    In the replies on FB some have been asking for a crew cab version. That would be ideal.

    I almost bought one of these several years ago. A British Ferret Scout Car. Road legal with demilled grenade launchers and sans the .30 cal Browning. But the cockpit was waaaay too small for a guy my size. Like tank drivers you have to be on the smallish side. over 6' and 250lbs disqualifies you!

    The hood suggests a 60-70's vintage J series Jeep pickup truck or the military version called a M715 if my memory is accurate (probably not but Kaiser did make a version for military in 60's).
