This is that rare M38-CJ-CJ2A-CJ3B Model … Mixed parts, mixed model numbers, and an unusual VIN Number make this a bit of a puzzle. The VIN is unusual because, according to all the records I have seen, the highest CJ-2A VIN is 224764. So, something isn’t right here.

Now that’s a cobbled together thing. But it does include a “wench.” I wonder what she looks like?
I dont ee anything to indicate any of this was ever actual military and his rear bumperettes are upside down,lol… I do love flat green paint though!
