American WorkHorse : Willy's Jeep



Happy Fourth of July Ladies and Gentleman!



There is nothing more patriotic than war, the act of submitting yourself to the state takes a much larger satchel than I have. To me the most patriotic vehicle of the United States is the Willy's Jeep MB.



This revolutionary vehicle demonstrated it might in World War II as a versatile, reliable, and strong piece of equipment. It was spec'd to be 4x4, lightweight, and to have 85 Lb-ft of torque. Other impressive features of the Willy's Jeep ; developed to be stacked for efficient shipping, has a fold down windshield, and a fold down passenger seat. This vehicle was relatively compact and light for easy access for rock crawling and steep inclines. It measures approx 62 inches wide, 130 inches long, and 2300 lbs.
