1950s South African Angus Fire Jeep Brochure

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

This rare brochure for an Angus “Invincible” Fire Engines was produced for South Africa. I looked for an example of an Angus Willys Fire engine jeep, but could not locate any examples. I had hoped this brochure had more images, but there’s only the one image on the cover.south-africa-angus-willys-fire-jeep-brochure1-lores

Here’s another brochure out of South Africa. I’m not sure what made the DJ-3A “More Dependable” than other Willys 2WD trucks, but it’s on the brochure, so it must be true?!?
