Junior Replicas
also produces a reproduction of this
model using a 2/3 scale.
The Willys M38 appeared in 1948, when
the U.S. Army urgently needed
a 4x4 vehicle of 1/4 ton., but did not
wont to commit the resources
necessary to developed a new model.
The solution was to take an
existing civilian model, produced
by Willys Overland, the CJ3A and
to militarise it with all the necessary
add-ons. This model was then
incorporated into the Army,
under the designation M38, and had a brilliant
performance during the Korea war in 1950.
Jeep and Willys are registered trademark of Daimler-Chrysler Corporation
M38 and MB models,
both exact replicas
of the original
models, are
supplied on the
U.S. Army official
WW II colours:“Olive Drab” and
“Desert Sand”.
