Cheers guys, its from the philipines and supposedly WW2,and those are all the numbers that are on the registration documents from there. its doesnt have the aluminium plate on the chassis,i'm just going on what the paperwork states. it seems to be a mix of Willys and ford parts(has a Ford radiator,some parts for the top bow are F stamped etc)
