This Jeep was bought by Hamid Omar in the 70's from Lyari, where it was hauled behind a donkey cart to Shafi's workshop. It has been rebuilt a number of times since then, and is tied with Taimur Mirza's CJ7 for most work done on a jeep in Pakistan. It has now been handed on to his son. A 1951-2 M38, it is likely the only flatfender in Pakistan with an EFI engine.
