Original Literature
« on: March 26, 2012, 03:11:59 PM »
I was fortunate enough today to be reunited with the original literature as provided when my Willys was new. I know we've all probably seen a copy of the owner's manual but I hadn't seen the other stuff before. I wonder if I could still cash in my 2000 mile complimentary service coupon......

That is cool! I've never seen a 3A owners manual. I've always assumed it was the same as a 2A. You should print up some copies of all that stuff (even the envelope). I'd definitely be a buyer for two!

I've had a 3A manual in PDF format for awhile. Found it somewhere online. Having the original one for my Jeep is even better. I have scanned all the other stuff and will gladly e-mail PDF's to anyone who wants one. Just PM me your e-mail address.

I just got my copy in from that link Larry posted up. As far as I can tell, it is a very high quality reproduction.

Ryan - great find! Check out the footnote on the ID card. The "40M 10-50" means they printed 40,000 of them in October 1950. ...R

Figured I'd bump this up since it's been a couple years and there's lots of new members. I still have it all in PDF if anyone wants a copies of anything.
