The first instance I saw it, I immediately recognized the Jeep underworks!

Solved TGF-167: Wyllis-Opel Olympia by Wally Cohn

Can you identify this car?  The point is in the glove-box (I actually don't know if there is one).

My first thought was that it's a Mercedes Benz G5 six wheel, but it doesn't have suicide doors, the steering wheel and dashboard aren't Mercedes Benz and it isn't bullet proof.
It looks one-off or home made, is it a WWII 4x4 Dodge truck with a car body, possibly a 1938 Dodge/Chrysler body?

Very short wheelbase, is it a Jeep with a GM car body?
