Hi Rob
As always, appreciate the insight.
What I think is unusual is the fact that the CFR is clearly stencilled on the dash in white numbers as per usual and then there is another set of stencilled numbers above the grab bar, 89, in the same milspec font. Doesn't make sense to me other than my assumption that perhaps it was the call sign?
I have not seen this on any other m series jeeps. Do not think it is a bubba add on as this jeep is a typical example of what happens to milsurp vehicles. Buy it, drive into the ground and abandon.
