"An unidentified officer of The Lorne Scots (Peel, Dufferin and Halton Regiment) stencilling the regiment's identification number on a jeep, England, ca. 30 May-1 June 1943" ( source ).

Nice picture showing W-LU 440-M-PERS-1 details:
- rear lifting ring behind bumperette
- three stud spare tire carrier
- "WILLYS" script
- no Jerrycan carrier
- no safety rings for pintle hook
- no trailer socket for electrical connection
- note white painted rear differential cover, so British lighting is most likely fitted

Does this make it a CDLV 242 contract jeep?

Thanks,
Hanno
