Default Jeep crates in Oz

Here is a picture from Australia of a couple of Jeeps still sitting in the bottom of their crates surrounded by other Jeeps in various states of assembly. The caption calls them "Knock-down" versions, but they're really not in the strict sense of the word, nor is this a factory as they're being assembled in a field. I always thought that crated Jeeps were shipped with the windshied simply folded down but as you can see from the picture the windshield frames are placed at the front of the Jeep surrounding the bumper. Question: Was the glass shipped uninstalled in the crate or did the Australians supply the glass for the Jeep locally? Derek.
