4.0 out of 5 stars
Good for run-of-the-mill jobs
A very complete and comprehensive manual for basic-difficult repairs on all models of CJ's. I own a 1947 CJ2A and use this book as a supplement to online forums and mechanics advise. I do wish that they would have broken the book up into the specific CJ models though; a lot of the book is spent describing parts/showing pictures that don't apply to my '2A!

It's better than nothing
Despite what you may have read, this book doesn't cover any Jeeps that Patton may have ridden in. It covers civilian jeeps (CJ's) only. It's not very useful for restoration because it doesn't offer enough detail on what was stock. Like most Chilton's, it assumes that you know the basics. It also has the usual typos and index problems.

Oldtimers Restoring WWII Jeeps Must Have This Book!,
By Mike Scarborough (The Great Southwest) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Jeep CJ, 1945-70 (Chilton's Total Car Care Repair Manual) (Paperback)
As an oldtimer who always dreamed of having a WWII Jeep and restoring it and who luckily finally got one I can safely say that this book is a must! Every section of the book is important to a restorer and it is complete, easy to follow and has terrific grahics. I wouldn't think of attempting a restoration without Chilton's Jeep CJ 1945-70 Repair Manual. Now to get back to work on that workhorse that carried Patton through the war and played a major part in the victory. Happy Restoring!
