look nobody cares if an M35 truck was an original Reo or later AM General specially since you cannot tell any difference from outside and it was no role vehicle !

here a CHALLENGE for you , can you find ANY articles or external differences between the original ones (Studabaker, Reo, Kaiser-Jeep etc) and the later AM General ?

cos if NOT you have no point, it's impossible to tell them apart
even if by a miracle you can find any info you cannot be sure since this trucks go thru maintance cycles and old parts may have been upgraded


you're thinking to much of badges, emblems etc like civilian trucks, in the military nobody cares about such things, they build straight to the point most of the time using the same blueprints and parts suppliers


some busted ones
