Hi Chris yes it had the mount braket and rust to show it was there from waaaay back at least at the time they Crown Assets let her go...that was 1976. So it was not removed and there were holes that were there that yes I welded up but too short to be a radio set...?
Not sure what they were for but only on one side.
I usually use a pan head bolt and nut where i want to keep but plug the holes like with the antenna holes that were on the front right fender meaning it should have had a radio set...and yes the fender is from this jeep...rust patterns match.
Unless we were there and used it or have an eye whittness account we may never know what happened to any of the equipment...all speculation. I do know that the Military particulary the Army did not believe in banging out a large dent before applying filler!
