Rick,
This is the real thing, built May 1943. This one saw duty in the Pacific during WWII, was shipped back to Texas for refurbishing then sold with thousands of others to the Australian government in the late 40's. Most were butchered for the Australian army, and converted to right hand drive steering. Mine survived the butchery and is fully restored to it's original condition.
Yes it has the flat 4 cyl Willys engine and 3 speed transmission.
Don't have the machine gun but I do have the bracket for it. Also have the original spade and ax.
Can't compete with you, top speed is 50 mph but it goes great backwards.
Here's another shot of it at a historical show a couple of years ago.
