Subject: [Leica] What the heck is this Leica camera?!?

Can someone tell me what model Leica is shown at the top of the "Leica 
Answers" page? The URL is:

http://teachnet.edb.utexas.edu/~leica/

I can't figure it out. The top cover looks like it's an M3 except that it has 
a slanted, M-4 style rewind and a hot shoe. It's not an M4 or later because 
of the old style preview lever. It also doesn't have a self-timer. Is this 
somebody's idea of a joke? A computer manipulation? A one-off conglomeration 
of parts? What's the deal?

Or am I just overlooking the obvious? Is there a model I've forgotten?
