I stand corrected! Well then the guys you can see in the background look like they are Klinger's brothers so this must be in Toledo :lol:

Great stuff! Late body but unreinforced M38 spare tire mount. I have a NOS rear seat set with the vinyl. Interesting material.

If you ever needed proof that not all paint finishes matched or that fasteners were unpainted this is it!

Just a guess this is not an automobile plant. Toledo Scale made the floor scale.

An encyclopedia of details!

In case some people arent on the G.

So after I posted the pictures I went digging some more. I found another copy of the pictures on this website http://www.warwheels.net/M38A1jeepINDEX.html. I tried to contact the content editor of the website with no answer yet. Maybe he will have a book or some other reference that will show more information about the photos.
