JPOR: Unknown Jeep Make



I just returned from a trip to Martha's Vineyard and snapped a couple of
interesting pictures of a Jeep that I was unfamiliar with.  (What would be a
trip without pictures of some Jeeps on the roll)  Check out the pictures at:

It had narrow leaf springs (like the 60's style) but had straps for shackles
rather than the military style "u" shackle.  The back seat was actually two
seats, with one over each wheel well.  Notice the front curved bumper.  It
appeared pretty stock except for the newer style top and the Warn locking
hubs.

Does anyone have any history on this model?  I would be interested to hear
about it.

By the way, I was amazed at how many CJs, YJs, and TJs are running around on
that island.  I couldn't turn around without seeing one.  Pretty amazing!!!!
