Extremely Beautifully Restored 1942 FORD GPW, known as a Military Jeep, Early 1942 with #FORD Script in Olive Drab paint with Green Canvas Interior Finishes. The Willys MB and the Ford GPW, both formally called the U.S. Army Truck, 1/4-ton, 4×4, Command Reconnaissance, commonly known as the Willys Jeep, Ford Jeep, or jeep, and sometimes referred to as G503, the American Bantam car company invented, developed and produced the first prototype. These were highly successful American off-road capable light military utility vehicles built in large numbers to a standardized design for the United States and other Allied forces in World War II from 1941 to 1945. A big thank you to Steve for being our Host.

Steve is such a legend.
Bantam? Hello? Ever heard of the American Bantam Car Company? They designed the initial prototype. The BRC....Karl Probst. Do you people do any research at all? OMG.
I like Jeep M38
It's great.
It was Bantam which originally designed the Jeep. Willys and Ford came later... Guys please don't distort history...
I was going to comment on that too ! Carl Probst and Bantam Car Co actually INVENTED the jeep but were a smaller company than Willys . Willys refined it and their "Go Devil" won everybody over because it was peppier than both the Bantam and the Ford tractor engine . I still can't believe they didn't even mention Bantam in this video .
👍 👍 👍!!!
I've noticed with our 1944 willy Jeep the bonnet has that overhang lip for your fingers to lift the hood and when we went to open a GPWs we tried about 3 times before we noticed it was different shorter and harder to open the hood haha it was one of them confused moment's what's going on hahaha!
EXelente la historia un saludo desde Argentina
Got the willy stamped grill with the small buldge at the bottom for the support bracket to the tubed Front frame GPW also had 3 holes in the front bumper to willy 1 centred good way to spot a willys or GPW straight off
Hi super sir

the real reason of the popular cartoon character Jeep the GIs knicknamed it named after at the time from Popeye! It's even on willy's original catalogue I have! Being a GP (General Purpose) it was given the knickname "Jeep" that's the official statement in my willy catalogue anyway and what I've always went by as it's in this
and the Willys had headlights that could be turn inside for doing mecanic at night
ALSO THE GPW/Ford has the same kind of ligths OBVIOUSLY😊
jeep is the name of the poppay the seilor man her dog 🐶🐶🐶 jeep jeep
does the color seem too lime green for anyone else?
