DaimlerChrysler's official media Web site was recently redesigned and improved a great deal including the posting of many year's worth of old photos and advertisements. This print ad for a Willy-Overland Jeep Station Wagon is one of our favorites:

The text under the big picture reads:

YOU GET MORE for your money in a Willys-Overland 'Jeep' Station Wagon...and at its new low price, it's a better buy than ever! You get a comforable, smooth-riding passenger car, with inches more headroom and better visibility- 18-50% more glass area-than any popular sedan. You also get a utility vehicle with seats easily removable to give huge load space. Let your Willys-Overland dealer take your family for a trial ride in this doubly-useful steel-body station wagon...top value in its field.
