Jeeps in Olive Drab
The Jeep was born in an age of global strife. Bred for battle, it became the four-wheel version of the Swiss Army knife, able to do almost anything. To the soldiers who fought in World War II-friend and foe alike-it became a legend. The WWII Jeep inspired many imitations from Willys, the descendant companies that continued the name, and competing manufacturers. Land Rover, Toyota, Nissan, and a few others all owe their beginnings in the 4x4 world to the inspiration of the military Jeep. The 1940 BRC-60 (Bantam Reconnaissance Car-60), also known as the Mark II, was very similar to the original pilot model, but its front fenders had a more military look. Sixty-nine were built to this design and tested with operational Army units in a variety of ways.

The Truck That Did Everything But Bake a Cake
Over the course of World War II, the jeep saw action in every arena. Whether it faced the rice paddies of Asia, the desert sands of Africa, or the snowy peaks of Switzerland, the jeep was equal to the job. It carried men and materials. It helped build roads and bridges. Speed and agility made it a first-rate ambulance. Its hood served as a table or an altar for church services. It could plow snow piled bumper-high.

At the first-ever convention of their kind at Double-Deck RestoGrill along Ortigas Avenue, the men, aged 21 to 75, declared undying love for their passion. Organized by the Philippine Jeep Preservation Foundation (PJPF), the occasion gathered jeep enthusiasts from diverse backgrounds and professions, with only their devotion for the jeep as the common denominator. Later, after the agenda for the day had been properly dispensed with, the jeep comrades surveyed each others vehicles like kids inspecting each others toys. Much later, they chilled out over bottles of beer still talking about jeeps. No wonder author Ambrosio Makalintal, himself a certified jeep fanatic and considered one of the foremost experts on the subject, co-wrote a book entitled Jeep, Jeep, Jeep. Military jeeps are war relics. Theyre part of the countrys colorful history. Restoring a jeep to its old glorious self is like playing a jigsaw puzzle: You feel thrilled as everything falls into place.
