*Jeep Willy’s History
*Willys Quad Story* In June 1940, with World War II on the horizon, the U.S.
Army solicited bids from 135 automakers for a 1/4 ton "light reconnaissance vehicle" tailored to Army specifications. Only three companies responded - Bantam, Willys, and Ford — but, within a year's time they collectively produced the template for the vehicle known worldwide as the "jeep".*Willys-Overland delivered the prototype "Quad" (named
for the 4x4 system it featured), to the U.S. Army on Armistice Day (Veteran's Day), November of 1940. The design was completed in a remarkable 75 days.*Only two prototypes were made.
