10 Minutes of Insane Willys Jeep Footage

[@one4x4nut]

Get ready for a bunch of crybabies... haha

[@0xsergy]

@The Weapon Collection with no roll cage the lack of seat belts is a safety feature. Gotta be ready to jump ship

[@harveyml04]

I mean if the jeep is all original and unrestored but in good condition, of which quite a few where I am are, this shouldn’t be done especially so without roll cage but if the jeep has had work done to it then it should be safe and jeeps are allowed to stretch their legs every now and then especially old flat fenders

[@lancekreis3645]

if it was good enough for the greatest generation of all time, its good enough for me and if the thing every breaks you can prob fix it with a piece of wire, a screw driver or a pair of pliers

[@rexjolles]

@@lancekreis3645 unless a part actually breaks, good luck spending $709 bucks for a part sent from San Bernardino that'll get here in 5 weeks

[@rexjolles]

Hey man the only thing that would be cryable is if these shits were original, clearly al of them were restored or fucked with so it doesn't matter

[@zerolash406]

It warms my heart to see these old jeeps being enjoyed!

[@TheACRay]

ditto!

[@SocialistDistancing]

I owned a 1947 CJ-2A in the 80s. They have some real advantages over larger 4x4s. My friend had a 1949 CJ-2A. We had a lot of fun with those Jeeps.

[@russetwolf13]

You get similar advantages out of old subarus. Small and light is such a valuable trait when offroading, we had an old VW Bus that would pull crazier shit offroad than a lot of 4x4 SUV's will do now.

[@SocialistDistancing]

@@russetwolf13 ya, it seems that a lot of old technology is more resilient and capable than all the new crap that they want to sell us. I can fix an old Jeep on the side of The road. New vehicles, you need a tow truck and a analyzer. Garbage if you ask me. You won't see any restoring these computerized plastic vehicles.

[@sammyboy423]

When someone tells me their Jeep has been driven by an old man has been pampered its whole life, this is what I am think it looks like.

[@Buck1954]

They were designed to go anywhere and they do. Had a buddy with a Korean vintage willys and he was always pulling monster trucks from stuck situations. Then to add shame, go into the same hole and out in 2wd. [add] I had a '77 CJ-5 and it also went everywhere I pointed it. No mods. Loved the way mine would drive itself. I see you guys having fun with that too. Wish I still had it now.

[@axiomist4488]

Get another one. I want one of these babies .Pure FUN !

[@DavidPinner-z1z]

I went places in my 66 Ford half ton 2 wheel drive that 4x4 guys would say how did you get here. Went places in a 77 Nova that 4x4 s were afraid to go learn to drive.

[@Grampas-jeep]

That was a fun little montage. I’m proud to have been included.

[@xmo552]

I recognize your name and Jeep from when I used to watch videos on Willys. I had a Comanche fall into my possession... so I'm building that, but what I'd like to have is something like yours. Would you mind sharing what upgrades your lil 4x4 has such as gears, lockers, etc, or a general build list? Thanks 🙏 And Merry Christmas 🎅 Edit: I just found your modifications video.

[@xmo552]

I traded a running Rambler for a 72 cj5 with no drivetrain. Woohoo!

[@Grampas-jeep]

@@xmo552 makes sense. Jeep brand was owned for a while by AMC, the parent brand of Rambler.

[@michaelwier1222]

Makes me want to get my Willys running again. Thanks for the video!

[@hennygoossens3655]

this is what willys are made for, keep up the good work and keep those cars out of museums

[@rexjolles]

They shouldn't be in museums because they're all restored anyway so it's nothing special to look at. Same thing with my car. Its nothing special, just because it's 72 doesn't mean jack. Its rusty and creaky and falling apart with 30% of the car being Bondo, but I wouldn't trade it for the world. When I die it's getting donated to a museum though. I can't let anyone else have her. Too many morons would drop a big block in there and fuck it up

[@undeadbrosm41a39]

I guess I don't need a 6 in lift and 30 light bars to go off roading!

[@DavidPinner-z1z]

Learn how to drive

[@undeadbrosm41a39]

@user-or9vi8nf7l I'm not saying I have that stuff, my jeep has 29 in tires and has never gotten stuck. Take it off road all the time. Never gotten stuck

[@jamal4381]

@@DavidPinner-z1zhow old are you?

[@ait113]

These jeeps are one hell of a lot tough to drive,as all of the operating systems are manual, steering, breaking, clutch timings for gear transmission etc. But the best thing about these jeeps is indestructible.

[@branon6565]

They are not difficult to drive, I own 3 Jeeps and one of em has 4 stick shifts in it, they're fun to drive....

