Nice CJ,
should the tail gate be blank due to Kaiser buying Willys and dropping the name Willys in 1963. 62 had the name on the tailgate but I thought 1963 was blank
Tailgates were official descripted of Willys in May of 1963. So, it’s possible this was manufactured before that month.
Alternatively, it could be that this was a 1962 CJ-5 that was sold in 1963. We’d need the serial number to know for sure.
Most likely, this is a reproduction tailgate, because it lacks notches along the top of the tailgate.
