Dallas found this serial number on his body. Based on this thread, we believe it indicates an aftermarket body. Has anyone else run across similar numbers on their CJ-5 bodies?
He wrote, “I’ve got a 1959 CJ5. It has the typical serial number data plate on the driver side firewall in the engine bay, but in addition, it’s also got a serial number stamped directly into the firewall on the passenger side in the engine bay. Neither the location nor the number format itself are ones I’ve seen before on other CJ5s. Have you ever seen a number there? I’m wondering if it might mean I have an aftermarket tub.”
