1956 Willys Jeep
Add to SetSummary
Both Willys-Overland and subsequent brand owner Kaiser Motors marketed the civilian Jeep runabout with the word "Universal" -- both as a slogan and as a model name. It was a fitting description for a functional, flexible vehicle suitable for many different jobs -- from pulling farm equipment, to plowing snow, to simply running errands around town.
