Ford's version of the Willy's jeep, both produced to a standardised US army design, extensive use from WW2 onwards, I believe

100% correct - its a Jeep made by Ford not Willy's. Only real difference is the F script on various parts, however everything is interchangeable and many on the road are bitsa's. Mine is I'd guess 90% original with some new repro parts where needed and Willy's fenders as original Ford ones are about £400 each side.

next gas station near my location
