Kinda neat, they forgot to add water though...


This is one of the coolest things I've ever seen! About 6 soldiers pull up on a main street in Halifax ,
Nova Scotia on ( ? ) some holiday. They're in a standard issue WWII type Willys Jeep. In the span of
about 5 to 6 minutes they completely disassemble the vehicle and reassemble it and drive off in it f
ully operable! The idea being to show the genius that went into the making of the jeep and its basic simplicity. Fantastic.

Cute dog video, but what does it have to do with Jeeps?


Sorry about that, I hate it when that happens! Try this again!

That's neat.

But that aint a functional Jeep. I grew up in a Ford GPW and early CJ5. They do not come apart that easy... :D

Hey, give me a break! It is just a movie!:yum:


Yeah, that config would last about five more min's of driving before the engine overheated and smoked...:brows:

The whole unit is just held together just enough to make to to where they can take it apart and put it together for those that are clueless!:whistling:

I had a 1958 that I rebuilt and drove all over the place and loved it, but it took a lot longer to get the thing apart and back together than what they were doing!:unsure:
