You're almost right. The company name was Willys. I've forgotten the history of who owned them when, but Willys was one of the first. Somewhere I have a video on the history of the Jeep. I'll have to look around for it.

Almost exactly as produced for the Army during WWII with the addition of a station wagon (the one we had, 1951 model). They rust horribly, although one does see one occasionally -- I remember that someone at Forestry Canada had one in the early 90's that was driven when the snow got out of hand in spite of the salt!
