If that’s a ‘47 it’s correct. They had 2 variants. One was stamped Jeep, one was stamped Willys.

Still things to learn after being around Jeeps all my life and driving a 3A since ~1965 but that looks like the late CJ tailgate to me. Thanks for a bit of history I didn’t know.?

I’m a CJ freak. If you wanna steal my wallet, point out a CJ and ask a question. ?

What is with the shifters? Low High and two shifters for each? Or I should say one shifter for each range?

They have a 3speed, the OD Shifter, High/Lo Range and then 4wd In/Out.

Twin sticks had the taller and nearest stick for 2 or 4 wd, the short one was high or low range.

OK- looks like I need another lesson. On the 3A and my 5 the short further stick is range, taller one 2-4 wd. OD?- 3A doesn’t have ( have a Studebaker but the short driveshaft was problematic and removed) installed Warn OD on the 5

I literally worked right next door to this place when they were located in Bristol, PA.
Guess where I spent most of my lunch breaks.
They always had project builds going on at the time.
