_"Can you believe it, we just got this thing running with a Modelo can and a wrench."_ Welcome to the wonderful world of Willys. You are now a true Jeeper.

This channel is underrated asf, the editing is top notch. Keep up the good work fellas!

[@KiloLima]

No manual front hubs. Cool. The gascolator and fuel pump sight doesn’t need to be full to run properly. Thanks for the great tour.

[@-oiiio-3993]

Selectable hubs were a Warn innovation post - WW2. Warn's first hubs simply eliminated torque to the front axle altogether.

[@jeffwelsh1185]

That Jeep is a slate grill other wise known as a MA. That was the first production Jeep built till they started stamping the grill because it took to long to make the grill. The MB had the stamped grill which is more common to find than the slate grill MA.

[@-oiiio-3993]

Early MB vehicles also had the 'slat grille'. The stamped nine slot grille with hinged headlights mounted behind was a Ford innovation. After Willys Overland began production of the MB, Ford began producing the subcontracted GPW with 'slat grille'. Early in GPW production, Ford engineers designed the improved stamped grille and submitted it to Ordnance (with assurance of complete parts interchange) who approved the design for all subsequent G503 vehicles (Willys MB, Ford GPW).

[@-oiiio-3993]

Also, look at the dash plates at 06:11 in video : "MAKE AND MODEL - WILLYS MB". If body and dash plates are original this is a very early Willys MB (Truck, 1/4 Ton, 4X4, G503) as evidenced by slat grille and 'script body' ( 05:37 ). That ROOTES Ltd. rebuild plate is a definite bonus. Willys is properly pronounced _Will - iss,_ not _'Will - eez'._

[@richardgreen4567]

I like that!

[@-oiiio-3993]

That vehicle is a Willys MB, not (as 'thumbnail suggests) a Willys "General Purpose", which does not exist. Willys is pronounced _Will-iss,_ not "Willies". GP was Ford's designation for their initial contract to build prototypes to compete with the Bantam BRC and Willys MA. The GP stood for _Government, 80" wheelbase_ as 'P' was Ford's internal code for vehicles of 80" wheelbase. After the contract to build _Truck, 1/4 Ton, 4X4, G503_ was awarded to Willys Overland with Ford named as subcontractor, Willys went on to produce over 360,000 of their Model MB as Ford produced over 280,000 of their Model GPW (Government, 80" wheelbase, Willys pattern). Willys' MA indicated _Military, first contract,_ MB was _Military, second contract._ Nice work with the beer can. Been there myself.

[@jonjon9490]

You absolutely nailed it! It’s a huge pet peeve of mine when I see people claiming GP stands for General Purpose all over Facebook when a simple google search would educate them on the real meaning and history. Good job spreading the word!

[@-oiiio-3993]

@@jonjon9490 Thank you. I drive a restored Willys MB.

[@Se7enAnchorsSe7enSeasKnowledge]

nice ones jeep........

[@TheVintageBlake]

Dirk diggler lol this video is going to be huge

[@charlesade]

The probable reason the jeep gets "stranded" is because the gas tank is peeling on the inside, thus getting trapped in the fuel filter/fuel system to make the jeep conk out. I drove a similar jeep when in the Army (in early 1970s). The jeep would stall out especially going up steep hills or when very low on gas.

[@BulletmotorsportsInc]

It was the o ring on main filter letting air in. It has been remedied.

[@-oiiio-3993]

@@BulletmotorsportsInc His guess wasn't bad, though. Been there, done that.

[@richardgreen4567]

All you have change is the mount, to a .50 cal perfect! 😆

[@BulletmotorsportsInc]

or a really awesome super soaker!!

[@-oiiio-3993]

The Browning M2 .50 calibre ('Ma Deuce') fits the same mount as does the .30.

[@-oiiio-3993]

@@BulletmotorsportsInc I'd like to mount a small water cannon on my Willys MB, fed by hose from pump and tank in the MBT 1/4 Ton Trailer. Better yet would be PTO driven.

[@1993MAZDAMIATA]

Man thank god I don’t have a lot of money I would not have it for long if I kept seeing stuff like this haha

[@-oiiio-3993]

It happens. I 'met' a restored late war Willys MB with 908 miles on proper restoration last year. I now drive it.

[@1993MAZDAMIATA]

@@-oiiio-3993 Haha that’s pretty sweet! How many miles on it now?
