[ARC5] Jeeps with Radio Equipment

[MARK DORNEY]

The ARC equipment was more than likely the very early 12 volt ARC radios, or were radios modified to run on 12 volts. The 24 volt equipped keeps did not come into existence until 1952 with the introduction of the M-38 Jeep, and the Jeep in the photo is the earlier WW2 type MB or GPW Jeep
