What about the possibility of it going with the early Jeeps, MA's,GP's etc. that I have heard so many of, went to Russia.

This fact, that ZiS plant has made this Dodge conversion in 1943, does not mean, that this Dodge itself was produced in 1943 - vehicle could be produced earlier, of course. Supplies of WC to the USSR have begun in 1943, but there could to be vehicles from earlier batches.

Motto: Eduard, what information do you have on the Dodge based ZIS version of the Command Car? Do you have any more information than you have disclosed?

No more details known until today.
And please do not discuss about wheelbase - this is usual, ordinary WC51.
