Old JEEP, please ID this one?

[Hyades]

The hangar across from us at Lanseria this oak pulls in with this Jeep, I asked if it's a legit Willis Jeep, to which he said yes, but I know less than nothing about these cars. Thought you guys might have more details and also just like to see these picture. I even took a spin in the thing.

Very COOL!

Flippen very nice. Did you buy it from him?

I can’t really make out the VIN but it looks like a genuine WW2 Ford. You can tell it’s a Ford version because the grill had 9 slots. Willy’s were 7 slots. But both vehicles are virtually the same & had the Go-Devil engines.

Anywhere between 1941 & 45. Depending on the year, those are still quite common.

They are still damn capable

[Jaco Jeep RIP]

That Jeep are a MB jeep. 1941 to 1945. Looking on the pics, its a pitty it aint all origanal. Acc pedall and the starting button on the floor

Haha, I wish. No, the guy got it yesterday, didn't have too much time to talk to him. The hangar is full of collectable cars and bikes. Even has a brand spanking new Alfa 4C in there.

There's a VERY nice Huey (helicopter) in there. I'll get some pics.

Hoekom is sy stuurwiel aan regter kant? Hethulle in 1941-45 civilian jeeps vir uitvoer britse mark gemaak?

[XJ Junkie]

Conversions to RHD were quite common. I don’t think any came out of the factory as RHD

[Reenen]

So gedink. So baie vêr van original af dan? Of tel conversion na rhd nie as n verandering?

[ThysleRoux]

Daar is 'n hele paar anomalies - ek sien die speedo is ook convert na km/h. Die oorspronklike was tot 60 mpu afgemerk.

Locklaw op DAARDIE forum sal omdop en die mat kou uit frustrasie
