Description
This is Italeri 0314 1/35 WILLYS JEEP W/TRAILER. Model kit. In 1940, after World War II had broken out, the US general staff ordered various factories to design a light, multi-purpose vehicle with all-wheel drive. The American Bantam Company, Willys Overland and the Ford Motor Co. competed with each other. The Willys prototype was chosen and, after an initial run of 1,500 vehicles, the jeep went into mass production at the beginning of 1941. Some 640,000 Willys jeeps were produced, 277,000 of them by Ford under licence, making it the most widely produced light vehicle of WWII.
