Yes, spellcheck is both friend and foe π I’ve deleted the other comments. Thanks for identifying the FD!
A lot of interest in this M38A1, but the current bid of $2550. is pretty high for this project. Hard to tell if mileage is correct, speedometers sometimes changed when jeeps are refurbished. I think it is unlikely that govt. would have sent a new jeep out for surplus.
