I brightened up the pictures a bit with Photoshop so we can see more details:


No 4WD or low range shift levers?



No M-H badging or any evidence of them.



What was mounted to the frame in the area circled?

Hmmm, great detective work. No transfer case lever, and new floor mat. And what looks like a welded in frame patch. Nothing I know of would have been welded there. Frame fractures are common on the bigger F-2/3s, but I've not heard of that on F-1s. Something also looks like it's been done to the frame right above the spoke wheel. There is no dashboard transfer case badge but it has the door lube badge. The replacement hood wouldn't matter. Stu

Dash board looks to have been painted so I could see why badge is missing. Stu brought up the three speed. I thought that peculiar as well since i remember seeing a sheet once that listed a charge if the vehicle came to M-H with anything but a four speed.

I guess the three speed could have been added as owner's choice during "restoration".
