2016 World War II Weekend - Mid-Atlantic Air Museum


Tons of War-era Jeeps, aircraft, vintage clothing and movie costumes make the Mid-Atlantic Air Museum's World War II Weekend unforgettable. On Saturday, June 4, we went in to photograph the Jeeps and military vehicles on display there. Among a ton of awesome rigs, we found a Ward LaFrance Wrecker lifting a Jeep (pictured above with toy MB), a GTB Burma Jeep and an awesome view of the tarmac.

New Old Stock Willys MB Motor | June 1944

Still wrapped up and in the crate from 1944.


Everyone who enters the showroom of Army Jeep Parts, Inc. in Levittown, Pa. will be greeted by this exceptional piece of World War II Jeep history. It's a Willys MB engine and it's as original as it comes. Not only is it still sitting in the factory crate from 1944 (June, specifically), but the starter and generator are still in the wear-proof wrapping and the clutch assembly plate is still sealed in the box.

The Original Willys Jeep | 1941 Slat Grille (PHOTOS, VIDEO)



     On Christmas Eve, 1941, not long after the Japanese bombed Pearl Harbor, this slat grille Jeep was delivered from the factory. It was painstakingly restored by a customer of George Baxter, owner of Army Jeep Parts, Inc. Now for sale, this Jeep features details unlike many restorations and is a prime example of the over 100 aspects unique to slat grille army Jeeps.
