An old photo turned up with some family stuff featuring a Jeep, but can anyone confirm whether its a Willys or Ford?

thanks, R

After further review I now believe its a Ford!
Holes in the front bumper aligning with the frame rails is the giveaway.
Sorry I rushed to the first conclusion as they are very similar.

Thanks stuchamp, out of interest, what are the identifying features of the Willys?

Unless the Ford has been fitted with a Willys bumper.....................?
