Foot note; Willys and Ford built around 650,000 jeeps from 1941 to 1945. It has been best guessed that 75,000 were here in the states when the war ended. A very low precentage returned state side. Given the fact that many were crashed in war and peace time, at least three friends attempted this over the years. Plus I think they might have been beat even harder than the dodge PW. It's amazing how many are still around. I have two GPW Fords 1943 and 1945. I'm starting to believe that state side anyway,there just might be more flat fender PWs than WW2 jeeps. Just my two cents for what it's worth.
