Working on stenciling on my jeep hood. Should look nice when finished!

I've had this as well and was worried that there was water in the oil. But it's never used any antifreeze!

I'm the MVPA vice president of Indiana and I looked through our members list and no one in that area has a 53 M38A1. But I'm not going to give up on this. I would really like to see it.

Update. I found out that this jeep was sold to a fellow in Angola, Indiana. He had the jeep until 3 years ago. Says he sold it to someone in the Wabash or Huntington, IN area. So the search continues.

So this is a shot in the dark. I'm looking for a 53 M38A1 that my grandfather owned. It was the last one he restored before he passed away in 95. It was a USMC marked jeep with hood numbers only. They were done in black vinyl. The hood number was 350000950. This is the only thing I know about...

Mine is the same way. I replaced it about a year ago. I'll go out and take a pic of it tomorrow morning and post it.

Awesome! I don't think I've ever seen a Navy M38A1.

You've got a good start!! Keep up the good work!

Starting to look like a show around here! Ohio Motorpool has shown up with the Nike Missiles!

The WWII tank recovery truck the Dragon Wagon cancelled.

Just got word that we will have a Dragon Wagon (WWII tank recovery truck), a cold war missile set up. If you've been to the Findlay show you've seen this set up. It consists of 4 5-ton tractors with missile trailers. The AMA club out of Muncie, Indiana and will have a flight simulator along with...

Leaving tomorrow morning!!

There is a Holiday Inn express. The Portland Inn and the Hoosier Inn. All are found on Google. Holiday Inn Express looks like your best bet.

I'm not actually from Portland. I know there is a hotel on state road 26 on the edge of Portland. Which isn't far from the fairgrounds.

Sent you a PM

Its not quite as big, but we are trying to get it to be like Findlay. Lots of the Ohio Motorpool will be there and some of the same vendors will be there that go to Findlay as well.

Getting down to the wire! I'm packing up and leaving on Thursday about noon to get my display set up!

I'm getting excited about it! Rumor has it that one of the guys from the Ohio Motorpool is bringing his Honest John and Nike Missile replica's to the show!

I'm not sure. But if he's in Dayton and has that many vehicles I'm sure he's apart of Ohio Motorpool.

I'm really looking forward to it. I'm doing some maintenance to my M38A1 and getting it ready for the show. I feel pretty fortunate because I live about 40min west of Portland, IN.
