It's not a terribly bad setup for a car. Basically a 30's Ford-styled pressed body on a solid frame, Ford-similar front and rear axles (with torque tubes, I think), and a nose restyled to slightly resemble an International D or Willys Overland. Simple, simple, simple - might not be hard to build a replica.
