Ford GP at the Military Air Museum in Pungo, VA

John stopped by the Military Air Museum in Pungo, Virginia, the other day. There he found this nicely restored Ford GP. I asked him how he liked the museum. HIs response was,

Dave, The whole facility is extraordinary! Two surprises, 1) a hanger from Cottbus, Germany, was found intact but damaged. The guy bought it, had it disassembled, shipped to the states and restored and reassembled. Every thing inside is German with one Italian with some of the stuff experimental.
2) Same for a British control tower, every brick was shipped here, rebuilt, and what was broken or missing was replaced from Britain, not the States.

John also stopped by the MacArthur Memorial Museum in Norfolk, VA. The Willys MB shown in the pics below was donated by Chrysler (along with $100,000) and is supposed to be fully restored. There’s no indication that MacArthur used or drove in this jeep.
