I was only about six and had to stand up to Drive it.
I drove whilst Dad fed the Sheep from a Trailer.

FYI in the States these are worth $1.50 US but you need to buy them 300 at a time, lol
They have literally millions of them,
Originally called G.P. GP later being jeep. for general entry level all purpose Vehicle or something like that.
Ford and Willeys battled out for the contract both looked very similar. Willeys/jeep won
making the 7 bar grill their trade mark. The rest is history. Ford used a 9 bar grill

Next time youre next to a jeep wrangle you'll notice the driver is sitting on the rear diff

Buy it for $1.50, and then $1,000,000 on paper towel to clean up the oil it leaves behind.

both landrover and the Willeys jeep have crossed Australia... how many other vehicles, let alone vehicles of that vintage and no mods can claim that...

Bob, that brings back memories. The standing on the seat and steering while Dad was feeding out the hay. My only job was not to hit a stump.

I think it was in a 40 series toymota and then next I think we had a jeep (one of the bigger rounded shape ones)
