DJ-5 Dispatcher

[mylittlecj5]

Just thought I'd share this one that followed us home today...As far as we can tell its a '67 (or so) DJ-5 (dispatcher) 2WD open top delivery.



Does anyone have any other info on this one? I am familiar with the normal DJ stuff, just never seen an open top one. And this is the only Jeep I have ever run across with 4 lug wheels all the way around...

Found this little blurb on the CJ3b page...

1965-75 DJ-5

The two-wheel drive DJ-5 Dispatcher 100, almost identical to the CJ5 but using a Dana 27 rear axle, finally replaced the DJ-3A Dispatcher in 1965. The F-head engine was standard, with the V6 optional in some years. The Dispatcher 100 used a column-shift T-96 and later a floor shift. An I-beam front axle was replaced with a tubular unit in 1968, and the Dana 44 replaced the Dana 27 in the rear in 1969.
