I just purchased this 1947 brochure from eBay. It’s got a few good photos I hadn’t seen.

Welcome to eWillys.com, a website for vintage jeep enthusiasts. I update this website nearly every day with jeep deals, jeep history, interesting reader projects, jeep related info, and more.
These quick searches can help you find things on eBay. People list in the wrong categories all the time, so don't be surprised to see brochures in the parts area for example.
The links to posts below show jeeps grouped by models, condition, and other ways. Some of these jeeps are for sale and others have been sold. If you are unsure whether a vehicle is still for sale or not, email me at d [at] ewillys.com for more info.
There are plenty of interesting, unusual, historic and surprising stories related to Jeeps and their owners. In addition, some of these features have nothing to do with jeeps. This link will display all featured stories starting from the latest.
Looking for parts and not sure where to go? There are a variety of large and small new and used parts sellers both online and offline.
Importantly, the allure of buying a project jeep can be romantic. The reality of restoring a jeep can be quite different, expensive and overwhelming without the right tools and resources. So, tread carefully when purchasing a "project". If you have any concerns about buying a vintage jeep, or run across a scam, feel free to contact me for help, comments or concerns .

Very cool!A lot of early Jeeps, the one with the snow plow has nine slot grill.
I should have said early civilian jeeps.And the snow plow jeep has Willys on windshield,tractor type tires and chains the way it looks.Early agri-jeep?
Very interesting brochure, they seemed to use very early jeeps in pictures, are you sure it is a 1947 brochure? (maybe released in 47). A number of different jeeps with interesting details. The first jeep pic has damage to grill, maybe not all photos staged? That jeep has no tire on spare, black headlight bezels, painted headlight ring, but no full floater. The front marker lights don’t seem to be the normal bullet type or seem to be not mounted flush? The jeep plowing snow is definitely a CJ-2. I will have to dig out my brochures and check them closer, thanks for posting it.
Thanks for sharing Dave, always great to read.
Mark: I based the date on a pencil mark on the brochure. It was the most specific identifier I had.
