Willys Jeep

[fingers66]

This is one of the coolest things! About 8 soldiers pull up on a main street in Halifax , Nova Scotia on some holiday.




They're in a standard issue WWII type Willys Jeep. In the span of about 5 to 6 minutes they completely disassemble the vehicle and reassemble it and drive off in it fully operable!


The idea being to show the genius that went into the making of the jeep and its basic simplicity. Fantastic.. Click below.

Seen it before, good though. Wonder how long it's take to do a Vec?

Just Every Essential Part was why they called them jeeps in the first place. Cant help thinking that would be the way to go with vehicles again but guess we would all miss the toys and comfort too much.

I have a 1944 willys, they got the name Jeep from the Vehicle, General Purpose. name being shortened by stores clerks to vehicle, GP. I've had to make a few changes to the old girl number plates etc but she still goes through her MoT every year!
