it (not rust). It still starts up quickly, idles nicely, and we drive it around the neighborhood with the kids from time to time for a treat. See condition section for more details.


If you are into vintage military jeeps, cool Americana, or looking for a restoration project with a solid foundation, this is a great vehicle.


IMPORTANT NOTE REGARDING SHIPPING------------------------------------------------------------- This vehicle is located on Nantucket Island. If you are shipping it off-island, you will be responsible for shipping costs. We can, at best, drive it on to the ferry for you (assuming some time in late September or early October), but you will be responsible for driving it off the ferry and flat-bedding it to your location.
