Contact at: weiss1039@comcast.net The hood number is estimated by forensic sanding prior to the last paint job. It could be a couple of digits off. My grandfather bought the jeep in 1945 from Camp Roberts. It's been in the family since. He thought it was an Army Air Corps Jeep as it didn't have a star painted on the hood and had a parachute symbol painted beneath the gas can area.
