Parts or project. Someone on FB believe it is a M422A1. I am not positive of the differences.

“Military M422 Mighty mite jeep. All aluminum construction with an air cooled v4 engine. These were jeeps were designed to be air lifted by the USMC. This particular jeep was at the Caribou Ranch Recording studio in Colorado. It was used as a vehicle to transport people and goods around the ranch. We purchased the jeep about 5 years ago and had hopes of restoring but currently don’t have time. Supposedly Caribou ranch bought the jeep from the government on and auction. This jeep will likely need a full restoration. Not much is known on the mechanical condition it does appear to be fairly complete. It is missing the front diff but we have the housing. No title.”

“Up for auction is a AMC M422 A1 Mighty Mite
The original data plate is missing but the frame number is 3232, the body number is 3521, the hood number is 310001 and there are faint unit markings on each side and on the tailgate that consist of the letter V with the numbers 600 above the V and HQ to the bottom right of the V.
The Aluminum body is in good shape without any major damage. There is some cracking around the master cylinder access hole, a shallow dent in the top of the hood and small dent in the passenger side front corner of the fender. Please refer to the pictures for overall condition.
The steel body to windshield cowl is very thin and will need to be replaced. It would make an excellent template to fabricate an new one. The steel windshield frame is in pretty rough shape. I have seen worse saved though.

“All original American Motor Corporation (AMC) Military Jeep, air-cooled engine, has fording, aluminum chassis, and is designed to be airdropped (parachute) behind enemy lines. It’s a 1968 Mighty Might Jeep; it’s all original/complete, everything is straight, no accidents. I have many extras, including aluminum chassis, motors, differentials, electrical parts/harnesses, axles, etc. I’m selling everything in a package deal, and I’m unwilling to split/sell it as individual pieces. Driven into an enclosed barn, CA’s high desert (dry climate/no rust) about ten years ago has been untouched. The Jeep was purchased, used, and owned by my dad, who passed away. I recently changed the battery, gassed it up, and started right up! I have the pink slip in hand and power of attorney.”

1962 M-422A Chine Valley, AZ $15,500

UPDATE: Price dropped to $15,500

Sri spotted this unusual M-422A with a hardtop.  I don’t remember seeing a hardtop on one of these. Was this something that was available for an M-422A through a third party the way the M-38 and M-38A1 hardtops were? This fit seems pretty good.
