Sam shared this photo which he spotted on a Facebook Porsche page. It looks like this early Jeepster is pulling about 12(?) carts full of kids.

Meyer Snow Plow & ElectroLift Brochure
The Meyer Snow Plow brochure includes a large section about the ElectroLift. Labeled form no. 3-163, the brochure is a standard paper side with a half-paper-sized section that folds out horizontally to reveal more details about the Electrolift. There is not date on this brochure, but I’d guess early 1960s.
Note that the left side of the back of this brochure is the same as the image above. It’s the right side that folds out.
2 Meyer Snow Plow Brochures
These two two-page brochures from Meyer once again highlight the company’s snow plows.
This first brochure showcases the Meyer Angle Dozer and is dated July of 1962 and is form no. 3-114 (though on the backside it shows 3-114 R2, suggesting the backside may have been a 1st or 2nd revision):
This second one is an undated form no. 3-283, but given it includes a Jeepster Commando, it is likely from the late 1960s.:
March 1941 Photos of the Ford GP Tests
UPDATE: The Herald-News of Passaic, NJ, published an image of a Ford GP going through its paces. Given the chained tires and other similarities, it appears this photo was likely taken at the same time as one published at the bottom of this post.
========================
Originally posted May 30, 2020, as part of this post: Here’s an article and a photo showing a couple Ford GPs being run hard, originally printed in the March 09, 1941, issue of the Battle Creek Enquirer:
Hickey Style Dually Adapters on eBay
UPDATE: Daniel commented below, “these are aluminum, they are new, they come painted OD green. the bolts are sealed in plastic bags. he claims they are in canada, but the items ship from a woman in India. I am thinking Mahindra. his ebay listing is misleading at best.”
So, these may be acceptable parts, but the seller isn’t clear that these originate in India.
============
These adapters look to be the type made by Vic Hickey. If so, the HICKEY name ought to be visible on them.

View all the information on eBay
“Up for auction is this 1961 Willys CJ3B Jeep.
This Jeep came from an elderly gentleman up in Montana and it was a hunting Jeep that was used by him on his ranch in Montana. This jeep was used for hunting Deer and coyotes on a regular basis.
Jeep Was sitting when we found it and it was stored inside of a tractor shed. We loaded this jeep up in the middle of a blizzard after driving 2 hours down a gravel road and then made the long trek home with her. We flushed out the fuel system, added new fuel lines, Coolant, and a fresh battery. We also did some adjustments to the timing and the points as well as the electrical under the dash to get it working. The jeep starts really great and the throttle and choke work as intended.

2 Meyer Snow Plow Optional Equipment Brochures
These two brochures offer optional equipment for Meyer snow plows. I’ve been unable to make sense of the Meyer brochure numbers.
Form No. 3-208 is a four page brochure that highlights optional equipment for Meyer snow plows.
This center section utilizes two pages:
=====================
Form No. 3-217 is a one page brochure that highlights marker kits installed atop Meyer Snow plows to make them easier to see.
