Mike, I know exactly how you feel about the possible loss of the 38-7. I had a similar experience in Viet Nam. I was at an Air Force base and had become friends with some Army motor pool guys who had three battle damaged jeeps that were being scrapped out. The said I could have one and they would help me try to get it running. The night before I was going to go see them, the Viet Cong put a 122 mm rocket into those jeeps.I always said that God just didn't want me to have that jeep. Hope you have better luck with the 38-7.
