    WOW!! This will take a while to devour. Very interesting stuff, and a brand new topic to play with. I’ve started a post on The CJ3B Page, Dispatcher Section. This could very well be my Miss Willy, a very early DJ3A that spent its whole life roaming Central California prior being rudely yanked to Central Maine. I can’t see any wipers in the pix and Miss Willy never had any. Maybe even the driver’s side wiper was an option in dry California.
