Odd hood canvas adapted to the hood and grill.
Civvy spoked wheels

Looks like a suspension lift and aftermarket springs as well.
But the ONLY THING NOT ORIGINAL ON THIS JEEP IS THE TIRES AND WINDSHIELD.

No one from Texas has any desire to go into Mexico. Not even the Mexicans who have escaped from there want to go back any more. It's only foreigners from the far north who still want to experience that.
Besides, you don't need wire cutters to get across the border in Texas. The snorkel would be more useful there.
And by the way, Not all Texans are bubbas, even about jeeps.
