   Year is tough to figure on this one. The body appears to be a reproduction due to the large tranny cover found on cj5, cj6, m38 and m38a-1. Also, there are no upright bow holders on rear corners and wheel wells. The speedo also appears to have through bolts in dash instead of studs on back. The dash knobs are all out of place. Going off the grill it is a 59 and newer but there isn’t a lot of originality left. Wrong seats and a mix of wheels too. No fresh air vent in side for heater either. This would work great for a modified type of buyer. If it were correct I’d be trying to make a deal on it

   No willys stamping on hood or tailgate but does have it on the grill. That puts it late ’62 but I can’t see if it has a cane or t handle ebrake. In and out lever on t case is a short one but may have been changed. I would like to see the top that is mentioned. Lots of jeep for the money…

   Oh hey toddy, does this mean you’re back. Older repro bodies didn’t have stamping either. Also, you have the choice of stamping or no stamping now.

   What engine is in this? I don’t recognize it.

   It’s an f head. It just has a different air breather
