I went and pulled some parts for my M1009 and my '69 Camaro SS yesterday and found some military Jeeps and parts. He had one complete, but rough Willys, another frame with a very good tub, but I don't think it was Willys. He had also had another Willys tub that was pretty good, but my phone died...