[@randy-mw5dq]

You'd be surprised many of these have power steering and disck brakes

[@russetwolf13]

Humvee drivers: This ain't yer gran'pappy's jeep! Yer Gran'pappy's jeep:

[@dandolen1300]

Seeing that jeep in the snow having fun, reminded me of the willy's my dad had. He would go to work me and my brother would get it out and do the same things. I really enjoy this old iron work horses.

[@VinnyMartello]

Willys: The Third Reich couldn't stop us! So what's a little dirt and snow?

[@doncarlo5]

well ... they had the VW 166 "Schwimmwagen" ...

[@josephjoestar3275]

@@doncarlo5 we also had the Ford GPA

[@steveaw5895]

Great video! Brought back some good memories of playing with Jeeps. I had a ‘66 CJ 5 with the 225 v6. My brother had a Land Cruiser.. We had lotsa fun.

[@timothymartin9523]

Cool, I had a ‘67 CJ 5 with the 225 V6, lots of FUN with it

[@xmo552]

@The Weapon Collection How's that 401? I'm thinking of swapping one into my bro's 1954 Chevy car.

[@roadmasterz]

Fun video! Really makes me want an old willys

[@randomcitizen2384]

Fun stuff! Good to see a 3B in there.

[@floydblandston108]

My Dad used to say, "Those old Jeeps do a lot better with half a squad lifting and pushing them." : D (He had the job of teaching new G.I.'s how to field drive M38A1's.)

[@sweetpeahelmer]

These jeeps are in my opinion the best car ever manufactured in the world

[@bradleyweiss1089]

Small wonder Jeep’s became so popular after the war. And remain so.

[@bryanmartinez6600]

Modern jeeps are not comparable to the Willy's the front axle is so far up you can clear anything

[@bossplayerunit4563]

honestly I quite like the sound of the engine on these older jeeps

[@jefflilyea4669]

41 willys cars also come with this engine

[@2crazy654]

the jeep driving itself got me thinking of mader da dawg truck💀

[@amrendra6232]

now i get the concept they Willey is like a horse ,it is as brave as you are.

[@diehardsandman]

Awesome! LOL reminds me of my younger days! So much fun

[@studiovladosproduction5936]

That's great to see all of videos, you are and your Willys Jeeps are incredible good, guys!

Tough, rugged, reliable simplicity, the Willys Jeep.

[@12361870]

Any of these jeeps have the seat conversion to mount it further back? My dream is to own a flatfender but I’m 6’6” and not thin

[@TurnNBurn]

You can cut the fender wells. A CJ3A has 2" more room than earlier models.

[@eduardocastaneda622]

Very good, I love willis

[@atomic2012a]

LOL the first shot is almost taking out the cameraman and the second is clearly a mormon church, a place i like to go everytime it snows for the exact same reason he did, snow donuts!! hehe its clear at least some of this was shot in UT, for sure the rock crawling part

[@TurnNBurn]

The church was down the road from my duplex in college. You are correct on the Utah part - Moab

[@eddiehiggins1714]

I had a 1960n Square fender pickup with a Super Hurricane flathead six cylinder That in low range would climb anything short of a brick wall, loved the pickup had to get rid of it for family reasons I paid 200 for it in Montana put a clutch in it sold it in Phoenix 3 yrs later for $1000.I sold it in 1988 and I still miss that truck to this very day.

[@brsrc759]

🤣🤣 good fun bro! I love the school bus toy hauler

[@finnmcool2]

I've always wanted to meet the people that thought the humvee would be a replacement for the jeep. There would be much pointing and laughing. To be fair, though, as long as the military never leaves deserts the humvee is fine. Just don't let them near trees or streams.

[@whathappensinmaine5463]

My dad was in the service. A commander was bragging abouy how humvees can go anywhere. Alls he said "ive seen willys jeeps go places 4x4 trucks couldnt go, you really wanna brag" he tried to take it down a small trail and burried it. Had to be towed out. Never underestimate a willys jeep.

[@rexjolles]

The 80's humvees are pretty good though, the woodland camo ones, I've seen some of those shits do crazy stuff. Even the ambulances 😂 you can get them for around $4000

[@goreerh]

A lotta these are at Badlands in Attica right? I been there a few times looks familiar.

[@TurnNBurn]

Yep!

[@redneck400m3]

This is like seeing an old muscle car rippin down an dirt road. Love seeing old iron doing what it was built to do

[@rogermetzger7335]

3:15 - 3:23 Forerunner of today's self-driving cars. Most of the soldiers in WWII had never even seen a 4WD vehicle, let alone driven one. Can you imagine how astonished they were when they learned the capabilities of that little Willys jeep? (And yes, they are tiny compared to most of the 4WD vehicles built in the twenty-first century.)

[@672egalaxie6]

this was awesome!

And that thing can be disassemble and assembled by the US Army in just under 20mins 😂
