(12/09/2022) Appears worth a look. Has some rust. There serial number postfix of 18728 puts this as a 1960, rather than the 1962 year that is listed.

“Picked up this 1962 willys CJ6 Jeep over the Summer. For a number of reasons, this is a project I am unable to pursue. Odometer shows 8k, probably rolled over once. Has some rust and usuual jeep rot, but in pretty good shape considering. Jeep came from an airplane mechanic and appears to have a good base for a restoration. I was excited to see an original hard top, which I believe are pretty hard to come by. I’ve left the jeep in essentially the same condition I got it, which includes most of the old dudes tools and nik knacks. I think $4000 is a fair price, but feel free to shoot me an offer”
UPDATE: Still Available.
(11/07/2022) This has some mods, including what looks to be a rear tank.

(11/16/2022) It’s hard to see the floor condition.

UPDATE II: Another carrier to add to the list thanks to Jim. This was a Husky-built tire and jerry can carrier.
=============
UPDATED October 31, 2019: More Tire and Gas Can carriers have been added to this post.
1. Con-Ferr offered various options in it’s 1970 catalog. A few of the mounts were made and sold by Con-Ferr. The pages also include a Bestop Tire Mount and another example of a Kayline tire mount:
2. This page from the 1970s Brian Chucha Catalog provides additional pics of the Kayline and the Con-Ferr carrier options:
3. Best Top Tire carrier from the late 1970s catalog:
These two negatives from 1945 might interest GPW collectors.
Bill shared this FC. Looks in good shape.

“… Described as having undergone a cab- and bed-off restoration, with recent paint that’s said to be in very good shape, the Jeep has also reportedly received a new bed floor and hardware, and scored a win in its only car-show appearance to date…”
This truck is currently at $5800. Thanks to Bill for sharing.

“A 1957 Willys Jeep Flatbed with a flathead Super Hurricane six-cylinder is what’s offered here, for sale at no reserve. The New Hampshire-based vintage 4×4 was reportedly painted in 2020 and has a “rust-free” body, while the L-head Super Hurricane engine is said to be original, but in need of a tune-up. There are 65,754 miles on the odometer, but the seller notes it was non-functional for a while. The truck’s true mileage is unknown. “It’s time to pass this truck on to another old Jeep lover,” says the seller.”
UPDATE: Roger Jordan posted this rare photo of a DJ-6A concept vehicle on Facebook. It reminds me of the Dispatcher-100 and Sportif models, so I’ll add it to this page
===========================
Originally posted April 8, 2019:
As most folks know, Brooks Stevens was instrumental in numerous production and concept car designs. One of the lesser known projects was, apparently, an offshoot of the DJ-3A 2WD line. There are four documented designs, two of which became concept vehicles.
Dispatcher 100: Derek Redmond published a slightly different version of this concept at the CJ-3B page. It’s titled the Dispatcher 100 (has an insignia with the name on the passenger door) and it may represent a slight update or next evolution of the “Dispatcher” above. The cover on the passenger side cowl suggests this might have been made from the later model DJ-3A body (which used the hole for a heater vent).
This year’s Willys Jeep Rally will be held June 2-3 2023 at its usual location in Houston Woods, College Corner, Ohio. Thanks to Russ for letting me know! You can learn more here: http://www.mw-willysjeep.com
I suspect this will sell pretty quickly.

“Runs and drives. Was restored at some point by previous owner. Fresh fluids, fresh carb rebuild. Tires appear to be original to the truck, weather checked but hold air. Bill of sale only.”
The red one has no engine.

“1946 & 1947 cj2a’s. Multicolored one is a 47’ titled, running L134, with working O/D. Carb needs a rebuild, brakes need attention, but stops. Older 7.00×15’s NOS, just mounted. The red one is a 46, no title, no motor, but I have enough parts to put it together including 2 blocks, one just needs to be assembled. Message me if you have any questions”
This is listed as a 1942; it has some military parts; and, it has no glove box, so it may have been a slat grille at some point.

“1943 Willys mb Jeep. Engine turns over but not running. No paperwork. Body is very rough.”
The CJ-5 may have some early Free-Lock hubs.

“One is a 1946 the other one is a 1955 they both need a hell of a lot of work $650 for both bill of sale only we do not have a title for these don’t ask $650 takes both”
UPDATE: **Sold** was $1900.
This appears to be a truck with the rear sides of a wagon modified into a rear bed. It’s something a little different.
“1959 Willys, Jeep, 2WD, Custom made fleet side bed, No front fenders, No seat, Custom bumpers, Center line wheels, new tires but older. V8 318, AT, dodge rearend, motor and trans are good but not running now. Good start on Rat Rod project, Hot Rod, pickup, truck. $1900.00 OBO,”
This seller may also have the red one listed from Spanish Fork. The seller thinks this is a 2A, but I’d say it is more likely a 3A.

“Old Jeep Willys flat fender project. I believe she’s a 2-A but someone here probably knows more. Body panels are in good shape. She definitely needs someone to love her. A fantastic project car, or would be a sweet bar or decoration in a man cave or bar. I. Included a picture of the bar I built in my shop. I’ve got 2 of these and would work a deal on both of them. This one is still on the trailer and ready to be delivered in the next few days.”
Seller claims this is a “Ford”. It looks like the rear lids are flat like an MB. Not sure how much value is here.

(11/07/2022) This has an unusual mod at the driver’s entrance. The cowl lid suggests this is an M-38.

(11/09/2022) I have to say I was more curious about the Sand Jalopy Hot Rod than the jeep. The jeep seems to have a DJ-3A body. Neither seems to have much value.

“It’s been stored for 25 years and was running.”
UPDATE: As Barney notes in the comments, it appears to be a windshield adapted from a Mighty Mite. You can see an example here: http://www.ewillys.com/wp-content/uploads2/2020/11/year-m422a1-imperial-ca1.jpg
Buz just acquired this MB that has an unusual windshield setup. I have seen some bubba jobs similar to this windshield, but someone did this much better than most. It does not appear to be an M-38A1 windshield (too narrow), but it doesn’t appear to be a CJ-3A/DJ-3A windshield (curved top holder). Anyone recognize it?
He described the windshield this way:
I bought this 1943 Willys MB with this unusual style M38A1 windshield assembly. It is narrower than the M38A1 windshield and this one has not been cut and welded. Also a very precise adaptation to the cowl to mount the windshield. No doubt it probably harms the value of the 1943 model, but it has to have been some sort of factory modification, it’s not a home brew bubba job. Have you ever seen anything similar to this? I have the history of this jeep back to 1947. The first civilian registration was issued in 1947 to E. W. Worrell who paid $800 for it in Hillsville, VA.
Here are some pics.
