janhyrman ◊ 2008-01-16 11:57	Yep, amphibious Jeep.
antp ◊ 2008-01-16 17:50	strange that this one was still not renamed to Ford GPA since all that time, it seems that we missed/forgot it. -- Last edit: 2008-01-16 17:51:09
Jale ◊ 2011-02-25 23:07	Because it's listed here - /vehicle.php?id=56607 , and entry is for the tank.

If this is from US Army stock, it is either M4 or M4A3 (the hull does match; they used only these two models with welded hulls). Let's say: basic M4 (then, most were made by Alco). Edit: most were made by Chrysler. -- Last edit: 2013-01-10 21:45:46
