Did the Willy Jeep book sell and if so what was the amount?
Thanks

Hi Kay,
Unfortunately, I don’t have any information on a sale price (if it sold). I tried to find a version of the book on one of the used book sources, but had no luck.
If I can be of any additional help, feel free to email me at d@ewillys.com

e-bay description does not match the pictures of book, current price $107.50, but I don’t know if it’s for the “Willy Jeep” book or the original parts manual?
The pics and info about the book were from a previous ebay ad. I thought they were more explanatory than the current ebay ad info.
btw. I’m surprised at the price! Thanks for that update.
