@sonbuhitsunei Well for horses under the hood the ole "Go Devil" engine (troops would say "it goes like the devil!") makes about 60 or so, but it has 105 pound of torque. I've driven a 43 Willys before and it kept up in traffic no problem. Some folks retrofit signals and the like but other keeps their rigs stock. These machines were conceived, designed and built in an era when the USA had NO freeways, so surface streets are fine but a constant 60 MPH on the freeways isn't advised..

The jeep was one of the few pieces of machinery that could be flown in on gliders, making it much easier to bring in closer to the front. Also, its 4x4 feature make it cutting-edge in its day. It was also cheap and easy to mass produce.

@TacoSpock Couldn't you install some more modern components while retaining the outward look? I know, it wouldn't be "100% authentic" but I just like the look No turn signal would be more of an issue than no heater/a/c (the A/C in my Cherokee doesnt work, anyway!)...I suppose you would have to signal with your arm like a biker. I'm also guessing that these things would top out at something like 40 mph, maybe 50, so 70 mph freeway speeds would be a no-go lol ...pretty puny horsepower on em, too!

@sonbuhitsunei I just purchased a 90% restored WWII Jeep and it is indeed street legal. However, your insurance company is another matter. I will have to retrofit some seat belts on my Jeep in order to maintain my insurance. Other than that, considering there are NO: airbags, heater, A/C, turnsignals, power brakes, power steering, doors..and windows other than the front one, etc. So..check with your states DMV and your insurance company, it will take some extra effort but it can be done!

Some may think the WWII era Jeeps were ugly- I think they're beautiful works of utilitarianism. I'd love to rebuild one one day, though I'd like it more if it were somehow street legal, which, without airbags, I don't think it would be, would it? Plus, what's it's top speed? Could it even keep minimal speed on a road?
