Winneco Palmer Plastic Jeep Model on eBay

• CATEGORIES: Features, Models This site contains affiliate links for which I may be compensated.

I don’t know how vintage this is, but it looks like it’s never been assembled.

“Winneco Palmer Plastics 1/35 US Army Willys Jeep. I had no idea Palmer Plastics did WWII military kits until this item crossed my desk. It’s complete and unstarted with all parts still sealed in the factory polybag. Decals (a bit age-yellowed) and instructions are both included.”

CJ-3Bs in Vietnam

Roberto forwarded several links to CJ-3Bs from Vietnam in the 1960s. Interestingly, they all had tool indents. I suspect these are made by Mahindra rather than Willys. Any thoughts?

A Ford GPA Makes James’ Day

• CATEGORIES: Features, GPA (SEEP) This site contains affiliate links for which I may be compensated.

James was driving today in Colorado and spotted this Ford GPA SEEP parked just off the road.

He writes, “I found this gem along side of the road today. I was on my way to pick up my 1947 cj2a. It turns out the owner is also an eWillys reader! It’s amazing that these cars are still being driven and not stuck in a museum. This made my day!
