F-134 Hurricane  4 Cylinder Engine
In 1950, the first post-war jeep, the M38 (or MC), was launched, based
on the 1949 CJ-3A. In 1952 it was quickly followed by the M38A1 (or
MD), featuring an all new "round-fendered" body in order to clear the
also new, taller, Willys Hurricane engine. This jeep would later be
developed into the CJ-5 launched in 1955. Similarly, its ambulance
version, the M170 (or MDA), featuring a 20-inch wheelbase stretch, was
later turned into the civilian CJ-6.
