Hmmm
"Willys-Overland civilian engineers collaborated with U.S. military experts in producing ' the fighting Jeep" Not a word about Bantam in this 1942 Australian advert

Jeep
Seems that advertisers had jumped onto the " Jeep" bandwagon as these 1945 adverts show

O.K. let's shift a little bit. I understand the T214 Dodge WC was referred to as "Beep" (big jeep) Comments gentlemen? (staying away from "Blitz buggies)
On Jeep grills. I am of the same understanding as Mike, That Ford built the first pressed grills and that all previous Jeeps had "slat" grills. Also the first batch of Fords were built on Willys chassis. So If you like the first pressed grills were fitted on Willys chassis, but were Fords. Clear?
