Probably the most famous automobile in the world…the J E E P !

Developed for the Army & U.S. Armed Forces during WWII

And it is still going strong today after almost 80 years.. Enjoy

Did you order a jeep?

Now that’s a kit I would like to have.

I think the Roy Rogers show bought this version as Nelly Bell.

Bullet holes in the windshield of this Jeep are a testament to the faithful service of the Medics of the 84th Division as they evacuate wounded soldiers in their makeshift Jeep ambulance.

Even then they needed armed guards to protect their Jeeps.

Thanks for sharing. A good pictorial history. Wish I could get a Jeep in a box for $50 with spare parts.

Haha, these are some pretty great pictures.
I love the one with the dude leg pressing the Jeep so the other guy can change the tire.

When I was a kid they advertised these kits in the trading post paper all the time. Guess they eventually ran out of them.

The Jeep in a crate is awesome. I'd love to sit in my driveway waiting for that to show up.
