    Frankly there's just not alot of info out there, from what I have seen. We know they existed, and kinda sorta what was on them, but that's about it.

    I've seen two of them. One at Jeep Acres in Indiana, and one in New Mexico. Both are long sold.

    I'd bet that there were production data kept on them; that's how they could justify the Mark IV, but it would have to have been some sort of "off book" data, perhaps by trim code.

    As far as I know they all were Indian Ceramic, including the steering wheel.

    I have a "parts Peculiar to the Tuxedo Park Mark III" manual (W1155) that I'll mail in to the cj5 page if someone wants to include it in the tech data, however it is only 4 or so pages long.

    There were no differences at all between the TP mark III and the 'normal' jeep in that period exept for chrome, so the steering box, shift lever, brakes, springs, were all the same as the CJ5.

    The trim code was L-29.

    It had the wheelhouse cushions.

    tuxedo park mark III cj6?

    Interesting - Jeep had a hard enough time selling any CJ6's in the US. If they thought they could sell a tuxedo park mark III, they probably would have made one.

    I have never heard of one, though.

    Did they make a cj6 renegade????

    They couldn't sell cj6A's, so they probably didn't make the renegade.

    Sparky sent me a PM on the parts manual, so I'm going to get a copy to him so he can post it.

    Manual mailed to Sparky this A.M.

    Was there a Mark III cj6?

    Apparently not, based on the parts list specifying CJ5 and not mentioning CJ6

    No CJ-6 Renegade. Even the CJ-6 option list was smaller than the CJ-5's.

    Did you check the Parts Peculiar List?

    What kind of info are you looking for in particular?
