I bought this Jeep three years ago and gave it a good once over inside and out. Clutch bearing blew up a few weeks ago but fitted a new one in 7 hours flat! Went with the Vietnam theme for the Jeep, have been known to dress up also for fun! The only history that I have is that it came into England in the early 1990’s from Europe. Possibly ex Dutch army but not fully sure. 2.2 litre F Head engine. Had lots of fun in it and won best 4×4 two years running in a local show. Not the best one around in the UK but its a great survivor of the 60’s!
Hi Andrew…..
May I ask how you determined the lettering size and placement for USMC and the I D number on the hood?
Is the ID number the vehicle serial number?
Trying to determine the correct size, font and placement for the hood lettering on my 1953 M38A1
Thank you
Hello Andrew,
If your Jeep is from the Dutch army, he has in his chassis number : MD.
