    Old Henry was dead by then, so the hatred he had for Willys didn’t pass on obviously. Lots of the early civilian CJ2As had leftover GPW Ford parts on them. the wheel on the back looks like the wheels they used to put on cars in the gasoline test runs and reliability runs in the 1950s. Not sure exactly what Ford was planning on making here or what they were going to use it for. Maybe the rear bicycle wheel measured the speeds at which they could determine how much voltage was being produced by the dyno??
