The good news is that I’ve got some good stuff to share monday, but right now I’m busy completing my computer rebuild. I got my new terabyte hard drive on my laptop, which should give me plenty of hard drive space (1.5 Terabytes in total) for the next few years. However, during my move I ran into the normal tech problems (several old forgotten passwords and problems moving some applications to the new hard drive). Worse, something got into my email server this morning (maybe I opened a bad email?) and wiped out about 10 months of emails from my inbox. Not good. Fortunately, my ‘sent’ folder is still in tact, so I haven’t lost everything.

Sales Aides from the Product Merchandising Manual

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

A seller on eBay broke up a Product Merchandising Manual and sold it in pieces. I bought this section (Sales Aides), and several others. Unfortunately, I don’t have the resources to buy all of them (and some of them are overpriced in my opinion).

These three pages demonstrate items used by the sales team to sell Willys Vehicles. One of these aides I’ve never run across is the “Civil Defense Brochure” shown on Page 2 under Selective Marketing Booklets.

Market Research from the Product Merchandising Manual

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

This Market Research section of the Product Merchandising Manual is very interesting, particularly since it covers Washington State (where I live). Because some of the information is broken down by county, and because varies quite a bit, especially east and west of the Cascade Mountains, it’s likely possible to draw some national conclusions about vehicle ownership percentages, etc.

Mark asked about finding a SEEP in a museum. So, I this post reflects GPAs in museums and  around the world. I’m sure there are others. If you know of any more, please email me a link or add it to the comments.

In Bangkok, Thailand, this SEEP is housed with several other jeeps at the Chokchai Museum. This video shows a short walk around. That might be a M-606 next to it.

The Wheatcroft Collection, in Leicester, England, has a great collection of vehicles, including this GPA. Here are many more photos of the collection.

1949 CJ-2A Lexington, SC **SOLD*

• CATEGORIES: CJ-2A, DJ-3A This site contains affiliate links for which I may be compensated.

UPDATE: **SOLD** Was on eBay.

This appears to have a DJ-3A body on it.

“Guys, I have up for sale my Willys Jeep, which is my favorite vehicle of all time. Like the jeeps of the WWII era, this Jeep is the small 4X4 (w/lockout hubs), with the original drivetrain, including the 4cyl L134 flathead engine (runs like new), and 3sp transmission with low and high range. All of this works perfectly. I drive this Jeep on the highway, often 75 miles or more through the country to take care of property that belongs to my mother. The steering is good and tight as is all the suspension. It has one-month-old tires and a very good spare. All the gauges and lights work great. The brakes are all new, wheel cylinders and shoes so it stop very good. It has a good clutch and horn. It is now 12 volt, converted over when it was restored several years back, with a modern alternator. The Jeep has a new convertible top (and doors as shown) only a few months old. It has a great original steering wheel. It has a very good digital radio mounted under the dash and good speakers mounted under the front seats. It has electric wipers and a seat for the back that is very good like the front. New cargo mat in the rear and new mats in the front. The original heater works great, too with hi and low blower speeds. I guess you understand by now that I have this vehicle ready for warmer weather. And, now my whole life plan has changed and I’ll have to let it go. I will be moving to Brazil to volunteer at a Christian project to house street kids near Sau Paulo. Needing all the financial support I can get, I am pretty much selling everything I do not absolutely have to keep. That’s why I am listing the Willys. By the way, It will come with a nice high-dollar aluminum, quick attach tow bar that makes it a dream to tow. Well, thanks for looking. I will be happy to provide additional information and I hope the right person gets the Jeep to enjoy for years to come. God bless.”

1947 CJ-2A Jonesville, MS $4000

• CATEGORIES: CJ-2A This site contains affiliate links for which I may be compensated.

It’s missing steps at the very least.

“This is a 1947 Willys Jeep CJ2A. The Jeep runs and drives great. I did a frame up restoration completed about 5 years ago. The jeep is 90% original, the only changes were a 12 volt alternator, 2 1/2″ superlift left springs, 1 1/4″ lift shackles, a welded rear end out of a 1945 MB and a one piece windshield. I still have the original shackles and the original rear end. It has the original flathead four cylinder rebuilt, original T90 three speed transmission and transfer case. New break master cylinder last year. I have the original tailgate but is has not yet been restored(it’s it decent shape). These jeeps fully restored go for over $10,000. Someone with some mechanical know how and body work skills could have this back to that with not much money and a little TLC. The jeep currently has a broken rear axle but the original axle will go with the jeep. The original axle has not been restored. I was going to make this into an off roader but decided it was too rare to chop up. The tires and wheels shown are not going with the jeep. I’m asking $4,000.00 O.B.O. Text or call 517 three 98 240 six”

If you are looking for a solid cage, this price is cheaper than making one.

“This was taken out of a 1947 Jeep Willy that was a rock crawler project. That project never happened, so I’m selling the custom roll cage that was made for it. I believe it will fit many other Jeeps and years and can be easily modified for a Samurai or something similar. It is made from 2″ tubular metal pipe and is structurally in great shape. Could use a good cleaning and paint though. Here are some measurements that may help you determine if it is what you want.

Front to Back of cage measured from the base – 71″
