    I picked up this brochure on eBay recently and thought I'd share these scans. Before seeing it, I had no idea some of this stuff even existed!:

    Thi is very interesting, I see how was my Jeep, it was used in a winter station. Image = pull plow
    The spare tyre was located on the roof, and there was lights on the windscreen.
    This is why I have 11 leaves to hold the rear wheels.

    Interesting how the chrome bumpers are only listed for the 2WD models. They have several photos for the various tops showing 4WD Tuxedo Parks with the chrome bumpers, front and rear.
    Nice find and thanks for sharing the brochure.

    Quick edit; I'm not sure if those are Tuxes. They have side reflectors front and rear, but they still have the corner top sockets that should have been gone by the time of reflectors.. Early photoshopping by Kaiser Jeep?

    I'd like to see the tripod mounted mirrors.
    Can't say I've ever seen those on a CJ.

    Another observation;
    The "safety rail", (aka grab bar) pictured is on a '63 MK lll Tux. You can see the remote control shifter, and those are the early vent control knobs under the dash, and chrome rimmed speedo.
    Keep in mind, this is a 1970 brochure.

    The tire mounted on top of the hard top shown in the "pull plow" photo....
    Can't say I've ever seen that option either....not much snow around here though.

    And here I always thought that handsome chrome-plated rail was to help keep the passenger in.

    Ya beat me to it. (By days) :) Those heater controls, plus the knob placement around the speedo cluster stick out like a sore thumb. Also they mention the roll bar as an accessory.

    Apparently they didn't worry about the inconsistencies. Small front marker lights on some of the Jeeps with the fender reflectors? I'd like to see the wheel well seating they described, which sounds like what Land Cruisers and Land Rover 88's had.

    On the third page (not included here) are the mounting instructions for the mirror on the CJ. I've not seen so much as a CJ photo with the tripod set-up.
