A cut down AM General DJ-5 Dispatcher, as indicated by the front. Very strange.

Nah, rather someone bought after it was out of service, cut it down and pimped it.

Not unusual to buy surplus postal Jeeps and cut them down like this. They were available very cheaply and even though 2wd they served well as "fun" vehicles. I believe the drive line was a posi-trac 3:73 Dana 44 (?) which made it peppy in many applications.

Anyone recognize the seats? Obviously they only had a driver's seat. Or maybe someone used the driver's seat from another Dispatcher as the passenger seat.

Weren't there also right hand drive models, for easier loading of mailboxes?
