I've heard some Jeeps were set for the civilian market but were made "war ready" in case they were needed.
This could explain the Jeep I bought, that the second owner said came from a military auction in Georgia. It was sold as a CJ-5 (1955) and I bought it on that word. Now I find it's an m38A-1 probably a 1952 with a low serial number.
It has the jump start cup but was inverted with a piece of metal factory welded over the hole filled with Bondo with the same at the battery compartment(24volt). But the glove box is on the drive
