Jeep CJ-6

The CJ-6 was a CJ-5 with 20 more inches of wheelbase, advertised as a half-ton that could carry seven people or 1,500 lb. It shared the CJ-5's engines and changes, from the Hurricane four and Perkins diesel to the Dauntless V6 and, from 1972, AMC sixes and the 304 V8 on a longer 103.5-inch wheelbase. Few were sold in the US; most went abroad, especially to Sweden and South America. The longer CJ-7 replaced it in the US for 1976, but export builds continued until 1981.
