That the Navy was unhappy with the amount of time the Defense Department (read "Army") was taking to get the M43 Ambulance variant of the M37 into production, so they just ordered a bunch or ambulance bodies built on standard PW frames.
I don't think they are THAT rare, seen a few on here over the years, and I'm sure there were a good few of these in the trucks VPW brought back from Asia ??
I think there are a few year / model detail variant though, and this one looks quite salvageable.
