All of the changes you listed sound like civilian modifications. Sounds like you have a lot of work to un-do.

Thanks Rob and Ed. I will post a picture of the data plates later when I get better pictures.
Those mods I listed are the ones I was curious about. It has also been converted to a 12v system, so there is a number of items that were changed there as well.

As I said I will slowly be changing it back.

Default Korean War Vintage M38A1

Thank you for the data plate images, I cannot stress enough the rarity of the vehicle and its ties to the Korean War. There are very few preserved military vehicles that have such a known history.

Hi Ed, you mentioned the fact of there being very few preserved military vehicles with a known history. Just for my curiosity, where did the information come from for these Korean War vehicles?

Brian Ashbury provided information on the Jeep CFR numbers and the Service Publication book Canadian Vehicles in Korea - 2015 ISBN 978-1-927822-03-6 contains information on the M-Series vehicles.
