Description
Arguably more important than the Churchill tank or the Supermarine Spitfire, the Jeep is for many the definitive Second World War vehicle; a workhorse of the Allied powers during war which remained in service all round the world for decades afterwards.
Born out of the American Quartermaster Corps' 1940 invitation to submit a prototype go-anywhere four-wheel drive light reconnaissance vehicle which led to a three-way competition between Bantam, Willys-Overland and Ford, the winning design's simple but effective chassis, ingenious transmission, rugged suspension, and flathead Go-Devil 60hp 2.2-litre 'four' proved invaluable for hauling troops out of trouble.
This self same combination ensures that the indomitable Jeep remains great fun to drive today.
About 650,000 MB types were built between 1941 and 1945, by Willys and (in greater numbers) by Ford, and manufacture continued under licence in the '50s and '60s by Hotchkiss for the French Army.
