900 cars you've reviewed? Man I'm not sure how long you can keep this blazing pace up, but you're already prolific. Wishing you 900 more and beyond, love your work!

Kilroy was here ..., (OUO) ,... James J. Kilroy (1902-1962), an American shipyard inspector, as the man behind the signature. By Richard W. O’Donnell During the war, Kilroy worked as a checker at the Fore River Shipyard in Quincy. His job was to go around and check on the number of rivets completed. Riveters were on piece work and got paid by the rivet. Kilroy would count a block of rivets and put a check mark in chalk, so the rivets wouldn’t be counted twice. When he went off duty, the riveters would erase the mark. Later on, another checker would come through and count the rivets a second time, resulting in double pay for the riveters. One day Kilroy’s boss called him into his office. The foreman was upset about all the wages being paid to riveters, and asked Kilroy to investigate. It was then that he realized what had been going on. The tight spaces he had a crawl in to check the rivets didn’t lend themselves to lugging around a paint can and brush, so Kilroy decided to stick with the chalk. He continued to put his check mark on each job he inspected, but he added “Kilroy was here” in king-size letters next to the check. Once he did that, the riveters stopped wiping away his marks. Ordinarily the rivets and chalk marks would have been covered up with paint. With war on, however, ships were leaving the Quincy yard so fast that there wasn’t time to paint them. As a result, Kilroy’s inspection “trademark” was seen by thousands of servicemen who boarded the troopships the yard produced. His message apparently rang a bell with these servicemen, because they picked it up and spread it all over Europe and the South Pacific. Before the war’s end, "Kilroy” had been here, there, and everywhere on the long haul to Berlin and Tokyo. Along the way, someone added the sketch of the chap with the long nose peering over the fence, and that became part of the Kilroy message. Kilroy was here ..., (OUO) ,...

You know Zach, you should do an episode on your favorite episodes you’ve done over the years. I would love to see that.

Not a car. A truck. The WW2 Jeep is classified as a one and quarter ton truck with quarter ton carry capacity.

This one did feel special! Such a cool unique vehicle with a great story

Congratulations from Indonesia on the 900th car review milestone, Zack! Also, I really love this review so much. It's always nice to see people preserving these vintage cars like this Willys MB.^^

Im lucky enough to have a Willys MB here in England , love her to bits . 'Bella' wows the crowds at shows etc but we take her to get the weekly shopping as well :)

You gave that Jeep the proper respect it deserves. Well done.

The fading stencils under the hood/bonnet of my original 1942 Willys MB are as follows..." Truck 1/4 ton U.S. This amazing vehicle is therefore a truck.......not a car. Good video. Greetings from Australia. Les Griffiths

Bantun motor cars came up with the First original winning design. The government gave Ford and Willy's the design specs from Bantam to the other two for a second chance knowing that they had the capabilities for mass production! Bantam still have a contact for the trailers! From Butler Pennsylvania just 10 miles from where the Bantam plant was? Proud of our heritage! Thank You for the information and Remembering our history!

I been in the US army since 2010, rode many hmmwv but never a jeep. I see now that the the Guage cluster, steering wheel, turn signal stick, seat cushion are either exactly the same as the hmmwv or similar. Now we are slowing starting to replace hmmwv with mrap, I am an avenger operator so we will probably be some of the last soldiers to drive hmmwv (I'm tracking they stop producing them). Mrap has about nothing physically in common with the jeep.

Way to go Zack, you are one of the top reviewers in my opinion, you rank up with guys much older and seasoned because of your particular perspective that is lacking in most folks under 50 years old....keep up the fantastic work my man.

The leftover jeeps in the philippines were turned into Jeepneys basically little buses they use to this day. you might be able to find one in Chicago not sure. theres only a few in the us

Congrats on 900! It's great how you'll review anything and everything (as long as it doesn't require a specialized license). It's incredible how you have so much variety. Doug reviewing the latest most limited $3M Lamboclarenarri is less interesting than you finding a legendary Jeep. The MB and GPA were key to winning the war. Interestingly, the Germans had the Kubelwagen (VW Beetle based, basically a Thing predecessor). It was 2WD but because of the light weight, flat body, and good traction it could slide over things easily. Blackout lights are interesting. The first click turns on two marker lights with two slits each up front and two marker lights with four slits each in the back. You can tell if you're too close, too far, or just right by how many individual lights you can pick out. There is also a small white slit for braking which would be on the right taillight, on this Jeep it has been swapped out for a standard brake light. The second slit turns on that hooded light on the fender. It casts light just past the bumper so you can see the Jeep in front or someone walking along but can't be directly seen. You wouldn't go faster than walking pace in a pitch-black convoy and your eyes have to be fully dark adjusted. The M38 and M38A1 weren't that different from the CJs but you have to try to find a Ford M151 MUTT. Independent suspension and a unibody. They had some handling issues so they weren't officially sold as surplus but a few escaped. The M422 Mighty Mite is super rare, good luck finding one. I drove an Altima for a few weeks. Despite my best efforts I still felt like I had to drive like an Altima driver. It's the car, I tell you.

