History of Willys Jeep
Produced from 1941 to 1945, it evolved post-war into the civilian Jeep CJ and inspired both an entire category of recreational 4WDs and several generations of military light utility vehicles.
By October 1941, it became apparent Willys-Overland could not keep up with the production demand, and Ford was contracted to produce them as well. The Ford car was then designated GPW, with the “W” referring to the “Willys”, licensed design. During World War II, Willys produced 363,000 Jeeps and Ford some 280,000. Approximately 51,000 were exported to the U.S.S.R. under the Lend-Lease program.
When American troops began to leave the Philippines at the end of World War II, hundreds of surplus jeeps were sold or given to local Filipinos. The Filipinos stripped down the jeeps to accommodate several passengers, added metal roofs for shade, and decorated the vehicles with vibrant colors and bright chrome hood ornaments.
