1944 ‘Jeep’ Planning Brochure

• CATEGORIES: Advertising & Brochures, Features This site contains affiliate links for which I may be compensated.

I finally snagged one of these ‘Jeep’ Planning brochures. Based on some of the images (like the WILLYS and JEEP within a link), I’d say this was produced in the Fall of 1944. As best as I can tell, it might be the earliest brochure for what would be the CJ-2A, though you’ll note that only CJ-2s are pictured (unless I missed an X-cj). The brochure breaks down the four principal uses for the “peace time jeep”.

VacuCast Plastic’s Bantam Jeep Prototype 1 Model

This 1/76th scale plastic jeep represent one of the few commercial models designed based on the original Bantam BRC.  Eventually, I’ll remove it from it’s packaging to better take pics of the parts and the directions.

“I hate to do it, but it’s time. A collectors dream! A 1948 Willy’s CJ2A Fully Restored. The wife says it’s time to make room in the garage for a new vehicle we purchased. Have title in hand and the Jeep has been registered every year since 2003. The Willy’s has been garage kept. It was a frame off restoration starting back in 2003. All metal floor boards and body panels are completely free of any rust. The Engine was rebuilt by a professional Willy’s mechanic in 2006.

Most all gauges have been replaced or restored. Brakes, tires, and interior all in great shape. No tears in the seats. Interior fully spray lined. For a 72 year old vehicle this thing is in Amazing condition! I’m very meticulous with my stuff to say the least. 4WD works Great! This Willy’s was originally discovered in a barn in Wyoming. Odometer says 5,391 but only 3000 miles on rebuilt engine. Runs great-starts up with one click- a Real Head Turner for sure! No low ball offers”

“Hazzard Fabworx of Spokane has reworked the suspension, power steering, changed out all the fluids, battery, serviced the diffs/transmission/transfer case/overdrive, swapped in disc brakes all around (‘94 Geo Tracker) and installed lap seat belts. It has an “odd fire” V6 motor, Dana 30 front/Dana 44 rear both with 4.27 gears, T90 3-speed transmission, Dana 18 transfer case and a Warn overdrive.

I will say the original overdrive was a Warn but the owner before me had it rebuilt by Herm The Overdrive Guy in Washington, so it’s physically a Husky case now. It also has a Warn 4500 lb winch mounted on the front. The odometer reads 30k and change. The thing still runs and drives great. It doesn’t burn oil and still has the original VIN plate. The story I got when I bought it was that it was a forestry service jeep in Oregon, hence the decals.”