Love your channel Zack! Keep the unique and rare vehicles coming Congratulations on 900🎉

Technically, this was not considered to be a car, but *1/4-ton, 4X4 truck.* By 1944, as it is an MB model, it was manufactured by Willys-Overland. If it was a GPW model all parts would have been interchangable but manufactured by Ford.

They had a purpose. A novelty in today's world. Jeeps are great I had a 99 TJ sport. I would drive it for twelve hours on the highway, then two rutter to where I almost wanted to go, then literally off-road it to my fishing spot. I would put plywood under the tires to keep it from sinking too much.

The most beautiful and reliable car ever produced by mankind. Love it❤️❤️❤️❤️👍👍😎

I Love the Fact that you Actually Mentioned How THE Toyota FJ and Range Rover Started!

I assumed the biggest threat to American vehicles would have been the Honda civic

I like to try to imagine young men who had never even seen a four-wheeil-drive vehicle getting into one of these and learning where it could go.

900 vids! Your content is awesome Zack. . .please keep'em coming!

Sucha beautiful WW2 jeep. Someone put great love and care into restoring it. Although Western Allied forces didn’t get as far as Poland.

Im not even american but american classic jeep design is.... Perfection

I wish you had mentioned the Willys licensed Jeeps of Mitsubishi, Hotchkiss, and Mahandra.

Very enjoyable Willys review :). Thanks for making it.

Congratulations on 900!!

I had the pleasure of meeting Matt at the Chicago Auto Show. He saw my Willys on display - and through your video we connected.

If the gas tank is fully accessible from the interior then you can fill it up without leaving your car! That's cool and I was searching for this kind of thing but Google didn't find anything.

what about the jeep caused you to climax the most?

It's amazing that a young man like you has already driven at least 900 different cars! Truly amazing.

Thats a cool review man...thanks for sharing

Congratulations on 900 reviews

LOVED this episode!

Great video!

I feel like I've seen the jeep at events but I can't remember where Love from a 43 GPW owner

That is a badass ride

Can we just take a moment to recognize the other piece of history in this video. At 7:51, the Wilhelm scream! 😅

I always admire the Willy’s. I still have one at home to rebuild back.

That was a very well done episode. Great job.

BEST JEEP EVER MADE

Great video... GREATER WILLY JEEP!

This was great!

Fun fact: the Soviet WW2 jeep clone, the GAZ-67, was designed in under 2 months when the People's Commisar of medium machinery showed a picture of Bantam's Jeep to the head designer of GAZ and basically said "I want that thing"

My favorite thing about these is the combination of good speed, acceleration, and complete lack of saftey equipment

Just beautiful 💯

I like the back side of the his model a lot because it's comes with a rear tail tires & jerrycan which is the only model have this option. I was planning to do that on my jeep but no way you can do that as there is no space enough to do that, as what I see on this model there is no rear door.

A wonderful pise of machinery.

9:42 which m1!? There are a million m1s! Yes i know he probably ment the m1 garand.

Il aurait fallu l'inventer si elle n'avait pas existé, cette p'tite MERVEILLE ! 🙏😍

The 1945 Willy is the ideal addition to anyone's collection of war memorabilia. Just picture it in your mancave, next to your curated collection of bayonets, and unexploded grenades. Of course it's still functional, but you're not actually going to charge into combat with it... Are you?

Most iconic car ever

What city are you in ?? It looks beautiful

Ooo congrats

Awesome video but when you said what do I think about driving it I didn’t get your feedback on how it actually drives

You want to review a funky, post-war Jeep-based vehicle? Scoot on over to the PI and get a load of the Jeepney. Acid trips on wheels, brother.

Ford wouldn't do warranty repairs without the Ford stamp.

Ya love to see it

wowwww 900 cars review............

Bonjour à vous, très belle jeep...mais je n ai pas l'impression que la caisse est d' origine ??? J'ai personnellement une jeep de 1944 et ce véhicule n'a pas d'encoche au tableau de bord ( en haut à côté du frein à main )et il n'y a pas de trous pour les rivets à pression pour les portes ? Cordialement Thierry

Love the altima joke.. I hate Nissan drivers

Toyota had their own 4x4 in ww2

10:22 that’s not how Toyota developed the Land Cruiser. Nor the Land Rover

How about how white flight created the SUV.

im restoring a 1989 GMC 4x4 3/4 ton truck i want to have it painted this green

Is it for sale?

It's really irking me that it says Jeep on the head/valve cover. In 1944, the brand didn't exist yet

C que du BONHEUR pour les YEUX..... 🙏😍😍😍😍😍😍😍

Only 100 until 1000 reviews

Beratus ratus tahniah from Malaysia after beyond thousand reviews its beribu ribu tahniah

Germans still had some horses in WW2.

I like you bro

Gov can't tell Ford what to do with its own products?? In the 40s? TF

"The car ..."? Really?

Land Rover was never based on Jeep ) What absurd are you saying

Ты жрать меньше пробывал? А что джип под тобой разваливается.
