It appears the August 1946 issue of Fortune Magazine has an interesting Willys Overland article.
“This complete Fortune magazine is in really nice original condition. The cover has no edge tears or creases, but there is a scuff on the right and bottom edges. The lower left edge shows minor scuffs. The illustration is vivid against a clean background.
The spine has minor scuffs at the top and bottom. The magazine is still securely bound. As I thumb thru this magazine, the inside pages appear clean with no tears, creases or dog eared corners. The back cover has no edge tears or creases. The illustration is vivid against a nice and clean background.”

The black CJ-2A appears to be a repainted ’45 (tool indents and full float rear axle) with a later grill ( non-bullet style parking lamps).
When you go to the eBay listing and magnify the page, there’s lots of mid 30’s Willys stuff including Ward Canaday’s Empire Company. Would sure like to see a reprint of this article.
Glenn,
I managed to get a hold of a copy of this issue for a little less money than above. It looks like a real good article to me as well. I should receive it sometime next week.
