1950 M-38 Astoria, OR $8000 ??Scam??

UPDATE: This jeep was auctioned at some point on Mecum

Looks like a great price, maybe too good of a price. Something doesn't seem right about this ad. Who advertises a mint M-38 by describing it with a "front tow package"? And, I'm not seeing an obvious tow package. This might be a scam ....

The tow package is the wad of rope on the front bumper.......Maybe......
