SAS Kubel-Jeep

Hello all. I recently ordered a used copy of the book "The Observer's Fighting Vehicle's Director of World War II -- Revised Edition" by Bart H. Vanderveen. It's a wonderful reference book and includes many soft-skinned vehicles I have not seen before or read about. Among the many hundred vehicles shown in said book, I have come across a few oddities that I want to post here. The first of these is what appears to be a Kubel-Jeep, i.e. a Jeep chassis with an I bet modified Kubelwagen body, apparently used by the SAS in North Africa. The vehicle in question is found on page 21. The following image is what information the book has on this mysterious vehicle.

What do you all think?
