   Very cool!A lot of early Jeeps, the one with the snow plow has nine slot grill.

   I should have said early civilian jeeps.And the snow plow jeep has Willys on windshield,tractor type tires and chains the way it looks.Early agri-jeep?

   Very interesting brochure, they seemed to use very early jeeps in pictures, are you sure it is a 1947 brochure? (maybe released in 47). A number of different jeeps with interesting details. The first jeep pic has damage to grill, maybe not all photos staged? That jeep has no tire on spare, black headlight bezels, painted headlight ring, but no full floater. The front marker lights don't seem to be the normal bullet type or seem to be not mounted flush? The jeep plowing snow is definitely a CJ-2. I will have to dig out my brochures and check them closer, thanks for posting it.

   Mark: I based the date on a pencil mark on the brochure. It was the most specific identifier I had.
