    I've got access to a 65 Tuxedo park...all in pieces, as well as a tub. So, what's the diff between the Tuxedo CJ 5 & the CJ 6....longer body on the 6? If so, is that the only difference.

    I've read the referneces herein on this, but didn't see this.

    Thanks,

    Peter

    The 6 is longer. Aside from that, I believe the Tuxedo Park package was the same between the two. The 6 may have had some different springs or something but, I can't confirm this.

    The Tux CJ-6s qualify as rare. Likely countable on both hands.

    Yes, they are a CJ-6 with a Tuxedo Park package. AFAIK they are no different from other Tuxes aside from the 101" wheelbase.

    So is it a really CJ6A? In 1965 there were only 115 built. It is not very likely you will see one running around your community that is recognizable as a Tux. Pic's are required if this is a CJ6A. :D

    Peter,

    If this Park is being advertised online, then I've seen the pictures of it.


    Looks very nice, a real shame the owner is parting out that 5, not sure why either.
