Looks good at first but for the price, too much incorrect stuff for me.

Looks like a CJ3B done up as a USAF jeep. CJ Willys hood, the dash, etc. Also, the engine doesn't look correct.
But others can correct me if I'm wrong. Seems he's mislabeled his jeep.

I think it was once an M38, before Bubba inflicted his engineering prowess on it:

1) reinforcing in the front chassis rails
2) hinged grille
3) bolted windscreen vent
4) cowl battery box
5) M38 glove box
6) M-series light switch.....

No doubt others here can point out more M38-ish bits. But hey, they got the tail lights & bumperettes upside down!

There's a much nicer M170 on Ebay:

More expensive, though.........
