(02/15/2018) This has an APU hood, so it may have been an APU.

That hood looks ridiculous! Funny how they range from a few inches to a foot tall.

I am confused by the wide variety of hoods that were produced. How hard could the specs be to produce a consistent hood?

Maybe it was like ricer wings. The guys who got away building the biggest hood had the most street cred.

My guess is that some of these APU style hoods were home made.

I purchased this Jeep not knowing anything about the APU variations. I am not absolutely certain, but it does have a hole cut in the floor behind the TC, no toolbox under the passenger seat, modified firewall.
The dash has been cutout for a speaker where the 2 additional gauges would have been and there is no badging that supports the APU rework.

Hi Travis,
Thanks for the update. I've updated the post. The lack of a tool box and the patch in the floor suggest to me that this was an APU. If you have other questions about it, contact me at d@ewillys.com and I can connect you with Nick (who probably knows more than I do about APUs at this point).
