Can anyone help me nail down my jeep type ? I picked up a 100 dollar project from a friend but i am not sure it is an M38A1. the title has 1954 with a vin starting with M, if that is significant. it has the correct battery box in the cowl, but it is running 12 volt and has standard plug wires not mil spec. however it has the correct springs shackle location on the front springs, the correct gauge package for m38a1 (not the round CJ cluster) but no switch box on dash for black out lights. The big one is that it also lacks the jump lead port on passenger side of body tub, was a civil services/ fire version made without this port. I would like to restore it for parade use , but I also would like to be true to what it was .

Thanks for your help
