Original bow frame,engine,transmission and running gear.Original steering wheel as well.has a cj windshield frame and the front horns and bumper will need work.most parts have been derusted and primed including the tub.the tub is original with Ford script on back.part of the front floorboard will need to be repaired as well as a few places around the outside of the tub where it was bondoed but will need to be cut oiut and patches welded.also will need a new gas tank well welded in and I would replace the passenger side rear quarter panel.

I have a replacement passenger side cowl step but havent purchased the other replacement parts yet.I have found the original early star pattern on hood overlapping onto the cowling as well as the “BOBCAT”stencil n the side.Unsure if that is the nickname of the sodier or referring to operation Bobcat of WW 2 on Bora Bora. Full of history I was going to make this a navy jeep grey with black accents making the Fs and Ford scripts stand out in matte black.i will post pics when i get a chance to upload them”

1940 Bantam BRC Photo eBay

• CATEGORIES: Bantam-FordGP-WillysMA-EarlyJPs, Features, Old Images This site contains affiliate links for which I may be compensated.

This is a great press release photo taken a little more than a week after the Bantam arrived at Holabird for testing. Thanks to Steve for finding it.

One thing I noticed about the photo. See how the dirt from behind the front fender was thrown onto the side of the jeep. I’m wondering if the thing we’ve called the step on the sides was actually not a step at all, but specifically designed as a mud flat to stop that from happening. I just never thought about it in those terms before (maybe I’m just behind the curve on that??).

“1940- Bantam prototype #1 during testing at Camp Holabird Quartermaster Depot.”
