During the Second World War, the American motor company Willys-Overland Motors began production of their legendary army jeep, the Willys MB. In 1941, mass production of this military utility vehicle began, and they were immediately employed by the Allied forces in large quantities. They went down in history as reliable, maneuverable and functional. It truly was a "technical breakthrough," and a real "motor of war." This jeep features:
- an internal combustion engine with moving pistons, and a trigger lever at the rear of the vehicle;
- a ratchet mechanism;
- a lever to switch direction of movement;
- three moving pedals (each are spring-loaded with its own rubber band control);
- a hitch at the rear of the model designed for its trailer;
- four-wheel drive and independent suspension on both axles;
- removable shovel, ax, and jerry can;
- rearview mirror;
- a drive shaft and semi-axle shafts with crossings, just like you find on a real jeep.
