This May 1951 AD differs slightly from the April 1951 ad on the CJ-3A page here. So, I’d guess there were at least two version of this ad. The differences are primarily related to minor changes in font sizes and styles, along with a shadow and different tilt of the “Milestones” box on the upper left.
Very interesting to see that Jeep with the headlight and turn signal blanked out. Are they covers or where the light removed all together?
I believe, from what I’ve seen in other photos, is that round steel plates were screwed on like the plate that covers the trailer plug hole on early CJ 2As .
John,
That’s the way the Jeep Tractor was designed. It was very minimal. Here’s another brochure for both jeeps: http://www.ewillys.com/2020/05/12/1951-farm-jeep-jeep-tractor-brochure/
