The features of the WWII jeep are the full floater rear axle, grab handles at the rear and side, combat rims, no pioneer tool slots on the pass side (m38 style). A clearer picture should show a glove box where the CJ2a would have none. WWII jeep Willys or Ford. The yellow jeep is an M38. /vehicle_18909-Ford-F-Series.html -- Last edit: 2006-10-23 04:30:19

4x4peru ◊ 2012-07-02 22:23	@14stulz: The windshield style in the above picture could mislead one into thinking the Jeep was a civilian CJ3A. However ever other aspect of a WWII jeep is present and accurate. The presence of a full "glove box" in the above photo defines it as an MB/GPW and rules out all flat hood civilian models. Due to Jeep popularity and interchangeability of parts over a wide span of years, it is often difficult to identify the models. This one is a WWII jeep.
