Glenn spotted this one. It’s got an interesting windshield. I *think* I’ve seen one or two others, though last time I looked, I couldn’t find them. The remainder of the jeep looks civilian and, mostly 1946 2A rather than 1951ish.
“Up for aution is a 1951 willys jeep. This jeep has a very rare windshield designed for a cannon. Body is solid. Looks to be the original L4 flat head engine. Engine has not ran in a long time and seems to be seized up, but all drive train seems ok. I do have a new radiator , hoses , and plug wires for the engine.”
Windshield looks like the one the French Hotchkiss M-201 jeep (copy of the WW11 jeep) used for the Howitzer mounted type model.
Glove box ?
S. Giraud. Thanks, that’s a great reminder. I just found this brochure from the M201 site related to the windshield: http://www.m201.com/versions/106SRE.jpg The resolution isn’t good enough to confirm the windshield is original, but to me it looks the same.
