HISTORY:
Willys Motors introduced the two-wheel drive Fleetvan was designed for light commercial applications, such as multi-stop delivery of mail and ice cream trucks. Practice has been the watchword for the FJ platform. The Fleetvan was built on a DJ-3A Dispatcher strengthened and maintained the same rough "Jeep" wheelbase of 81 inches and F-134 F-head Hurricane engine platform. The FJ-Series has been effective, robust and maneuverable.
This step van has doors that were easy to grasp each side sliding. The maximum use of glass windshield allowed vision "in all respects" to the driver through the cab over engine design. The first version was a U.S. right-hand-drive model Post Office that allowed the driver to operate the vehicle standing for easy operation.
The slightly FJ-3A featured a fake along with a total length of 154 inches (135 inches vs. for the FJ-3). In 1965, a new version FJ-6 was built on the platform CJ-6. In 1975, postal service vans FJ-series 3/4-ton and 8-9-FJ Series built by AM General FJ-6 replaced.
