mike962 ◊ 2018-02-13 12:17	wouldn't it be Kaiser-Jeep ?

There's a small Jeep logo stamped under the grille, also. Edit : maybe not stamped. Perhaps a badge painted over. -- Last edit: 2018-02-14 02:51:48

If you look at the history on Wikipedia of American General, it formed from the Defense and Government Products Division of Kaiser Jeep. I would think the postal trucks would fall under that description with the Military vehicles. Another source I found, said that the FJ-6 was made from 1965-1974, replaced by the FJ-8/9 in 1975. http://www.jeepfan.com/readersjeeps/kaiser-jeep-fj-6-fleetvan-4x2/
