Product Description
1:76 Scale model of a Willys Jeep MB produced in die-cast metal. This model is delivered on a black base with an attached clear jewel case ready to be displayed. It can also be unscrewed from the base and placed on your model railway or diorama.
The Willys MB (Model B) Jeep, although only produced between 1941 and 1945, nearly 370,000 rolled of the Willys production line. The ¼ ton, 4x 4 army truck was the result of the US Army need for a light, cross-country reconnaissance vehicle with a specification to include capacity for a crew of three, a fold-down windshield, a weight of no more than 590 kg and a track of no more than 47 inches. It was used extensively by the US and Allied Forces and after the end of World War II, many were sold on into private use.
Our Willys MB makes its third 1:76 scale appearance and is decorated in a dark military green with white military lettering including the US Army white star and is registered EF-HC 31185.15.
