This was in that same foreign brochure. Not sure if this is a known picture or not. Hard to tell what the X number is, looks like X01, but that can't be right.

I may have to concede, but I will say, as before, when I magnify the image, it clearly looks more like a "0" than it does a "6".........

And the image on pg. 137 is pulling a completely different piece of equipment.....

BUT !!!!  The kicker for me, is upon magnification, the jeep above does NOT have "JEEP" stamped on the side of the hood, and it may very well be a pixel clarity issue, but the image above appears to have 2 dark spots that would indicate the hood "has, had, or will hold" the AgriJeep casting......

For me, regarding Fred's image on pg 137 and the image above, the only reference to likeness that I see is the omission of the fuel opening.....

Maybe I need to look a little better with my good eye :)

What would really help me, is to be able to view the actual image from the article Bill found, to have a clearer image of the front bumper markings.....

I could very well be getting a lot of distortion via pixels on the computer, but like I said, upon enlarging, the hood side is very clear to be minus the JEEP stamping...

That jeep is X61.  It is owned by Todd Paisley and he even brought it to the spring reunion in Hudson:


CJ2A #29110 "General Willys"
MB #204827 "BAM BAM"
