That plate will be unimaginably difficult to find. You have a rare truck, and the USMC tends to rebuild trucks frequently, upgrading to the 465 engine and becoming an A2.

Good point. I could always do it that.

I thought to be an A2 it had to have the air locker in the front.
I don't have the air locker in mine but I do have the 465

No sir, A2's had the sprag transfer case up until '71 or so. So probably have a garden variety M36A2. What is your VIN to double check?

Data plate is very hard to make out until I can try and clean it off. But I have the numbers on the frame. 0127 10479

VINs starting with 01 is either a 1966 or early 67 make by Kaiser Jeep. So you for sure have an A2.
