    what would be very helpful is if you posted some pics. the frame number tells you the frame is a 56. a rear gas tank could be installed in almost any Jeep, it was not factory in the 56 CJ.

    well, although the winshield frame looks like it may be a 56, the rest looks mighty close to 1970 to me.

    Nice mail jeep, yours?

    all I can tell you is the serial says it was built late in 55, that's probably why it was titled as a 56. HTH

    about the only thing my numbers show is that it is either a 65 or a 66. unfortunately, it appears that the build date sticker idea hit the dash sometime in 1969, the reasonably complete statistical data kept by willys ended in 61, so in between those dates you're sorta outa luck. as we collect more CJ6 and CJ6A info, the picture may become somewhat clearer.
