Now my questions:
My jeep has some strange parts. For example
1)   In the bottom right side of the windshield is printed =94Sekurit
  Belgium=93 Do you know something about it?.
2)   The glove box has a division in the right center. The one the left
  is bigger thant the right one.  I havent seen that on any other jeep
  like Ford GPW
3)   There is a big brass screw above the glove box. The head of the
  screw is in the panel and it finish at the firewall. Do you
  understand? What is it?
4)   Do you know how I can do to investigate where my jeep came from. I
  think that after the war some jeeps from Europe were sent to Latin
  America. Perhaps you know something.


Well this is my message up to know. I hope you can understand all I
wrote. Regards
