with several body modifications to make theTorino more competitive in Nascar. The front end is
longer and the rockers were extended lower to make them more aerodynamic. All Talladegas
had the 428 Cobra Jet engines and automatic transmission. The hoods were blacked out and a
special stripe was applied from the front to the back. The Talladegas also had special emblems

1942 Ford GPW Military Jeep
Produced in December 1942; Serial #84189; All original body restored to better than new
quality. Many period correct accessories. It has the center and right side 1919 Browning A4
machine guns, original tow bar, desert cooling package, 2 piece combat wheels, original
compass, 90% "F" marked parts and bolts.
Now for the history, Willys received the contract from the U.S. Government to build the military
Jeeps. As soon as production began, Pearl Harbor was bombed and the war escalated. The
Military needed to increase production, so they went to Ford for help. The Willys and Ford were
produced basically identical so all the parts would be interchangeable. One primary difference
was in the first year of production (1942), Ford stamped their name on the back of them like a
pickup. In 1943, the Government made them remove the Ford logo on the Jeep to protect the
Willys patent. Aside from the rear logo, Ford stamped every part of the Jeep down to the bolts
with an "F" to represent a Ford produced part. Another difference setting Ford apart from
Willys is all Ford's serial numbers started with "GPW" and Willys started with "MB." After 60+
years of service, what you find is the Willys Jeeps with Ford parts and Ford Jeeps with Willys
parts. Over the years they mixed and matched parts, so the majority of Jeeps, whether Willys
or Ford, are no longer 100% original.
These early military Jeeps are a very important symbol of American History and are the
forefathers of the Jeep Wranglers which are still popular today. During tough times, our US
automakers, as well as other manufacturers, banded together to support the war effort
producing Jeeps, airplanes, tanks, trucks, and weapons. This alone should make ALL
AMERICANS continually support the US automakers. Without them we may not have been
successful and our freedom could have been jeopardized.

have plans to add more in the future.
