Born from a 1940 U.S. Army urgent requirement, it was originally designed by the Bantam Car Company, but mass production was entrusted to Willys-Overland (and later Ford under license) to meet the enormous war demand. This example was produced in early 1944 and homologated for road use in 1957, retaining its original 1944 2,200 cc gasoline engine and registration as a 6-seat car on the official papers. EXTERIOR The bodywork shows a solid state of preservation, with a lovely patina and signs of aging. The canvas roof is present, complete, and in good condition. The original underbody, well preserved, with a solid chassis and no signs of accidents. The wheels have been refurbished in the past and, overall, the car presents itself in preserved and well-usable condition. INTERIOR The interiors have been restored in the past and today present themselves in good general condition, maintaining a pleasant and authentic patina of the era. The dashboard is complete with original instruments and well preserved, as is the rare era instrumentation, a feature that helps keep the cabin faithful to the model’s original layout. MECHANICS The car is equipped with the original engine bearing the MB-429037 code, consistent with the car’s 1944 production year, a four-stroke 2,200 cc gasoline engine, paired with a manual gearbox. The powerplant starts readily and runs, as does the braking system, converted to disc brakes for greater safety. The technical check is valid until October 2028 and was passed without any defects found; the vehicle is road-legal. Given the limited recent use, as with all collectible vehicles, a normal check before regular use is always suggested. A rare original Willys MB from 1944 is now scarce and increasingly difficult to find due to rising interest in this type of road-legal vehicles.
