Sounds like an M-38A1C which had a 106mm recoilless rifle mounted on
it. The tailgate facilitated ammo storage and retrieval. Spare was
sidemounted to allow opening and closing of the tailgate.

It is also possible that it was done by the Army or Gurad later. I once
had a 1953 M38A1 that the NG had added a tailgate to. Same quick
release style hinges and NO Jeep or Willys stamped in tailgate. I assume
it came off an M38 which had a tailgate.

Hope this helps.
