Here's a look at a few pages from some hard-to-find Jeep literature, featuring specs and action photos of the Jeep Fire Engine (CJ-2A, 3A and 3B versions), the Jeep Crash Wagon (3A, 3B and CJ-5 versions), and the Commando Fire Truck.
The pages come from Willys promotional booklets dating from 1948 into the 1950's. Click on any page here to see a larger version (100-200K JPEG).
This Willys-Overland Export Corp. booklet scanned by Mark Ciaglia apparently pre-dates the domestic CJ-3B Jeep Fire Engine Brochure, and thus lacks much of the specialized information found there. But it has the usual bold design style of the Export Corp.
