Original Jeep Willys

Old Jeep Willys with modifications

The original Jeep was produced by Willys Overland for the US army during WWII. Its light weight along with durability and four wheel drive allowed it to be used for some impressive off road situations.

Right after the war the Jeeps remained in the countries they where used in. In Iceland, like many other places, they became extremely popular and due to the weather, got added solid shelter for the driver and passengers made of wood.

After all these years the Jeep has kept true to its origins and the newest models are still true descendants to the original.

I think the Jeep is one of the best 4x4s ever. What do you think?

I really enjoy seeing real 4WD vehicles in real situations where they are needed. There are so many highway bound posers that never go off the pavement here that seeing life or death 4 wheeling in Iceland is really refreshing.

It is fun to read about other people's Offroading adventures and also learning from the up and downs of their adventure!
