In my discussions and conversations with many "non-Jeep" people, I am often confronted with the Army surplus "Jeep-in-a-crate" story. Although I've seen pictures from WWll in books of Jeeps disassembled and in crates, I have never heard of any Jeeper who claimed that his Jeep was bought in this way.
I was wondering if any of you have ever been told this myth or have any information on anybody getting a Jeep in this manner. It would almost certainly have to be a WWll Willys MB or a Ford GPW because the other Jeep models are all assembled at the factory, to my knowledge.
