Looking for designs for a 6-wide Jeep

[jonwil]

I am looking for anyone out there who has produced a 6-wide Jeep in LEGO. Not the WW2-era military version and not the modern Chrysler-made versions but the civilian versions that would have been made and sold around the world in the middle part of the 20th century. The kind without doors, windows or roof. I am intending to build one of these in LEGO for a special MOC project (details of which will be revealed at a later date) and need inspiration or designs to study to get the iconic Jeep look.

There are lots of Jeeps, by searching for something like *lego 6 wide jeep* in the Google image search you'll surely find something. Set 76003 has a nice jeep which can easily be modified though I haven't built it yet. It has that nice cockpit part that allows to seat 2 minifigs without problems.

Brick Brigade has a pretty nifty classic Willys you could take some inspiration from: http://stores.brickbrigade.com/custom-lego-military-vehicle-model-set-us-1-4-ton-willys-jeep/

Here's another (old Cuusoo submission) I quite like:

While these are technically WW2 models, if you built them in another color they'd be accurate for a commercial 1980's build. I had a Jeep Wrangler for a while and it was pretty much identical to its classic military history. All you'd need to do is change some minor things like fender style.

I like the front end of the jeep in the fire plane set 4209:
