Bill Spears really seems to like Bantams of all kinds. He’s got a website extensively devoted to exploring Bantams, including a detailed look at the beginning of the jeep. His information seems consistent with what I’ve learned, though I wasn’t familiar with the Checker connection noted below.
Bill also has a list of Bantams, some with pictures and some just a rumor. He also has gathered some images of Bantams in service. Finally, Bill explores the relationship, or inter-relationship, between the “Checker Bantams”, which he calls a CRC, and the Bantam BRC. It’s an interesting read.
Below is one of the Bantam’s that appears on Bill’s list of Bantams page. Click on the image to get to the page.
