Willys CJ3B Jeep Firetruck Video
We robbed this great video of a Willys CJ3B Jeep firetruck with Howe fire equipment from Ewillys.com While I have seen lots of photos of Willys Jeep fire trucks, I have never seen a video of one.

Made In Brazil Willys Jeep Wagon
A reader recently sent us a link to Rural Willys, a website dedicated to Willys Jeep Wagons built in Brazil. There was over 182,000 Rural Willys Wagons built in Brazil from 1958 to 1977. The basic body tub is the same, but is is obvious that there is a lot of differences between the Brazilian model and its American cousin. The first thing you notice is the different front end, but as you look closer, you can see the smaller details like different door handles, front and rear bumpers, tail lights, etc. What else do you notice that is different?
