It's a good thing they got it back together before some jarheads came along and tried to collect spare parts... :)

There’s some problems...

Water for the radiator?

gas tank?

differential oil

brakes

This is not a truly drivable jeep. Very very short distances only. And there’s been extensive mods to make everything come apart easy...mods that would not be safe as a real vehicle.

Good eye Mamelukesabre.

These guys were totally unorganized and made a hash out of the whole thing.

They should've been ticketed for various infractions.

Thank you very much for exposing this fraud.

Of course there’ve been mods — a few bolts replaced with clamps, etc.

However, what makes you so certain there was no water in the radiator, or oil in the differential? If the mods included a few well placed valves, the fluids would be sealed in, after the parts were separated.

The hoods in Newark can take it down in 2 minutes.
Parts are in Rico by the next day.

It looks somewhat like an M38A1 but not exactly. Is it a real Jeep?
