Not mine, but doesn't look bad, no mention of cut or uncut.

Interesting spare tire carrier adapter. I know a couple MV guys in Raleigh that might be able to check it out.

Spare mount is a USMC mod. Forget the reason, something about clearing a specific antenna mount.
Some people are too busy knowing it all to ever learn anything

The first A2 I restored had that type of spare tire mount. I cut it off when I changed the truck over to an Army configuration.

Got the underside pictures. It's certainly a USMC vehicle. Frame is rotted out. I figure it would need a full underbody kit, floor work all the way around. Story is it came from Myrtle Beach PD. that got it from the government. It's all there and all USMC, so if someone wanted a project, and could do the welding, it would be worth doing. Not sure if the price is negotiable, but he already dropped it once. I still have four to finish, so I can't take on any more right now.

Myrtle beach means it was used as a beach vehicle. salt water for how many years, there will be nothing left to weld to.
