Buying an
Ex-army Vehicle
The US Army Willys and Ford 'Jeeps' are a great vehicle
to own and are often the first ex-army vehicle that many military hobbyists
get to buy. Their relatively small size means that they'll fit in a
single garage and the cost of those all-important spares is not too
high. Interest in military vehicles is as high as it's ever been and
the demand for spares and accessories means that just about every part
is available and easy to find thanks to the web.
The side valve power plant, the 2.2 litre, 4 cylinder
'Go-Devil' engine is (comparatively) economical and like the rest of
the jeep is easy to fix. Compared to a modern car, the jeep is simplicity
itself to work on as everything was designed for ease of access and
replacement. There's loads of room in the engine bay, you can crawl
underneath it to fix things and as long as you are a reasonable competent
home mechanic or hobbyist, you'll find that there are not many jobs
that you can't cope with.
What are they like to drive?
In a word fun! When you drive one, you realise how insulated
from the outside world you are in a modern vehicle. With the hood and
windscreen down, it feels more like you are sitting on top of the vehicle
rather than in it.
The jeep is very 'hands on' and needs input all the
time. It lets you know this with a level of feedback that you just don't
get in a power steering, air conditioned, seat-cushioned sound-proofed
modern car. You get in, start the engine (by pushing a button with your
foot) and after releasing the handbrake (in the dash) you start off
in first gear (where second is usually!). You get road noise from the
tyres, the engine makes a loud whining sound, everything vibrates and
rattles and you feel every bump and pothole - but it's great!

comments 1943 Ford GPW Jeep. A new vehicle to the UK. Vehicle has a
good chassis, the body tub, has the usual rust problems (floor), parts
are easily available to repair this. The engine runs fine, the gearbox
and transfer box appear to function as they should. It does look like
there is some original markings under the years of paint. The vehicle
will be sold with all documents (US Title) and the (customs proof of
payment) C&E 386 to prove that all duties have been paid. I am happy
to help send the vehicle any where, I have a car trailer for hire if
assistance is needed to move the vehicle in the UK. Please call for
an appointment to view or e mail for more details.

This is a very nice accurate depiction of an SAS jeep as seen in the
North African campaigns of 1940-43.
The jeep is a Ford, 1942, it has many complete period accessories including
a 30 cal (gas firing gun) a drivers mounted (gas firing) Bren gun and
a pair of Vickers K guns(repro). War time dated jerry cans, theodolite,
period tent, shovel etc.
Willy's/Ford Jeep - The first Jeeps to arrive in the North African
theatre were those issued to Stirling's SAS (which had relied on LRDG
transport until they were equipped with their own Jeeps in early 1942).
After the SAS had to abandon some Jeeps in the desert, these were salvaged
and repaired by LRDG patrols; soon after, all patrols were equipped
with their own Jeeps as replacements for the 15cwt Chevrolets. The legendary
desert performance and reliability of the Jeeps made them ideal for
LRDG patrols. Some of LRDG's Jeeps were later used in the Balkan and
in Italy (where the patrol trucks were of little use).
In contrast to all the other vehicles, the Jeeps required very few modifications
to be fit for desert use;
The jeeps were stripped of all non-essential parts including the windscreen,
most of the radiator grille bars and even sometimes the front bumper
to increase the effective load carrying capacity of the vehicle. Thus
the large amount of fuel and water needed for fast long-range raids
could be carried avoiding the need for slower support vehicles. A water
condensing unit was fitted to the front to reduce loss from the radiator
which would otherwise have had to be topped up from the limited drinking
water supplies. The jeeps also carried sand mats, metal wheel channels,
radio equipment and large quantities of ammunition.
The jeeps were heavily armed with combinations of both Browning and
Vickers K machine guns. The ex-aircraft Vickers weapons were generally
mounted in pairs and a total of up to five machine guns were carried
on some vehicles. The effectiveness of this armament firing a mix of
ball, armour-piercing and tracer shells can be judged from one assault
on an airfield where 12 aircraft were destroyed in a five minute raid.
With all guns blazing a single SAS jeep could deliver an impressive
5000 rounds per minute! The net result was that over 400 aircraft had
been destroyed on the ground by November 1942.

comments I have a M151 MUTT. THis is the very first version, not the
A1 or A2. Jeep was restored completely and repainted the drab green
with all stars and decals and parked under a barn with the rear end
sitting out. There for the rear ends paint is flaking and the front
still looks like it was sprayed yesterday. The seats are in decent shape.
Engine and transmission work as they are supposed to. It has the standard
4speed transmission and the single stage 4x4. It was also rustproofed
by a company in philly. The crossmembers under the jeep are in very
good shape and have very light rust. This jeep has NEVER been cut and
rewelded. The panels are straight with no dents or rust. Floor pans
have no rust. Battery box has no rust. Wiring is in decent shape for
how old it is.Rear end isindependent suspension similar to the VW beatle.
Price is somewhat negotiable but this jeep only needs alil paint to
be show quality. NO low ballers. Call or text. John. (830) 534-5184

SAS Jeep - Three Vickers 'K's and a Browning M2A1
gave the jeep a lot of punch. Its role was to attack enemy airfields
at night, often after a desert journey of hundreds of miles -
hence the large amount of extra water and petrol carried. The
cylinder on the front is a condenser which allowed water boiling
over from the radiator to be re-used. |
How did the jeep get its
name?
The origins of the name jeep have been argued
about pretty much since the vehicle appeared and are happilly
still as obscure as ever. The top theories in no particular
order are:
A contraction of the initials 'GP' from General
Purpose although Ford say that 'G' stood for Government and
'P' for the wheelbase.
Derived from the ubiquitous character in the popular
Popeye cartoons, Eugene the jeep was a happy little character
from the cartoons of E C Segar.
Eugene was given to Popeye's girlfriend Olive
Oyl by her Uncle Ben in 1936. He could appear and disappear
at will, tell the future and travel in the fourth dimension...
Willys is pronounced as ' willis - not ' willies'
! and they have Just
Enough Essential
